Hey guys,
i just ended planning my zerker shatter mesmer build that i’ll try in wvw and maybe also in pvp (with a possible weapon change or sth)

first of all, i am not an extremely experienced mesmer, i played quite a bit lately and i know a bit as well, but before mesmer i mainly played thief (s/d evade, d/d stealth) and engi (condi and static discharge) in wvw

anyway, here’s my Build

i’ve got two short questions though:
a) does “mender’s purity” remove 2 condis both on charging the mantra and on each activation, as shown in the build editor?
b) with this trait setup and stuff, would you reccomend me to go for gs+staff, gs+sword/torch or staff+sword/torch?
or is this totally in my hand and doesnt affect the build a lot?

and i know that my trait setup is pretty much the same as the usual 44006 trait setup with just 2 points switched around for the 24206
i just love the tripe stunbreak though and wanted to try the healing mantra in combination with “mender’s purity” so that i could go for Mirror Images instead of Mantra of Resolve
What do you think of the build overall?

Thx

Well, my first question is what part of WvW do you intend on using this in?

Mender’s purity only removes on the activation of the charges, not on the charging itself unfortunately. On-heal runes like centaur or balthazar will activate on both the charging and activation though.

In wvw i’m almost always solo-roaming, sometimes when i meet some friends we roam as 2 or 3 people

So my heal would leave me with a single 2×2 condi remove on a mantra with a 10s cd… i think i’ll have to work on that ^^

So i’ve reworked my Build and i’ve still got two questions:
(mostly solo roaming btw)

a) should i rework some stats? because especially with bloodlust and wvw stack my power would end up being high enough for me to sacrifice a bit for toughness.
(some berserker into assassins, some berserker into cavaliers’ = more toughness, less power, same crit chance, same crit dmg)

b) for wvw solo roaming, what weapon combination would you recommend?
gs + staff
gs + sword/torch
staff + sword/torch

Thx

I run Sword/Pistol and Staff when roaming.

If you want to make the most of your staff, you should consider Bountiful Interruption as a trait, as well as Masterful Reflection (It’s hilarious when pistol teefs try to burst you *edit: Or rifle warriors. Or rangers. Or rifle engis)

When you’re taking camps, the chaos storm will get you 18-25 stacks of might with BI, and you will get a magical boost to 3300 power. I put illusionary Elasticity in there because come september Staff will be ze bestest.
