First off I will admit to being pretty new to the mes. I have one of everything else, I leveled the mes long ago and sort of forgot about it.

Been having fun with it in sPvP today… I have been running something like this build here. This build is a WvW variation I am thinking about. Only real question I guess… is what is the general thought on using a good amount of Celestrial gear on a mes. Looking at the stats I am thinking it should be a good mix… with my build and play style which pretty much revolves around countering and laying on the confusion.

Any thoughts or tips are appreciated.

I have an Ascended Celestial set on my mesmer but only because I am/was/still plan to only ever make one set of ascended armor. The set is not working as well as I would like in WvW, but I don’t have to carry around and change up sets for everything I do in-game.

I can play WvW. I’m not a rally bot, but I know I could be a lot more effective with a PVT setup.

Celestial is not great. Sure you can kill noobs and be more or less effective with power builds that utilize bleeds and high regeneration uptime, but keep in mind that in WvW you will meet people fully stacked with specialized food buffs that will greatly overpower you assuming similar skill simply because they are build to kill and you are not.

Celestial gear for condition builds is completely horrible though, so forget that.

Fair enough. was wondering if it would be worth putting the effort into craft a full set. Sounds good. I’ll exotic it up then and perhaps slowly replace with ascended, instead of worrying to much about it.
