Going to get CoE Chest next (last pic). Still looking for gloves and shoulders. Looking for classy yet understated. Simple but elegant. Any suggestions? I didn’t care for any of the Dungeon gloves (haven’t checked out shoulders yet).

Also not the best at dyeing my armor. Black looks good, but it isn’t very original. Some of the Color Scheme’s I have seen in this thread are very nice looking.

Does anyone NOT run a Shatter Build (PvE)?

I currently run with a condition build
0/25/25/0/20

I’ve also run plenty of times with a “balanced” reflection-heavy spec (0/20/20/20/10)

I rarely run without the “clone on dodge” Trait, though I have some guildies who LOVE their phantasm build which doesn’t use it.

In my experience, mesmers are pretty diverse. The GS berserker ‘bug’ on the table right now is a little crippling, but otherwise I haven’t noticed too many people in a shatter-dependent build in game. On the forums… there are quite a few, but it doesn’t seem out of the ordinary.

I’ve used both of these build with great success. They are two of my favorites (currently using 0/25/25/0/20).

With the Condition build I usually run Decoy/Mirror images and try to be a clone factory to spread more conditions and the on death traits. With MI ready I almost always shatter because I know I can instantly have 3 clones back up before the first 3 blow up.

That’s pretty much how I do it with a Condition build. Since I have so many ways to generate clones/phantasms, I typically shatter quite often. Except on boss fights that don’t insta-kill your illusion’s I try to get 3 iDuelists up asap and just let them keep the bleeds stacking for me.
