Guild Wars 2

It’s been a while since I’ve seen a tower flipping mesmer build so I thought I’d add one for anyone interested.

The armor is full nomads, with cleansing and energy sigils on both weapon sets. The rest is up to preference.

I used to flip Keeps with my Mesmer prior to the build changing patch… not sure if it will be easier now that I switched from PU Condi to Condi Shatter… I have not tried since the patch. More damage now, but less evasion.

I’ve never tried soloing a keep, but I just happened to test soloing a tower last night with the condi build I’ve been working on. My gameplay is pretty bad, but it’s a very doable thing with this Dire-based build

Pretty much any reasonable build could solo a tower with relative ease. Nomads would make it take ages though, a very very poor choice. The difficulty of soloing a tower isn’t actually killing the mobs (that’s just PvE). The difficulty is getting into that tower/hiding in it, and killing the Lord (lots of hp) fast enough before somebody notices.

I didn’t think I would have to further explain the build because it’s usage seemed apparent so to clarify: this build is for sneaking into and surviving in keeps, and towers and SM long enough to portal in others to ninja the objective.

It’s quite survivable and very sneaky (;

That is not exactly flipping and taking towers and keep, which is what you said you were using it for

You facilitate the flipping of towers by enabling your allies. Seems pretty accurate to me.

that is still different from what it sounded like you said in the OP. and while yes that could often be handy i suppose for keeps/SM, if you going into a tower, in 90% of cases you should really be able to flip it yourself, or you wasted both your time and those that come later and need you to teleport in, which is much better done with a build that actually have some offence
