Guild Wars 2

Hi,

i just started with sPvP after playing my Mesmer to 80.

I was always quite convinced about the Mesmer “Legion” Build as posted and VERY nicely explained from Taugrim here: http://taugrim.com/2012/09/23/guide-to-guild-wars-2-mesmer-legion-build/ . I even played that in PvE for the last 10 lvls to get used to the key bindings etc.

even though a beginner, i already won some 1vs1 situations, which sounds good for the build, right? but then i feel a bit squishy some times and also feel i miss some burst to end situations quickly (i can enter a fight with burst, but when i am inside there seems not much i can do create a pike). also when there are more than 2 people on each side, i feel like missing some aoe. thought about an alternative build like that one: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/mesmer/Celestial-Madonna-sPvP-build … but i wanted to get some opinions before switching away from what i am used to, obviously have to learn a lot on the new one.

so my question is: what is your opinion on the legion mesmer for pvp? should i stick to it and try to master more aspects of pvp (i just discovered that i can blink at certain places up, which is boosting my survivability quite a lot). or should i rather focus on training into another pvp build that will be more efficient in the long run?

all comments are welcome.

Cheers M

not sure if i dont get answers because the question was put in a stupid way. let me try to rephrase:

do people still successfully use the phantasms build in pvp or is that an outdated build for pvp ?

I still use my Phantasm Build though it is drastically different than the normal phantasm builds you linked. Still viable still fun to use. I often am top scorer in tournaments even though really scored don’t mean crap.

Greatsword, Sword/Sword, give that a try. Fay’s build is also a very good zerker phantom build.

thanks, fay’s build i have not seen before. i tried a similar, i guess i have to practice blocking more, been not very successful in pvp with it so far.

I run a build similar to the old legion build. Just traited a lil different
