Guild Wars 2

I already told my opinion but here are some pics because “A picture is worth a thousand words” right? :P

I find that asura t3 cultural weapons fits them nicely and are decent in size unlike most of weapon sets on asura characters. Second pic: t3 dagger vs molten pistol which is cool but not on asura. Unfortunately i spent all my karma and cant change it yet :S

Asura, cuz it hurts more when clumsy, nerd-midget stomp you :P

Last night I encoundered countless hambow wars, PU mes, and PW thieves and guess what, most were so lame and predictable skill spammers and couldnt do a kitten.

No need to ask for nerf every time when you stumble on good player who knows what he can do with his class/build because he will give you trouble no mather what build he uses. You need to improve yourself and learn how to deal with different situations and even more important, you need to know where is your build good and where are the weak spots cuz be sure that every build have its weak spots.

And yes, Im no pro or smt like that but I never asked for nerf if I couldnt kill someone cuz thats my fault mostly. So many ppl complain cuz they got killed by big bad mesmer and dont even know how the class is functioning. Thats my reason to defend mesmer in general, not just PU (I agree that Pu is strong and hard to counter but like I said in other thread its not godmode like some ppl claim).

Last night in spvp I had something like 80% leaps on target. 20% failed, but include here my bad timing as well. So its ok I guess.

“Ohhh that nasty PU need nerf. I can’t see where this nasty slowpoke is! "
“Phantasms are op, nerf them. Stupid AI that kills me. Noobish kitten that rely on AI!” (Tears all around)
“What is this? He shattered clones in my glass cannon face and I died? OMGGGGG OP OP nerf the Shatter mesmer”

To sum it up: “I cant pres 1/spam X skill/roll over keyboard and kill mesmer! Delete that annoying kitten”

L2P or if you cant, wait for someone who knows basics of his class to help you kill “that kittening godmode mesmer”.

Well thats sad indeed but you cant change that. If ANet will listen to crybabies we can do nothing about it. But you can ignore ppl that “demand” that you play by their “rules” or they will flame you. If the game gives you opportunity to play “the AI does all the work” mesmer and you enjoy it why would you care if someone dont like you for that?

They hate what they dont understand. Ppl who know how mesmer works dont hate the class or even worse player that is behind that clkitteners will hate whatever you do. If you beat them you are noob cuz you using X ( X = PU, shatter, clones, you name it) if they beat you then you are noob, lowbie etc. Maybe if you just stand on one place shouting: “Hey everyone, free kill here. Come kill a mesmer, effort free, just today!” maybe, but one big maybe it would be ok for them. I say screw them, play what you like how you like and if they dont like it let them complain to someone who cares.

Nerf Torment pls XD

JK I played your Condi cat build and it worked great. This looks even better

Pipra.7580:

Don’t mesmers have enough toys already?

No, we want new toys!!!

PU mes XD
Locate real mesmer through buffs/to much activity (casting skills, running, jumping or any kind of movement; clones are so obvious cuz they are stationary, or runing in the straight line) try not to destroy clones or be near them cuz mes can simulate clone death by creating more than three clones/phants and put condi on you that way. By doing so you negated dmg/cc. If u see you have stacks of confusion on you and att anyways than sry but you do deserve to be stomped. High pressure on PU mes at the right time and you have dead mes.

Hard to kill? Yes.

Godmode? NO

Sry but it rly is L2P issue. And also by playing any class with any build you will always find that one class that can kill you with ease or troll you. Welcome to the MMORPG game. Peace

WvW

I wanted to try IE based condi build, but since its not working on clones I stick to Condi Cat by you know who. When I get more money Ill try PUP (Pu – Power mix XD). (I know, oooooh noob PU mesmer, we hate you blah blah.)

PvE

Something like colesy phant build with minor changes.

sPvP

Rarely played, still don’t have specific build for it.

To sum it up, no changes/minor changes in my builds after patch.

Thank you guys. I changed traits like colesy said, changed sigils and runes, didn’t know about bugged 6. Vala gave me some ideas to think of, I’ll stick with 20% phant for now and see how it goes. When I become more confortable with this build maybe I change it for things you mentioned.

@mystic

I tried to avoid deceptive evasion because of that, I don’t want it to replace my phantasms with clones and it will since sword is a close range weapon and ill need to evade a lot (while its a good thing to do with condition build here I didn’t want it).
You are right about dmg, this build is imagined like dmg build with a little def stuff to give me chance if I screw evade or smt. Talking about support, isn’t 3 slot skills and traited focus enough of support + if mobs concentrate on my phantasms there is more time for group members to do dmg heal themselves etc since mobs wont be on their kitten constantly :P

@colesy

Ill add that. I didn’t plan to shatter them unless they survive till new ones are ready. Idea was 2 duelists and a warden to be constantly out for boss if possible and advantage to warden when there is more mobs.

condition build, chaos storm into enemy mass and pick up your bags

Hi guys.

I’m little Asura mesmer mostly playing WvW and I don’t have experience in dungeons (Done Ac and CM few times with partial success). After reading some topics on forum I find out that ppl don’t agree with best build for dungeons because there is no one ultimate build for anything. I’m not pro in making builds but I made one I intend to use and need help from guys with dungeons experience to tell me is this build any good.

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fgAQRAsa8dlwzKqXVTqGaNJhZBnZE9ljSR39eJF4O3A-jQyAY/BRTZAJRBiKAn8KiGblrIasqFMVJRUtHvIa1SBcxyI-e

Idea was to trait phantasms but still have dmg and some survivability in case of missed dodge (You are no good if you are dead, right?).
Weapon sets: s/p as main (I prefer s/p over s/s), s/f as 2nd. I had hard time choosing between s/s and s/f for 2nd set, but ended with s/f mainly because I wanted some aoe (no staff in build).

What do you guys think? Please don’t flame. Constructive criticism is welcome though.

Funny how ppl still want nerfs on thief. You want thief to be squishy but also not mobile and evasive so war like yourself can stomp it while walking without much effort, where is fun in that?

You see, ppl like me will find way to play class they like despite the nerfs. ANET nerf Burst dmg I’ll go Cond build and bleed ppl to death, they nerf that i’ll go Shadow build with thieves guild and be pain in kitten again. Its better to learn how to play your class than asking nerf on another cuz this way it will go until every class becomes auto att only and even then someone will be unhappy. I have problem killing mesmer, I wont say nerf it. I’ll play it a bit, learn his pros and cons and adapt to that and do my best when dueling one.

Well its kind a stupid that you cant break channeling with stealth imo. You have a skill that requires target in line of sight and you still hit it even if you don’t actually see it. Doesn’t have a sense to me. Player in stealth should be damaged only with AOE skills because they requires ground targeting not character. In other hand you have games like Aion where any condition stacked on target prevents it from being in stealth but this is not Aion so I think ANET should consider changing stealth a bit.
