What's your favorite mesmer weapon(s)?
Sword.

Lyssa’s Grimoire – a guide every Mesmer should read.
greatsword/staff, greatsword/staff and quite possibly greatsword/staff.
With 3 different greatswords and staves.
Another more exotic combo might be staff/greatsword.
Go Norn or go home!
Greatsword for the show!
Nothing looks better!
The Leveling & Open World Compendium
Scepter + Sword!
Altering my post to only have 1 weapon combo :P
Sword/Sword
Good AA, distortion + really good dmg, cripple/immobilize, block with good dmg AND a clone/or a daze if the situation calls for it, and a very good dmg phantasm. What’s not to like. Oh and with one trait, you can have all of these tools at a 20% CD reduction.

I gues OT meant “weapon” not “weapon*s*”. :P
For me it’s the Staff. I like the way he works, also he’s got the most kitten AoE in the whole game, that sound, that feeling, that “goodforme-badforyou” effect. If I could choose just one weapon for eternity? STAFF IT IS!

He did say weapon combo but mentioning 4 weapons on my part, may have been too much haha
sword… BF and Ileap are too fun to live without.
A PvE player is supposed to avoid a 1-2 second 1 shotting aoe.
A WWW player is considered uncapable of avoiding a 5,75 second aoe for half his health.
Staff
/15characters
I like all the weapons, but my absolute favourite weapon is the Focus, and I can’t put it into words how awesome this weapon is, but I think Vash gives it justice in one of his youtube videos
For weapon combo, it’d be sword/pistol + scepter/focus
Sword/Focus/Staff. Pistol for Honorable Mention.
Other 80s: Any but Warrior
Staff all day for everything forever
I can never leave home without my torch!
Staff with torch a close second.
Pistol. Sword’s good, but jeez it’s dull.

“colesy’s on rampage today. Slaying casuals left, right and centre” – spoj
Pistol. Was GS back when iZerker was a guaranteed 4k+ damage and had no delays on attack but now its kinda meh.
Sword MH – specifically Bonnetti’s Rapier.
Setup-wise, my fave set is Sword/Pistol
I have Sword/Focus as my switch-set much of the time, though I change weapon loadouts as needed by the situation.
Focus.
A unique CC, not-too-shabby-dmg phantasm, can be a reflection machine, swiftness/cripple, and my Anomaly is a freaking purple glowing ball.
Most used: Guard/Mes/War/Nec/Ele.
Yes, i use 5 chars at time. Because REASONS.
Favorite Weapon – Greatsword: It’s just too much fun to run around and kill things from range before they reach you with a pretty looking weapon. I just generally find all the skills on this weapon to be fun to use in open world pve and in spvp for certain builds.
Favorite Weapon Combo – Sword/Pistol: Magic bullet, iDuelist, blurred frenzy, ileap, boon stripping. This weapon combo is extremely effective and very satisfying to use. I pretty much have to employ this in any spvp build I use since I enjoy it so much.
