You guys are all awesome, thanks a ton. I like the idea of spectating mesmer players to see what makes them tick. What do you guys do about how difficult it is to execute them though? Is there some way to hamstring their ability to make a clone when down?

Also, very interesting read BlackBeard; I’ll have to work on distinguishing what type of mesmer the opponent is.

Hrm, my four bounces as well, I guess hammer that thing when the summons come out? It seems like the illusions have reasonable amounts of health though; is it affected by toughness and vitality?

Because I am having a lot of trouble dealing with them. I’m running a necromancer condition scepter/focus mainhand staff offhand and I just cant seem to do anything. Once I finally have enough condition stacks on one they split off into a bazillion copies that all dance a god kitten jig around me. Even if I manage to down one they can put off the execution for so long it just isnt feasible to stick around.

I guess, overall, my question is this: how do you deal with these slippery devils? I dont care what your class is as long as you share your strategy and give me a bit of an explanation of why it works. Furthermore, am I just doing something wrong? This is my first time really delving into anything besides WvW which is a very different experience. Is condition necro not suited for pvp?

Anything helps, thanks.
