I need a shatter build for PvE & tPvP, but I’m not experienced enough to create one.
I would like to play with greatsword and sword/focus if possible.
Does someone know a good build?
Is it possible to combine shatter with phantasm damage, first let out the phantasms and after they have done their attacks shatter them?
How do I best get rid of conditions without a torch?

Shatter builds aren’t meant for PvE, they’re almost entirely inferior to Phantasm builds.

For PvP, ya may wanna check this out: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/mesmer/Supcutie-s-Comprehensive-PvP-Shatter-Guide/first

This is what most mesmers run in PvP, including Helseth and Supcutie. If you need builds, the site has ~80 builds currently, categorized by gamemode and effecitveness.

You will have a hard time against condi specs, shatter mes mostly relies on allies to remove those unless you take either Lyssa runes or Nullfield.

Thank you for the link, I did not know that phantasm builds are used for PvE.

Question: Is it possible to make a successful tPvP condition shatter build?
With Illusionary Retribution and Maim the Disillusioned one should be able to stack confusion and pain fast, especially with the new sceptre auto attack.
