Guild Wars 2

Renew the Grandmastertrait:

This trait is now called Explosive Shatters.

• Shatterskills are now explosion combo finishers.

Mesmers, discuss!

I am not sure if this could be really good or just another meh trait. On the one hand, you have the possibility of three blasts (assuming each cloneplosion is the equivalent of a blast) which is something that would be rather nice to have and rather epic.
But at the same time, to have to trait into a grandmaster line just for blasts.. I dunno, especially if it only includes as one blast. Seems like a hexy price to pay especially since I would assume that they would make it a illusions gm meaning you would have to give up IP.

A third shatter GM in a trait line that has nothing to do with shatters, eh.
I like the idea of the trait, and Disrupters Sustainment is a joke, but I’m not sure it fits into place.

Is a hexy price a cross between a heavy and a sexy price?

I don’t feel like this trait would fit in Illusions because we already have 1 extremly good grandmaster(iPersona), one build based grandmaster(diversion hits 5) and one grandmaster thats idea is great but needs a buff to be viable(maim).
Also it’d be always a better trait than disruptors sustainment. As neptune said:

I’d rather have a not fitting but good trait than a fitting bad one.

I coul imagine that this works with some pve builds that use 4 4 0 6 0 phantasm. Your phantasms would die either way so if you see the chance of using then on a firefield you could stack might quite easy.
