Looking for a bit of advice - PVE/Dungeons

S/S and S/F IS the supporty weapon set you can bring to a PUG. Except for pistol (which you should also carry), our other weapons are basically crap.
The focus provides a unique pull as well as projectile defenses, and the offhand sword provides the strong phantasm as well as a block and aoe daze. Swap one of those weapons for the pistol when it’s more useful.

Build 2 and Build 5 in that link are the support options that a Mesmer can bring, yup. This is mostly in the form of condition cleanse + full reflect uptime. Depending on the dungeon, both of these things can be quite important/useful in carrying your team.
