Mesmer levelling tips
For leveling you’re gonna want to tag as many mobs as possible to get more experience. I highly suggest staff as it has bouncing attacks and our aoe as mesmers is pretty lack luster. Also, get used to using shatters to finish nearly dead enemies as your clones/phantasm will die when your target dies. Mind wrack is also good for the aoe learn to kite early and use phase retreat to avoid dying and for your second weapon its up to you. Sword pistol is fun, and loading up several pistol phantasm will help you deal with a big boss.
Tbh, and mesmer is a hard class to get off the ground, but you’ll feel more like a true mesmer once you hit 40s once you can have access to master traits :P we’d don’t have simple damage output like warriors and thieves, but instead need to trait and gear and do bigger combos to do the same. Our strength is on our utilities, tricks, in fight mobility and our huuuuuge team fight skills.
