Guild Wars 2

I posted a similar thread in the General discussion forum. But like I mentioned there, I’d thought I’d mention here with my Mesmer family.

I’am truly hoping to get more lore surrounding our profession, as well as others knowing that Revenant is coming out and we will need a lore on that class. Conveying that, I’am also hoping that we get to see more of this mysterious, great, and beautiful Mesmer Collective that Countess Anise and Kasmeer are apart of. We do not know much about them at all, so I hope with the expansion, we will get more story on the organization of Elite Mesmers in Heart Of Thorns.

For anyone curious about the Mesmer Collective, here is the Wiki page for it.

( Edit: I found a interview with Angel McCoy, the woman behind the Lore and story for GW2. She states that there are Mesmeric Spells that are so powerful that only the most elite within the Mesmer community have the ability to use them. Here is a response from McCoy herself.

Esprits d’Orr : Are the illusions created by mesmers visible to anybody or only to the caster and the spell target ?

Angel McCoy : This depends. Casting an illusion that can only be seen by one person is an extremely advanced skill as it requires getting directly into an individual’s mind. Only the most skilled of mesmers can do this, and mesmers don’t talk about this ability. If people were to find out that mesmers could do this, it would prejudice people against mesmers and damage the trust and love mesmers work so hard to inspire in others.

No documentation of this ability exists outside the Mesmer community because the targets of this kind of spell don’t realize they’ve been duped. No one else can corroborate their experience either, so…it’s often explained away as battle fatigue. Even within the mesmer community, knowledge of this kind of spell is “need to know” only, which means only the most elder and experienced are initiated into the circle.)

I agree, I always thought it would be nice to have some story missions to pass before you could become a chronomancer, dragon hunter, reaper, etc. However, it sounds like this will not be the case. They make it sound like we are going to be able to spec into the chronomancer right away if we have hero points. Kinda disappointed by this.

Yea same here. I will be really kittened because I take the story of a game seriously and the classes. ANET did mention something about developing lore in game for the professions, I just hope its true
