Guild Wars 2

Hello guys,

Left the game a year and half ago and I just returned and I am LOST. I have tried to read all wiki pages and sticky build threads here in the forums but all are outdated.

My mesmer was lv80, full berserker gear and Greatsword // Sword + Focus.

I used to play a phantom build, but I read now shattering is the way to go? Can anyone point me to some good and updated builds for my weapons? Dungeon/Fractals and PvP if possible, thanks a lot

Or show me some page where I can gather updated information on most used builds?

Best I can tell, most mesmers are reserving judgement and build strategies for when the HOT expansion drops. Until then, you and I are, for the most part, SOL. That said, I’m messing around since I have no clue what I’m doing at all.

Actually we have a number of builds that are accepted as viable, both condi and power.

Here’s a few for PvP

• Phantrupt

the killshot mesmer link is for another class, was that a mistake? could you link the good one? thanks!

It’s a joke. He tells it every chance he gets.

What, pre-tell, are you insinuating!

Killshot Mesmer is one of my all time favorites.

Could you guide me for some pve builds too please?

Full Zerker gear with sword/sword/focus, trait for phant/sword/focus CD’s for more summons, and spam AA’s. I like a sigil of speed on my sword for ridiculous swiftness uptime.

Oh, and it might pay to ask someone who actually PvE’s since I can’t recall how many years ago I even ran around in that realm of the game :p

I had a scepter equipped at the time btw ;D
