Guild Wars 2

Short fight with me playing my phantasm greatsword scepter/pistol PU build versus a staff sword/focus shatter build. There’s a funny sequence where we steal about 15 might stacks back and forth using arcane thievery.

As always, pretty average play on my part, but I think the opponent is pretty good here (and he certainly doesn’t panic when low on health).

And more old guy music…

Nice Video and Nice Fight.

1 Duell vs one of the best Mesmer i have ever seen with Focus.

Thx! I see posts fairly often about why do you play Mesmer. So videos like this are a pretty good answer for me.

I know people will say phantasm builds are bad because they are AI builds and PU is bad and mesmers are in a bad place. But fights like these are a lot of fun for me (and hopefully for the opponent too). The fight feels very active with lots of decisions and quick reactions.

I tried to play a game of Sacred 2 on XBOX with a friend, and I felt like the combat just wasn’t that interesting after playing GW2.
