Guild Wars 2

I was playing with a modified version of this in pvp and it seemed to be working well enough for group and and doing above average for 1v1 . so could this work for wvw roaming or would I need to completely overhaul it? suggestions welcome.

the general setup was to use diversion with 2(mage ,dodge) clones and follow up with a 3(leap,mirror image) clone mind wrack, any following shatters would be cry of frustration (using staff) until their health got low enough, so a mind rack could finish them. torch and null field for condition removal, prestige for un-interrupted heal/ break los.

For WvW it does work, you might wanna take a look at BlackDevil’s Hybrid Build and compare notes.

For sPvP? Not sure, actually. Never tried it myself or heard of anyone who’s pulled it off all that successfully.

Hybrid builds in pvp don’t work because stats are too limiting atm. You maybe could do a cele ammy with strength runes but its honestly not amazing.

I think countless runs a hybridish clone-death phantasmy build iirc. It works rather well.

You know I totally forgot about that build haha. Countless’ spec does do pretty well if youre into the signet clone death.

I was having fun with it in spvp going to see if I can make a better version hopefully the lag that was hampering me goes away, and thank you all for the suggestions going to try a slight variation on blackdevil’s for my roaming build.

The most successful hybrid mesmer build that I’ve used was StickerHappy’s Phantasmic Interruptions build:

The raw stats speak for themselves (with food):
- 100% condi duration !!!!
- 45% boon duration
- Traveler runes
- 453 condi dmg
- 2061 power, 48% crit chance, 202% crit dmg
- 2366 armor
- bountiful interruption for more might

Too bad the itemization for it can’t be achieved in sPvP though.
