Guild Wars 2

I have issued an ultimatum to interrupt mesmers in their mesmer thread

they still think interuppt mesmers > Reapers!

looloolllollol

we got traited 10sec stability on a 16 second cooldown

and

traited 600 range gap closer on a 4 second cooldown

and

immense chill abilities

lets see them try to interrupt or kite us!!!!!!

Reaper can’t do squat once they’re out of range.

True but we have chill to slow them
we got 25% increase MS in reaper mode
we got 600range gap closer every 4 seconds

Is Staff/Blink on an interrupt Mesmer’s build? I don’t actually know what the build is specifically. However, with the potential to pick up Foot in the Grave as well more easily, plus RS #3, Necro is going to have a lot more flexibility in dealing with Interrupt spam. Which is good.

highly doubtful that the reaper has the upper hand in the match up but it is doable since we can outlast them though

its just not a sunny day for us with the long cast times

then again it all depends on the build a mesmer runs since intrupt mesmer can be built with so many options.
really their traits are a thing of beauty with so many options that are all viable.

Angel to angel, Chronomancer to Reaper, when the time is upon us I am coming for you Eremite.

why does no one see what a wonderful duo those two would make together…

Reaper gets all of the AoE bonus of teamfight in a 1v1 against a Mesmer. So we get our shout CD reductions, and all the highest effects against a mesmer.

Reapers, Chronomancers. This is not the way.

Do you not see?

We should be allies. Reaper and Chronomancer together against all others.

Do you not see the true power of a Reaper as the Chronomancer feeds it quickness and alacrity. Chrnomancers do you not see protection and condition support that Reaper can provide. Chilled enemies, Slowed enemies, faster casts, reduced cooldowns, poisoned enemies, stunned enemies, dazed enemies. Do you not see!

It wasn’t even about interrupt mesmer in particular, it’s just that we can’t really do anything about blinks – it doesn’t matter how much chill we have when it doesn’t effect teleports at all.

Shots were fired. War will rage, the peace can come after we introduce some Reapers to the graves they’re so fond of.

IMO the mesmer would probably have enough boon removal and CC to deny stability for at least 5 seconds, which is more than enough to shutdown a reaper.

If it is you Chaos, I take back my declaration of war.

I am nowhere near your level XD

Maybe if another necro wants to take up the challenge?

LETS SEE THEM TRY!!!!
ROARRRRR!!!!!

oh opps i forgot i am going to take back my declaration of war

but honestly, we should appoint our most skilled necro vs your most skilled mesmer in a duel.
so it is build vs build
if i fought chaos, it will be chaos win because he is better skilled. not because mesmer > necro.

Honestly interior mes has the advantage unless You can bait the interupts. If you can do that and kept them chilled it all reaper.

While minorly off from your numbers , our cd reduction trait for ds skills is 15%, so 5.1sec cd for the leap and 17sec for the stabil btw.

True.

Let’s not get our hands dirty and waste our Illusions on their Shouts. Let’s just AA him to death with Confusion and Slow on Crit and GS AA from a distance?

Well…they blink, we Dash aster them and then use our “GET OVER HERE!” skill… I think we might catch many a mesmer that way, especially since that skill doesn’t care if it’s one mesmer or a mesmer with 4 clones. Only problem i personally see is STEALTH. I think we might be able to do sth. about the blinks.

Slow isn’t affected by Stability.

If I’m running the right Utilities, I don’t have too much of a problem with most Mesmers currently. I got so sick of being shutdown by them I made it a habit to run something that gives them problems, since you always see AT LEAST 1-2 every single PvP match.

With Reaper, and all that it offers … I honestly cannot wait. The cries for nerfs will be loud.

I fought rylock (who is in top 5 mes in da world) and lost horribly… (both when he was on shatter AND lockdown) I would have a better chance against Chaos Archangel though… so lets try…

I declare a war/duel to Chaos Archangel 2 weeks after we both get reaper/chronomancer! (some time to practise)

Chaos you got a worthy challenger!

I’ve issued your declaration of war to the mesmers Holl!

I like the sound of a Reaper and Chronomancer dueling since I love both classes aspects so far. If a Chronomancer sets up that f5 properly though or uses the phantasms that apply slow to a Reaper GS which is already slowed down. Those actions and attacks will be telegraphed for days.

keep chill burn and poison on the mesmer and he will just die. if you can get to them you’ll win.

if you can get to them lol…mesmers run so many invis and aegis they are a nightmare to fight against honestly

im saying it now…chrono reaper teams in wvw….gg mapblob. they can make a great team for sure.

