My lil shameless bump, cuz I see the others doing it. @those who bump in the night

Theme sounds good – I like the displacement feature.

Elite skill is too similar to gravity well so I think that could be more unique.

Perhaps too much reflect will cause a lot of qq due to projectile hate.

But I like the core theme for sure.

I like the idea, but in all honesty I feel Mesmer has enough AoE-type utilities as is, especially with Chronomancer and Wells. What would be nice with your ESpec would be to give Mesmers Stances utility type. Considering your espec is heavily reliant on positioning, there’s ways to make it work nicely. Moreover, GW1 mesmers had a LOT of stances.
