Mesmer Personality Quiz! Exclamation Points!
With the advent of Chronomancer and Heart of Thorns later this month, GW2 will be seeing some massive shifts in the known status quo. An idea that’s been rolling around in my mind is putting together a small team (4 or so people) to gather news on everything Mesmer. The topics would include…
The goal is to keep it simple, with a weekly or bi-weekly (fridays) report on everything related to Mesmer interests. Participants will be given 5g per article. Reports are expected to include.
- The current meta build at the time as well as upcoming potential builds.
- Any changes of note, mostly regarding how a Mesmer should approach said topic.
- New discoveries for said content as well as if a patch has made certain tactics unviable.
POTENTIAL REPORTERS
PvE
PvP
- Chaos Archangel
WvW
Misc
The weekly butterfly!! We so need a website to put that on (and keep archives)
Actually I think the whole gw2 community should have that. I would love to be able to browse through the archives and see for example the evolution of the PvP meta (I did not play since start, so I missed many interesting meta changes, like how the hell were spirit rangers ever good considering how bad spirits are atm?).
Short question: where do the 5 gold come from? community?

From my (painfully small) wallet. xD Though any donations/assistance would be grand.
A website you say? Hm.. I may have a talk with other-Fay about such things.

I could create a wordpress site super easy. I did for my pvp team, took maybe 1/2 hour. Just need to know the pages we want to set up, etc. If no wordpress, I’m not your dude cause I don’t know anything else =P
This sounds really great, I would donate to keep this going.
However… I hope you’re prepared for the mental/emotional/time investment required to maintain something like this. As someone who has led and organized many different kinds of events in other MMOs (mostly FFXI), Its not easy keeping anonymous ‘friends’ movitated and organized over the internet.
@Skcamow: Oh I will definitely be hitting you up about some things shortly!

Well that’s why I want to keep it simple. I won’t mind writing things up every other week as long as we can get the information gatherers. I really only intend on posting this onto the forums, but a small easy website for an archive and some builds would be awesome. The reason I wanna talk to Fay about it though is because she already has something going on that may work for this, just some technical things to iron out first.
I’ve got a couple things on my plate already, so I don’t wanna commit to something bigger than I can handle. This should be rather easy though, especially since it coincides with some Twitch-related plans I already have.
Sounds like a really cool idea. I’m too busy to really help with it, but I wouldn’t mind donating a little bit to the project.
I’m like to help with WvW content, though I’m a bit concerned server mismatches will be an issue.
I think you have it right with KISS, but I think you could make it easier on yourself, and on the ongoing success of a news outlet, if you relaxed the reporter format a bit.
You should find it easier to list a number of features and invite people to submit freely. Sure, find some people to be staple participants, but certainly don’t limit it just to them.
Anyway, I know you want me to put my pen forward and exercise my incredible word smithing skills, so I suppose I will.
I’ll mail some gold as a donation to help start this.
