Guild Wars 2

How much survivability do mesmers have in wvw? I know they’re a fun/good class for wvw but how are they survival wise?

Depends on build.
I’m running lvl 40ish conditional mesm in wvw (T1) and i die rarely. We have nice escape and confusing (not the condition, the real mental confusion) skills.
If you’ll be using a glassy build, you’ll deffinately be dead pretty fast.

Mesmers are very good at survival, but they require more player skill than most to be any good. You can not just spam one or two skills.

There are a lot of combos that work very well like Chaos storm , Illusionary leap, clone/mindwrack, sword 2, staff 2. Be quick at this and your target may already be dead if your a shatter build.

Know your field combos to bring up Chaos Armor often.

It just depends on what kind of play style and what weapons you want to use

Survival with a Mesmer comes from knowing how a situation can develop. If a zerg ends up chasing you, you won’t have enough swiftness or stealth to run away. At least not in the low levels. In the water, a Mesmer can be fast with the spear, though. But on land, you need to have good battle awareness, so you can get a head start if a zerg attacks. Escaping comes down to using a mixture of clones, stealth, and what little swiftness you can get.

When it comes to fighting, the Mesmer is as good as anywhere ells. Clones, stealth, and teleportation skills, makes the Mesmer capable of going into big fights, and then escape again unharmed.
