Guild Wars 2

Hey everyone. I´m Flux and here is my new pretty comprehensive guide video.

I see a lot of ppl having difficulties vs thieves as a power mesmer and a video like this was reguested from me a several times. I really hope this guide helps some ppl to deal with thieves better.

For me it was actually pretty hard guide to make cos fighting thieves is a lot about knowing how they play and like to do stuff. Predicting is a big part when fighting them. There is still a lot of tricks what you can do and you can find them from the guide.

I know that power mesmer is not very popular choise right now but some ppl still play it and maybe in the future if we get buffs this guide will help a lot more new and experiensed players.

Tell me what you think.

Thank you so much for taking the time to do this. I enjoyed the guide and took away a much better understanding of vault vs bound. Not an avid PvPer, but I’ll start looking for some of those non-teleport spots in WvW too. Thanks!

It’s especially helpful to be able to see the visual tells between the various fairly similar looking skills in play.

Very nice video! Thanks!

This is great! Fantastic! Thank you!

Excellent insights into what has been one of the toughest match-ups for me since 2012! I learned a lot.

Thank you all so much for the positive feedback. I´m really happy that the guide turned out to be so helpful.

There’s an aweful lot of text which breaks up the flow of the video, personally I think these kinds of guides are better with audio descriptions rather than walls of text plastered all over the video. A great example of this is where you advise about stow weapon to counter ID.

There’s a lot of good advise there however as I said it would be much better if what was typed was said instead.

I agree that it would be better as a commentary and not text. I just personally dont feel comfortable making a commentary because I am not a native english speaker. It would have been too hard for me so I had to do it this way. Thank you for your feedback. I have been thinking about trying commentary on some more simple video.

If you have a friend who speaks ok English and doesn’t have a voice that puts people to sleep, like me, then you can always ask them to record the audio for it essentially reading the text.

Audacity is a free audio editor which is more than enough to produce decent audio, just remember to amplify, use leveler and then normalise the audio so the difference between the loud and quieter parts isn’t as great.

Thanks for the good tip. I will keep that in mind.

It’s a good video, unfortunately the basic message is “use terrain exploits to deal with this broken class”.

Ridiculous how thieves get in offhand pistol what mesmer needs to sacrifice a utility slot for to interrupt, and their interrupt is not only more spammable, but it has a built in power block that does metric tons of damage.

Great video, I learned a lot and hopefully get ganked by thieves less often. Thanks for sharing!
