Phantasm is still as strong as ever...
The doom and gloom preaching isn’t about phantasm builds, it’s about everything else. This is the most ironic part of the whole thing. The nerf seemed to be targeted at phantasm builds, and yet phantasm builds are the least affected by the nerf, because it nerfed the WRONG part of the builds.

Yea Pyro you’re a good guy and pretty helpful, but sometimes you talk a little too much lol. No offense though
Gaidax, would you mind posting your phantasm mesmer build? I would love to see it as I’m new to mesmer! Hope you can help me! haha :]
After this patch, I shelved my phantasm build and started trying different shatter builds. None performed as well for me as my phantasm build had. So I shifted the 5 points out of Illusions and went back to my phanstasm build. I noticed the longer cool downs, but the change turned out to be minor. As for the Blurred Frenzy nerf… Well, that is a topic for another thread.
So much kitten peeps. I think it is pretty obvious that anet doesn’t want high killing power without some sacrifices.
In particular, i honestly feel bunker builds that can kill passively and easily, should vanish from this world.
So only the collateral damage of screwing pve players had an impact?
nice to know…..
In PvE the nerf is way more than noticeable.
A PvE player is supposed to avoid a 1-2 second 1 shotting aoe.
A WWW player is considered uncapable of avoiding a 5,75 second aoe for half his health.
even more powerful with Berserker hitting like a truck (up to 5.3k)
loldragoon… er, lolmesmer.

I’m talking about sPvP, son. Not your PvE 100 percent+ crit nonsense.

I do not see exactly what do you want to explain regarding the topic ?
I just see nothing but pure personal offense here.
He means that pyro mentioning phantasm builds not being completely kitten means they’ll get hit with the nerf bat again.

Erf…ok ok I am sorry :-)
I fear I am still not too used to the nerf bat chains.
We have a sentence in France for that: “Pour vivre heureux…vivons cachés”
which I would translate this way: “To live happy, live in secret”

I nvr checked if true, but according to the tooltips Illusionary Celerity nvr stacked with each weapon’s traited recharge reduction for Illusions.
What i did notice after the patch was that the traited recharge reduction i had for 2 weapons worked fine. So, that softens the pain a bit (for Illusionary Celerity change)
I was worried i had to retire my illusions based PvE mesmer to, tnx to nerf to Illusionary Celerity and Vengefull Images.
But after playing a bit, i did not notice i had more trouble.
And yes, i also took the 5 points i had in Illusions trait out of it.

But if that was pve 100 percent crit nonsense, then it would show “blahblah invader” instead of “Drfabulous and Last Frost”.

It stacked, except for a few ones. The tooltips were incorrect though.

Wasn’t worth addressing after he overlooked that fact and called me “son.” ;p

Yup mesmers are basically forced to go phantasm build now since no other viable builds are available in PVP.
