Guild Wars 2

Raiyo.1584:

probably ye . they promised us so many bug fixes , and we only got 1-2 i think what a joke

And a new bug, too.

Wardens will only reflect stuff back to their source if said source is right next to them. Otherwise it bounces upwards.

this thread is insulting to mesmer players (which i no longer am).

kittening do something beside tooltip edits.

First time signing into the forums in months, I have to say I am impressed Anet. You really did a good job in fixing the bugs we outlined, with reproducable steps, 4 months ago.

I loved signing into pvp for the first time in months and getting perma-immobilized within 30 seconds due to phase retreat being bugged.

I was over-joyed to test out Illusionary Elasticity and see it working correctly with clone bounces now.

I was humbled that Anet thought my skill level was so good that they will make my sword skills not work, since I can obviously win without them.

Thought I am sad that I am such a poor leader that my clones won’t attack my enemies, worse they will make neutral parties want to kill me. Maybe if I become a decent player my phantasms will start working properly.

Hi there

So i was rolling whit a friend when both of us realize that the mesmer´s clones wear the armor insted of the the outfit so its easy to indentify the orginal one.
we alredy send a ticket, but i want to know if any other mesmer have the same problem?

I alredy wrote a post about this but i´ll post here too

I dunno really know but, creating a armor set from an existing one (outfit) shouldn’t be that hard… Cmon really… “check this awesome new outfit out”… but **** you mesmers cause we really do not like you… This is what it feels right now…

EDIT: I am not buying that “won’t be fixed argument”

Well, atleast they are not lying when they say “wont be fixed for a long time”.

UnknownFreak.2805:

It’s not an argument, it’s a statement. They didn’t explain why it won’t be fixed for a long time, they simply stated it.

What are you doing on page 3!? Live thread! live!!!!!

tomorrow is another patch….tooltip refinement extravaganza.

…now pls prove me wrong anet….i’ve never wanted to be more wrong. i want to play my mesmer.

Relshdan.6854:

No(t even) tooltips in this patch. Proved?

lol…..sadly, yes i was proven wrong.

but on the bright side, no new attempt to fix a bug, means less likely to have a new bug.

Wait, what, Anet, you stopped fixing Arcane Thievery?!
What the kitten, don’ t you know how important it is?
You can’t quit on it just after 3 months of hard work!

Relshdan.6854:

Clones will now use wear your outfit. 1 bug fixed, 99 to go.

Well not complete. Underwater breaze is still ignored by the clones and if your outfit has an hat and you turn it off at your charakter the clones still wearing the hat, even if turned off at costumes. If there is something similar with the shoulders if you turn them off, I not tested.

I noticed today in pvp my clones wearing a hat but my chars has none. So the bugfix is just done about 95%. And don’t forget aqua helms still not work !!

kitten , I knew it was too good to be true… lol

Meanwhile, pretty sure this wasn’t intended:

Can pretty much can shut down the whole boss.

It’s good someone tested it. I saw clones wearing outfits (the one and only Ancestral) and had no idea they overlooked the rest of the problems.

At least since it wasn’t mentioned in the patch notes, I believe they’re still working on it.

So basically, unreflectable attacks are unreflectable, but not undestroyable, and untraited Wardens are more useful than traited? IIRC the same thing happened with Wurm.

Looks like ANet is in need of an overhaul of the whole projectile-destroy-reflect system.

Every few days I go back to Subject 7 with 5 gambits and a brilliant reflect build that highlights the Mesmer’s unique ability to somehow not exist while dealing tons of damage, hoping I’ll get lucky with 3 wardens that aren’t in a nihilistic depression. But every time I’m disappointed.

I mean, ideally we’d have a temporal curtain and iWarden that change appearance when traited, but right now all I want is for the core mechanics of our profession to work properly

not bumping at all…..but am excited for all the bug fixes we’ll enjoy on july 1st.

Another one:

• WvW bonus “Defender” (x% damage reduction against monsters) applies versus enemy phantasms

This means, in WvW, phantasms become weaker and weaker as the week goes on right up until the wvw reset. Defender bonus usually gets up to around 7% by Friday.

And another one,

• Mind Spike is hitting 10% less than what tooltip claims.

