My phantasms and clones failed to attack a gate in eotm. They attack siege with no issues but just stood still at the gate.
Want to add that they did attack gates in the main WvW maps.

As a start mesmers are slow but at the same time EXTREMLY mobile. No. other classe have the same spawny mobility exept thiefs and in some ways we outmatch even them. Its al about learn to use the tools we have. Straff is one, give extreme agility and take ages to master. The amount of obsticles and terrains it can climb are unmatched. Another is portal, and ofc traited blink.
We are in general better at mobility in running or fighting than in pure chasing. For chasing you need to use staff smart combined with blink and cc, if you can get infront of target staff blink in front of it and keep preasure.

How did you blink up the hill at 3:10

It seems like a lot of Mesmer skills have unnecessary issues with terrain like blink and illusionary leap.
I would gladly double the cooldown if they would last through an entire fight and not just a single mob.
I agree. They have no survivability as it is so if they decided to increase the cooldowns they might as well let them last as long as you are in combat.
I noticed this too. At first I thought it was lag only because when this one skill falls behind other skills like blurred frenzy seems to fall behind as well, but everything else like movement seems to be perfectly smooth. Tested it on an ettin’s charge attack and got hit when there was ample time for the block to activate. Very frustrating.
Didn’t care for the butterflies at first but I kinda got used to them. In fact, I think mesmers should have a short blink animation with their dodges, including the butterflies. It’s not fair that the thief has his shadow step dodge.