As a player who loves both Necro and Mesmer in the level that I call them both my main,what in the 7 gods I should do? im torn apart here guys….

Thanks Angel! Can’t wait to REAP them! (That was a horrible pun, I’m sorry)

I’d say enjoy the best of both worlds and show both parties alike your worth

Yeah, I already try to convince a friend, who usually plays Necro in WvW, to team up with me (Mesmer) against the world

My husband and I are already plotting all the havocfun we can have with my Chronomancer builds and his Reaper builds.
Mwhahahaa!

I’m surprised to hear that actually. Perhaps I should arrange a duel of my own here. My build simply doesn’t get countered by mesmers, and I rarely find players who present a serious challenge.

OMFG is plannign Mesmer raids on NA Fort Aspenwood so if there is any Necro guild you could come and help us there

Death’s Charge (our new DS mobility skill) have a single big problem that no one see: 1 second of casting. It’s like you take a second to do 600 of distance. And that’s NOT a real movement skill.
If you have Swiftness, you take the same time to do the same distance. If you’re following a enemy with swiftness that skill don’t work!
We can compare it with the Banner’s skill Sprint, that have 1+1/4 of casting time, ignoring all the movement imparring skill. From the time ANet nerf that skill no one use it to move because it’s slow and you do better wo just use swiftness and run.
That skill can work for a movement skill only if its casting time (the time that skill need to be done and run that 600 distance) is reduced to 1/2 sec, like every other movement skills (guardian gs, warrior sword, ranger gs).

Our only hope to catch a enemy is to fear that enemy from distance and chill it. Then we can have a hope to catch that enemy. But if he use a real movement skill, we’re f**** because we can’t catch a distant enemy with fear if have Stability because fear become useless, the enemy isn’t feared and isn’t chilled.
We can use GS Reaper’s Grasp, but that skill don’t chill. Then we need to active it then chill the enemy with another skill.

And to fear a enemy and inflist chill we haven’t any good skill if we use the Reaper’s weapons because the DS skill 3 of the Reaper take time before you can inflict fear (3/4 of a second) and it’s range is low (360).

Reaper is the bad class I’ve ever see to catch a enemy that try to flee from us.

you should go see my post in the mesmer thread.

mesmers are saying they counter necros.

go figure.

Flow… Rylock is Esports lvl good. Best of luck to you though ^^

I know, but some of this attitude usually derives from them just being the better player.

Holl.3109:

Exactly what I’m looking for

Holl.3109:

I fought rylock (who is in top 5 mes in da world) and lost horribly… (both when he was on shatter AND lockdown) )

Rylock is indeed a good mesmer, but perfectly manageable. We have roughly a tie, after first couple loses I was on winning streak.

Lockdown is pretty hard matchup, but at least for me, far easier than Medi Guard. Once you figure his rotation and interrupt him once, he loses all momentum. Unlike Gaurd.

I find guardians easier to deal with compared to PU mesmers.

PU mesmers go in and out of invis easily and they have a lot of aegis.

The burst type PU mesmers are the most dangerous.

against a guardian just try to save your shroud 4 for his focus shield and it breaks the shield easily.

a good mesmer will beat a good necro, almost every freakin time, and if not, they will reset the fight, and come back when you’re slow kitten skills are on cool downs. Come on man, nothing has changed, nor will it. Mesmers are good in 1 v 1, some of the best, and a well played mesmer has trouble with certain thief builds, and a well played medi guard. A necro, will full life force has a shot, but its a 40/60 shot at best. We are simply too slow, and patience simply kills us.

Unless Mesmer goes for portal at full range with GS or Moa, Mesmers are perfectly manageable. At least in PvP, haven’t roamed in a long while.

Yeah in PVP they are manageable. Not so in wvw. You’re right I should be more specific.

In WVW I’d much rather fight a mesmer than a thief, they’re fun to fight, just need to avoid the burst, a little CC and conditions and the fight becomes interesting.

Firstly stop trying to create an argument secondly stop being so naive and listen to anet. They have constantly said the numbers are not hard set so stop hyping something that is not even finalized. That is all

This has been my thoughts all along. Gonna be a potent duo.
“Oh, hey thanks Alacrity+Quickness!”
“Here, have some condi clear and enemies that can’t move for crap!”
Oh nice! Thank!"
“Well, you DO know what we have to do now right!?!”
“Oh yeah! Gravity incoming! Well spam engage!!”
“Hehehe…”

Lol! Guess I should have read further down first.

ChronReapers unite!!!
