Guild Wars 2

Link to the new Fractal update page. Please tell me what weapon that Mesmer is using?

I’m talking specifically this picture here .

Rifle confirmed?

lol.

Holy mother…… I am speechless. I actually do not really want a Rifle tho. Some MH weapon or OH weapon for me. Will be interesting to see what skills will come up with this if it becomes a Mesmer weapon. Thanks for postin Eliesume.

Seriously Anet?

ugh.

Lol. You guys do realize that the character in the picture is under the effect of confusion, not a mesmer?

I don’t think that’s a Mesmer but instead another class who is suffering from the confusion condition, hence the butterflies and purple aura around his head. Sorry to disappoint.

EDIT: kitten someone beat me to it while I was writing :P

O thank the Anet lords. Didn’t think about it that much. When is this giant patch coming anyway? I haven’t played in about a month or more cause well the game is boring now. Need something to spice it up.

Lmao, at first I was like “GASP!” and then I was like “oh…” I never noticed butterflies coming out when people are confused, just the aura, which just shows how much of a mesmer thing confusion is.

Cool, so Mesmers get medium armor now?

Looks like medium armor to me.

And im super excited for the new fractals :D

Yeah, why the hype? This is a medium armour class affected by Confusion, which that boss applies.

Medium Armor, rifle mesmer OP!

OP fell for A-nets troll.

This is all a test to see how perceptive their community is so they can gauge animation changes… IT’S ALL A CONSPIRACY!

It’s a modified Flame Thrower: the new Clone Thrower INSTANT ARMY OF ME!

Still, even if the rifle is just a medium armor class, the one holding the hammer could be a light armor class, since the headpiece seems fairly similar to the cabalist’s set one (http://www.gw2armorgallery.com/human-light.htm#standard).

Sadly, I don’t recognize the rest of the set the character is wearing, so I’m not quite sure if it could actually be a light-armor class holding a hammer.

Ps. This is just me running my mouth, but a hammer mesmer could be fun, maybe more dazes and a 2h melee weapon.

Its the only thing i really really wanted….more classes with rifle.

In lieu of a phantasm, the mesmer rifle just summons a random zerker rifle warrior player from whatever he is doing, gives him full adrenaline and marks your target as hostile. If the target dies, it gives the warrior a champion loot bag and sends him on his way.

That Fractal looks like its the one where you have to shatter the statues armour plates and climb up to the boss fight.

You also bow at the end

The projectiles the Archdiviner shoots when he swirls around hit like a truck and inflict confusion.

Imagine the rage if they gave us rifle xD
We need a new one-hander!

Hammer Mesmer… hmm…

Yup, mine would be named Haft. They’d say this charr Haft is one bad mesmer—

Shut your mouth!

But I’m talkin’ ’bout Haft.

The hammer guy is the cultist boss you fight in the colossus fractal :P

Aaaah kitten , I’m not fond of fractals, I have barely played one or two, so I didn’t know

A mesmer in medium armor? Answer is clear. This is not our new weapon.

Why do we need another MH weapon? because it creates Build diversity. People keep taking at least 1 TWo handed weapon because it provides them good survivability when facin more than 2 or 3 people. Now, what does Scepter do? 1 on 1. That’s it. That means once you switch to Scepter, you are more prone to being assaulted by your enemies.

So if we are going to have a MH pistol, let the skills be this

1. Auto Attack

3rd auto attack has ricochets to another target. 50% chance to ricochet to third target.
the third auto attack and all the ricochets inflict blind.

2. #2 skill
Fire a slow moving orb that when explode on impact, deals AoE Confusion, and create a cloud of butterflies that relflects projectiles

3. #3 Skill
Fire at the ground, create a very small empty void of stealth, and disappear for 2 seconds. Does AoE Damage.

So what I am saying is we should be able to obtain another Ranged MH weapon that provides stealth and some AoE capabilities. Then I feel like there won’t be any complaints for a while, and there will be *Soo MUch more builds*

give us pistol main hand pls.

kthxbye

Too bad, i was looking forwards to an illusionary fusilier phantasm with killshot when i saw that picture :p

Yes.Yes.Yes.

It looks more like an engi with a rifle who had confusion inflicted on them. See the black aura around his/her head? Thats a condition inflicted.

The Clone Thrower suggestion above is awesome, but let me instead suggest a Butterfly Caster , loaded with pink awesome!

I’d rather dual wield fans than have a whip, but I must say it would be quite interesting

ANet, please hire this man!

If that’s what that is I agree. Rifle doesn’t suit mesmer.
