Guild Wars 2

I’m a fairly new mesmer but I’ve recently started running around in WvW with some of my thief friends. What would be a good build that would allow me to at least somewhat keep up with them and pester the local keeps? Most of our time will be in small skirmishes and never engaging any zerg directly.

Condi build, staff and scepter torch. Equipped with blink and decoy and signet of domination or arcane thievery and mass invisibility. You can use Superior Rune of Traveller on full rabid set.

Why, because they will be moving fast so should you. Why condi build with torch because you want some invisibility as well otherwise you will get all the attention. Staff is self explanatory I guess. Also they will probably be direct damage so a condi build would go along great.

Could you post a link to a video of someone doing similar to this? Maybe by watching someone else do it I’ll stop being the black-sheep and getting found by the zerg all the time.

Well that will require some getting used to the mechanisms of the mesmer and forming a flow of skills that best suits you and the situation.

Osi came to my mind as he usually uploads a lot of videos and has switched to condi mesmer.

I think this might be helpful. Check other videos from him too if you like.
