I tried to do the personal story for the Order of Whispers on one of my alts. It was indeed fun to see everything happening in the destroyed LA, but the mission “Reconnaissance” cannot be completed…

I haven’t played GW1, so I cannot compare the two.

However, when I listen to “The walls of Ebonhawke” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V4ajJX9uTnw) I feel a strange nostalgia about the story of GW1, a game I haven’t played!

Osi, thank you so much for your contributions to the Mesmer community, you really rock!

I have a question, how do you deal with Warriors with the Hidden Cat spec? I tend to run to them and I just cannot kill them especially when they use hammer/GS. They kill all my illusions and their mobility makes shattering almost impossible, while regenerating and cleansing themselves constantly. Any hints?

Countering a P/P kitting thief

Again, thank you all for you valueable information! I think I will try the build Wyldkat suggested.

@Ekemeister indeed, I want to l2p, no time to learn the thief class, hence the thread. I never said he was perma-stealthed, it was him going in and out of stealth very quickly, probably explained by the critters around us. I have also acknowledged that probably he was not a p/p thief. Why do so many thieves get so defensive? Thieves are not OP imo, I won’t be crying “OMG NERF THIEVES QQ” anytime soon At least I think I didn’t in this post.

Again, thank you all!

Thank you all for you great replies!

@Aervius, I loled at your no. 6

I should have clarified a few things, actually.

Not all builds are based on putting phantasms out and letting them do the work for me. I consider this to be a lame way to play the game and the reason why I never slot GS. My type of game is going in an out of melee range, like the shattercat build or seven mesmer’s. And, it’s quite easy to find the mesmer really.

You guys are probably right, they were probably p/d and not p/p thieves, I think I saw the unload animation and got confused. It’s quite the troll build, I must admit. I’ve met such a thief around maybe 3 times so I haven’t had alot of exposure to them. However, losing to them did have an impact! One time, I remember 6 people chasing a thief that kept going in and out of invisibility constantly. I do lack training against them, and I don’t assume that I can necessarily kill them with my skill level or build but now I’ll be more prepared!

Could someone post a build that is representative of this playstyle?

Again, thanks!

Countering a P/P kitting thief

Hello thieves

I play a mesmer, roaming solo most of the times. Generally speaking, I can deal with thieves easily; especially when they are solo. However, there is a build that is really a pain to counter. Last night, myself and a guardian found a p/p thief, he kept going invisible all the time and his health kept going up. We just couldn’t catch him and deliver the pain. I am assuming that this thief was wearing +healing gear or something and kept regenerating health while in stealth. He eventually wore us down one by one and eventually killed us. Hats off to him.

I have a thief but I don’t have the time to level him properly, so I was wondering if there is a way to counter this build. And please don’t suggest to run away, I won’t do that.

Thank you in advance!

Thank you!

EDIT: also, if you could point to this build, that would be great. Thanks!

Seven, I always enjoy your vids and builds. Your playstyle is what I’ve always felt to be how I want to play this game too.

I’ve been using your sword/torch and swordmans builds extensively and I really love them. I would say I’m effective in most cases except for when I find two kiting specs: p/p thief and shortbow ranger. Especially with the swordsman spec, it seems very difficult to bind them down and unload the dps.

What would you recommend against kiters? And, keep up the great work!

Thank you for the reply Jason, it was very informative.

However, the #3 issue makes the skill usage so random in its results most of the times. I am mostly surprised when the skill does work than when not.

The suggestion by Kazi would be a good fix for it, replacing the clone “running” animation with it appearring after the time the “running” animation would need has passed next to the target.

Amazing videos there! Your survivability is monumental! Care to elaborate on your gear? I’m guessing the build is 0/20/20/0/30, right?
