Guild Wars 2

As the title suggests, this means scepter torment is only applicable when you trait for Miam the disillusioned. Just want to get some thoughts about this one, see if going down illusion traitline really counters PU + scepter.

x/x/6/x/6 means you really have 2 traits left. Without DE the only way for you to generate scepter clones is through the long AA chain or utility. Less clone generations so less clone death pressure. Also no bleed on illusion crit so you basically trade bleed with torment, instead of having all.

All the while granting torment AA to condi-shatter. This provide a decent condition damage for scepter shatter mesmer to sustain between shatters. Just adds a little more offense in shatter build and see if it is worth the while to take over PU survivability.

Plus its a way for the devs to avoid massive nerf demands without reverting/take back what they said, and a way for us to avoid the nerf storm.

So what are your guys thoughts?

Just let it happen. Just accept it. That is what I think about it.

ANet has an internal testing team, it passed. Does it make sense? I don’t know. I do not care.
But please, the whining about this is so bad, that the mesmer community is drowning in bad PvP players tears.

The last time I saw so much whine was when I went to France.

Well done sir,you made me giggle a bit.

I say at least try it first before you judge it. Give it a good week of testing in various situations before you decide if it’s over-powered or not.