I’ve tested pretty much all Sword skills their damage all aligns with the tooltip perfectly yet the Mind Spike actual damage is always 10% less, both in PvE and PvP.

It’s Frifox. This has been tested and is confirmed.

While I’m confident in my data, it’s always good to get verification from others.

Fair enough. The horror!

Was trying to put one of our “grandmaster” traits to use in PvE and found some odd stuff.

Apr 15 Patch Notes

• Power Block: …trait will no longer trigger through stun immunity effects such as Stability and Defiance.

So, Power Block should still work versus a champ mob that has zero Defiance stacks on him since Unshakable isn’t a stun-immunity boon? Nope, it doesn’t work.

• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iP__4EzgRBk

Also, as you’ll see right after the Power Block fails, apparently Mirror Images nor Decoy will generate any clones if you don’t have a mainhand weapon equipped :/

Here’s a video I made back in Jan 2013 where you can clearly see that those utilities skills DID use to generate clones, even with no weapons equipped, which means that sometime between then and now ANet managed to break those utilities as well…

yeash……this class is now an abortion due to bugs. its amazing that they not only can’t fix bugs for this class (unless they benefit the class), they introduce new ones at an alarming rate.

every time i post in this thread i get an infraction. i’d stop but i actually like this game and class…. kitten……throw us a bone. fix something.

Dont worry Relshdan, new tooltip fixes are on their way.

So anyone actually test if untraited iWarden work better against Subject 7? Seems like wardens will break once the ooze number pile up. It’s always ok in the beginning but with Frailty and Squeemish the fight will drag long enough for iWarden to break.

I didn’t test the untraited iWarden but got pretty annoyed by my traited Warden constantly failing to attack in fractals yesterday. This thread needs to stay on page 1.

So….in WvW once again I managed to kill an Elementalist that had Vapour formed into a tower by casting a Warden on a gate and it changing target and yeah…

So bugged. So stupid.

Anyone ever seen 15 wardens bug out simultaneously?

Yup, happened last night in a 5-mesmer Arah P2. Awesome. Truly a beautiful, magical moment.

Hah, I hope you recorded it.

The wait it just so long now. I think section 7b in the T&C’s Privacy and Data Protection section may explain the silence on our Mesmer bugs.

Option a) does not work out of combat, option b) only works on mantra cast.

100% sure it works both ooc and on mantra charge & use. No idea why but that time NONE of the healing skills proc’ed the swiftness.

From latest patch notes:

Illusionary Leap: Fixed a bug that allowed players to swap places with their clone after it was destroyed.

Wait this was a bug? really? Now not only does it not work half the time now I can’t even swap to it just after it dies… great thanks anet.

Anet, just https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/mesmer/ANet-pls-delete-mesmer-class

I found it as a feature, really, was kind of neat mesmer “confusing” thingy, but no more. (spawn clone, enemy kills it while he runs for you, and swap when he is about to hit..)

Atleast warden got fixed… (Oh wait, it didn’t)

I know how you and every other avid mesmer feels even some people I know who despise mesmer said that this kinda sucks for the class. Maybe it wouldn’t be so bad if clones didn’t die instantly to like 2 aoe.

“Illusionary Leap: Fixed a bug that allowed players to swap places with their clone after it was destroyed.”

They somehow added another bug to the class, but the Devs have learned:
They put it in the changelog and call it “bugfix”.

That would be hilarious if it wasn’t so sad that this bug is still not fixed. At least you had nice-looking iCheerleaders? :I

….just….too shocking for words.

Wish Pyro were still here, would have loved to see his response to this!

Well, as I said on the Mesmer forums if there weren’t any valid attempt at bug fixes in the upcoming patch I could see it being the final straw for many mesmers.

I was excited about the start of season 2. Loaded up the game client, then started reading the patch notes while the patch was downloading, then……..closed the game and didnt bother.

Why even bother reporting bugs?

They don’t give a kitten.
A “we are reading dis, herpaherp” post every few months does not fix bugs, arenanet.
Stop lying to your customers.

Anet…please…fire this hambow warrior, who keeps nerfing mesmers… I know,…there is not much left…but find a mesmer to lead mesmer balance team….its just to ridiculous.

fixin dat forum page bug

Still waiting for a fix… why should I even bother
