I’m running a Chrono/shatter build, and everytime I face a Necro in PvP, I can’t take them down. Not only do they switch forms, but their Death Shroud makes me heal them, so I’m literally stuck running around waiting for their Death Shroud to add or I’m forced to do minuscule damage/heal them.

I just came back to HoT, and I’m really unsure of what to do. Are Mesmers overall still viable for 1v1 PvP?

2 things
1st- Chronomancer isn’t exactly the best 1v1 class right now .
2nd- Time your interrupt (Mantra of Distraction)
For Necromancer
Skill to interrupt are any of the heal skill (make sure you interrupt their heal), Life Siphon (main-hand dagger #2), Ghastly Claws (axe #2), Life Transfer (#4 in DS)
For Reaper
Soul Spiral (RS #4), Executioner’s Sycthe (RS #5)

Dealing with Condition – There is a not-so-popular-build for Chrono/Shatter build, It’s Dueling/Inspiration/Chrono, with Mantra of Recovery and Mantra of Pain. I run this build when i see more than 2 reapers on the enemy team
