[List] Find your Mesmer Builds & Guides!
When you have the time, can you add my Celestial sPvP build under Shatter builds?
Thanks for the great list of builds!
Thanks for the list! I’m looking forward to using this class when I start the game.
I removed all out of date builds or that I couldn’t discern whether it was still viable. I had a short time to go over the list so if I removed your build by accident and it’s still good let me know and provide a link.
If you have a build that’s not on the list also let me know on here so I can add you I will be checking this thread fairly regularly from now on but I don’t yet have the time to go through all previous topics to actually find which builds should be on it but aren’t right now.
If you aren’t the build owner you can link builds on here that you would recommend to be on the list as well.
Again sorry for the inconvenience!

I think this is still a great Dungeon/Fractals build (the build on the first page). I use it in dungeons and fractals and can’t see any problems with it. The bonus is you only need to change a few major traits if you want to switch from Focus to Pistol or Sword to Scepter for certain bosses.

Okay I’ve added this build to the list Thanks for the recommendation.

Fay, I’d like to request a couple builds be added:
The Zerg Soldier: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/mesmer/The-Zerg-Soldier-WvW-Build
Hidden Fire: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/mesmer/Hidden-Fire-New-Mesmer-Build-WvW
Both appear to be solid builds that would make great additions to the list.

Please wipe this thread, now obsolete
Hi Fay, when you get a chance, can I request my builds to be on the list? Technically, it’s 1 build and an alternate variant, but both still serve the purpose of being a hybrid power/condition. It is updated as of June 25th, but the build calculator website isn’t yet. Once it does, I’ll update the links.
Flowing Images: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/mesmer/Builds-Flowing-Images-25th-patch-update/first#post1821367
So far, it works great in PvE and dungeons and shows a uncommon combo of scepter/pistol + staff (or other weapons).
Hello Fay, can you please add my build? It’s entirely based on:
- crit on bleeding
- mass conditions
- interrupts
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/mesmer/Guide-Illusionary-Bomberman-PvX-build
P.s. It was designed for sPvP, but it also works great in PvE and small scale WvW.

Thanks Fay. A couple more support builds – one in my signature and jportell’s protection master: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/mesmer/Build-Protection-Master-Thoughts/first#post2232444
There seem to be more coming with the prismatic understanding buff. I’ve seen some great ideas the past couple days.

Which of these builds are no longer really applicable due to recent patches? I hesitate to pull a build that is from a 5 month old thread…

Which build is this? Sometimes build threads show as many months old but the original post gets updated, date of updating a post is listed at the bottom of each post but if you notice any inaccuracies please let me know so I can correct it on the list

Disregard, the two builds I was looking at were just updated yesterday, sorry for the trouble.
What is most suitable build for GS/staff full berserker gear atm?
and is there a better DMG build, I mean with other weapons and gear that can be achieved?
Hey fay, just wanted to see if you could have a look at my build and see for yourself if it is viable enough for a spot on your list, I believe that a lot of players looking for condition builds may benefit from viewing it,
were is the condition staff/sceptre/torch build?

right above you ^^
Hey Fay. I figured you might wanna add this to the list:
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/mesmer/SUPPORT-Mesmer-Spotlight/first#post2304257
Which gives a nice list of all the support builds.
Also, my guide has evolved to incorporate multiple builds.

That depends on what game mode you intend to use it for

Hello Fay:
I’ve posted a dungeon/fractal build that you may want to add to your list. It’s the standard phantasm/support fare for those who want to run dungeons.

Fay, here are a few builds posted in the past few weeks that I request be added to the list:
- Winterfell (Very High Condition): https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/mesmer/Build-Very-High-Condition-sPvp-WvW-PvE
- Ross Biddle (Poisoned Apples): https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/mesmer/Build-Poisoned-Apples
- keenlam (The Clone Spammer): https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/mesmer/condition-build-The-Clone-Spammer
- Varconi (Condition Build for Roaming WvW): https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/mesmer/BUILD-Condition-build-for-roaming-WvW
- skcamow (ChillRuption): https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/mesmer/Build-ChillRuption
Most of them are condition builds, except for mine which can go condition or power. Thanks everyone for posting these builds! The variety is great to see and I’ve enjoyed reading through and learning from all of them.
My current Mesmer build with detailed explanations for each choice. “DPS Support” for WvW and PvE content mostly. Seems to fit the new “Meta” build.

Hi Fay!
First off, thank you for continue making and maintaining this list of amazing builds for us! I wanted to let you know that I’ve modified my builds and have only two versions of them. I’ve been playing with them since late July and I believe they’ve gotten improved and still apply to the theme I have:
Flowing Images – Critical 10/30/0/10/20 and Flowing Images – Shatter 10/20/10/0/30
Edit: Critical build uses Scepter/Pistol + Greatsword while Shatter build uses Scepter/Pistol + Staff (but I’ve added alternative weapon choices as options in both guides).
(edited by Phloww.1048)
Pyro’s thoughts on his Immortal Mesmer build:
Having played extensively since the big patch, I’ve come to the unfortunate conclusion that this build is no longer viable. The retaliation trait was the very basis of this build. With that trait effectively gone, this build no longer has any offense available to it, and simply becomes a difficult to kill Mesmer that you can completely ignore.
I will be adding this note to the beginning of the build. Many of the tips and tricks I have in the guide are still helpful and valid, so I’ll be leaving it up, but until Anet fixes the retaliation trait into a form that isn’t worthless, this build will unfortunately remain unplayable.
I’ve updated the list thanks guys

Fay, can you add Lazy Kai’s leveling build? It’s still valid and updated recenly by the OP.

Just wondering if you could put this build up as well
It’s a condi mantra build, with staff scepter torch. It’s called The Corrupt Condition Mesmer.

Hey Fay, I ran out of editable space in my old guide, so I put all the things in a new complete one, which offers me some room to expand.
Maybe you can change the link in the list to
The Leveling & Open World Compendium

umm, there isn’t any GSword & Sword/Pistol build for WvW, they don’t work well in WvW or what?
i use that and i like WvW so i wanted to learn more about my build but there isn’t any?

I would check out the builds that use gsword & sword/focus or sword/sword. They should be in-line with sword/pistol builds.
I’d personally probably go for/try something like this:
I went for more precision/crit there so your duelist illusion will stack more bleeds. Other than that it would be a pretty standard power build. I added some vitality to it so you wouldn’t drop like a fly instantly but if you mostly run with the zerg I would try to add more toughness/vitality as the power of a zerg comes from it’s numbers and ability to survive, not so much pure damage.
If you prefer skirmishing however and are used to running Berserker you can take the chance and go less tanky just don’t be surprised to get steamrolled by an enemy zerg. If you like to shatter more than keep your phantasms up you’d want to go into Illusions more and I’d also check out Osicats builds: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/mesmer/Guide-WvWvW-Pve-Shatter-Cat-Updated-16-8
