I log back into Guild Wars 2 on one of my favorite classes, Mesmer (other being Engineer), and I haven’t played in at least a year.

I log in, and my build is wiped, most likely due to the many changes made to the game, and I don’t remember what I was doing. My only clue would be the equipment I was wearing when I logged in.

Basically all my gear(except my weapons, because for some reason they are statless, which I can add stats to) is based around Power, Precision and Ferocity. I don’t remember if Ferocity was a thing back when I quit because for some reason it feels alien to me, but I know it increases Critical Damage.

I just want to know what I can do within the limitations of these three stats:
- Power
- Precision
- Ferocity

Reason I don’t want to change my build is because I remember spending a long time crafting my current equipment (Orange).

Ferocity is a relatively new stat they introduced to keep us from adding too much crit damage and having too much of a power creep. But yeah it increases crit damage by 1% for each 15 points of ferocity.

And thats a good gear set for PvE content, as its max damage, but I think mesmers benefit a bit more from having a few assassin’s (++prec +power +feroc) pieces mixed in for more crit chance.

Theres a pve build guide floating around here somewhere but I think its 6/4/0/0/4 with empowering mantras and sword/sword/focus no GS.
