Guild Wars 2

I reaaallyyyyyyy was loking fowar for a fast Melee ilusionary assasin, or just a fast mesmer weapon… JUst sad sad face =( =( =(

Maybe in a few years.

I loved Illusionary Weaponry in GW1 myself! Maybe Mesmer will get some kind of Spellthief build as their eventual second Elite Specialization, if we’re lucky.

omg so much this!

One of the skills needs to be a gap closer + instant disengage OR more evade plz~

Ppl will QQ but it’ll be fine, we can just point to ranger and thief.

pfft I don’t want to waste my c/d. And that is a one way trip!

Thieves are already freaking out that we may be taking the role that they keep us from playing, giving us daggers will cause a riot.

Good. Name the illusion “Illusionary Thief” just to cement their one way ticket off a rooftop.

I hate the shield… I thought that we should have gotten dagger both a sMH and OH, as that is also very necromancery. And we are going for the necro synergy, no? That would at least have given us 5 new skills to work with, not just 2 with the shield. Would have REALLY changed the way I play this class, and that IS what they said about specializations, right? It will change how your class plays, its role in the game. Anyone feel like the existing chrono will change how you play mes? Not I, I am still just using sword when things come in range and waiting for my OH skills to come off CD…. oh, and waiting for the call for veil or port, since that is our perceived true utility.

Oh, and we do seem to have a thief based phantasm, it is our downskill that backstabs.

It’s actually pretty awesome.
I run rabid condi, and the iRogue still chunks off at least 25% (often more) of the hp of whoever’s trying to down me.
I’d love to be able to get that up without being downed, and on a power build.

Personally, I was hoping for pistol mainhand. We need a better power mainhand, and another ranged mainhand. Kill 2 birds with 1 stone!

Pistol for ranged power, dagger for melee condi?

Then with our 5 offhands that would open up a lot of cool options.

I just fell we need a fast weapon, the ones we have are clunky!! and just 2 new skills for the shield is not enough….

If Anet gives Mesmer a mainhand dagger before a mainhand pistol, I will riot.

I want mainhand dagger to be ranged

Val.7316:

This game’s playerbase has already shrunk enough over time

Yeah? You got some good numbers on that, do you?

(Holds up a pitchfork)
No crap. How long have folk on here been begging for MH Pistol?

mesmer seriously need another melee weapon. Dual daggers would be sexy.

One day, I hope to put my old Incinerator to use again. One day. I’m surprisingly happy with shield for now though. They did good on that weapon and its skills.
