Guild Wars 2

I was inspired by some pics i found of a player who created a mesmer that looked like a phantasm, so i decided to see if i could get close. What do you guys think?

The image shows myself, one phantasm (warlock), and one clone. Any advise getting even closer to making my mesmer look more phantasm-like would be appreciated. =D

Wow, that actually looks pretty awesome. O:

Perhaps if you’re using a sword and/or GS and/or pistol (etc), you could get one of those purply glowy weapons (pretty expensive though) and look completely like a phantasm!

@Deathreign Thanks a lot man! Do you happen to know the name of the weapon? I’ll prob go pic one up =D

edit: I actually found it never mind =D time to start saving lol

Got a night shot also but her color is off =/

Very clever! You’ve got it pretty spot on! I agree…add the purple glowing greatsword or another weapon with a similar skin and you’ll look almost identical

Can you tell us what colours you use please?

For PvP, perhaps, rename yourself to something close to “Phantasmal Warlock” and you’ll confuse your opponents with clones, yourself, and phantasms.

i regre tnot making a sylvari mesmer and i lack char slots to make a sylvari mesmer…

Vision of the Mists, Whisperblade, Abyssal Scepter, Lyss and Ilya are the only ones that phantasms use, I think.

They are about 250g each on the TP iirc, so they’re pretty costly. Would complete your phantasm look, though!

@ Dennis Sure thing, I used the orchard chest, pants, and boots and hid the helm and shoulders. The gloves are transmuted to profane.

The dyes used are Rose Ice And Celestial. Everything has it’s main color attribute set to Rose Ice and the gloves and boots use Celestial for the highlights. The hair is white and the skin is a lighter pink with the darker pink glow at night.

@Dondagora I really like this Idea and will definitely be doing that =p

@Wyrden imo it would certainly be worth it to reroll a sylvari mesmer, they are just so cool looking =p

@Lydon Thanks man =D

@Deathreign Thanks for the info that helps, and yeah ill def be picking them up as soon as I can. They look so great with the phantasm setup and definitely complete it.

Well played good sir, well played. I’m ever so tempted to do this if I get more character slots.

@Waynesyaboy Thx, but i was asking for the Dyes, not the Skins^^

@Dennis o sure! Just use Rose ice on everything and toss in Celestial highlights on the boots and gloves (if you choose not to hide them), you may want to consider celestial dye on the pants as a highlight also, but I like the Rose Ice more.

So you mean name yourself like every other mesmer that’s ever played this game?

The amount of “Illusionary [insert name]” Mesmers I’ve seen speaks wonders to the originality of our player base.

You’re missing the point that if you want to cause confusion by looking exactly like a phantasm that you also increase that confusion by naming yourself likewise.

That’s incredible. Didn’t even know sylvaris could look identical to phantasms. o_o

@WhiteRose You cannot have the word “Illusionary” or “Illusion” in your name =p it is not allowed and won’t let you use it at all. And as far as “phantasmal” the only names that I noticed were taken were the “phantasmal x” where x is one of the mesmer phantasms and and a few others like “Phantasmal Warder” or “Phantasmal Ghost” i searched for about 45 mins and found tons open.

@storiessave Ty man. Yeah, theres a thread by another player who did a great job also. I tweaked his setup a bit and used a female instead of a male.

Now that’s a real mesmer!

@Alex Thanks man. It makes playing my mesmer incredibly entertaining. =p
