Guild Wars 2

So, the title says it all. I need some help, i see mesmers all over the game, everyone with the same setup. I havent seen that many go with the swords. Would be awesome if you could help me setup a s/s build for pve. I dont really care what ’’type’’ of build it is. I just want the 2 swords in there..

I’d go with a 10/30/0/0/30 build. Might be a bit fragile but should have a lot of punch.
If you want a tankier build, you might find something in the list.

I did a 20/20/0/0/30 build with dual swords (basically Osi’s shattercat dual sword build). It worked very well, but I sometimes opt for a Focus, especially when I need the reflect or AoE.

I’ve been running this: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fgAQNAscBlwzipJVDtmExsAUFwOyMUtUr0Dcj3uQA

Glass cannon melee mesmers are incredibly viable in dungeons. I used to run a more phantasm focused build, but the changes to auto attack make the +%DMG traits much more worthwhile. Ran Arah P4 this morning and the build performed incredibly.

And the best reason to run dual swords: it looks awesome.

I want to wield just one (one-handed) sword, no offhand. Why? It’s more practical and it looks, in my opinion, cooler.

It’d be cool to have a “show/don’t show off hand weapon”. May be to much though. I like to know what I’m getting into before flying off into combat.
In all honesty an offhand sword would take the most benefit from power. So at least a 20/20/0/0/30 or 20/30/0/0/20 something. Zerker gear, knights or knights/valk mix. I did it while running in a smaller group that have all the swiftness I needed. S+S and GS. I ran it in a life steal build (busted now that the food has an internal cd).
