I only have a fused / ascended one, but yeah. I really want to use it more in WvW, but it is inferior to pretty much every other option.

Shortbow is a utility weapon.
… Unfortunately, PvE ia based on DPS.

We might wait for HoT. Celestial might get fashionable. Even condi might get popular. Longbow will be inferior in that scenario. But if Zerk meta continues, a hybrid weapon will always be inferior. That’s to be expected.

There are no scepter mesmers in PvE either.

It really depends on your playstyle, mine really suits the SB and I really like and enjoy it. It is pretty devastating when you trait and setup for it.
