Chaos Archangel.5071:

d00d check ur PMs

Also, was there anything about this balance pass that anyone is happy/ok about? All I see are tears everywhere.

But we just have to buy the new elite to be happy right, oh wait….

I hope they don’t nerf my White mage on FF XIV.

Yeah it’s been 1month i haven’t log gw2 :p (no more qq)

So everyone saying
“everyone is OP and should be nerf except me?”

Because, people think i’m easy to kill :p

The build work pretty well.

I just changed the signet for well of precognition in teamfight, to help allies.
Even if i lose some condi remove, but i’ve duelling a condi reaper and from 5% health i heal myself to 50% from a full condi burst and then i down him, for me, i think it’s good enought.

And last night, i start a 1v4 (2 DH, 1 druid, 1 condi necro) , the necro was down, the druid low health that he run away to regen. Then a friendly ranger and warrior came, but the ranger just spam pewpewpew, so we lost with the war :s (but that was kinda awesome how you can pressure while being pressured :p)

Mesmerz op, plz nerf :p (kidding)

That’s a funny bug :p

Remember when you can ileap after you illusion died :s

I got Duelling/Duelling/Domination/Chaos/ Chaos

Pu condi mesmer, or rupt.
That’s exactly me :p

Well i really want to try but since the ennemy server love his tower i can’t make a video Mesmer vs Door, it will be boring =_=

Dat Killshot Warrior :o
Nice vids.

I don’t find the chronomancer op, i find it slower than mesmer rupt.
Condichrono seems so easy to play, but the wells are not that good so i find them a little under our other utility , since we need some utility so the choice is reduce :s

Mimic don’t work on weapon skill, only with utility skill.

I’ve been walking in SM freely, with the ennemy zerg on my side.
Yeah PU have been buff as hell….

But Engi got insane reveal traits aoe, rangers have his own.
And like Fay says traps are in wvw.

In pvp, you don’t cap, you don’t decap a point so no use or just to have buff.
So seems fine, or maybe 60/70% is ok at least.

If mimic works with elite :
Chronomancer > F5 > Moa > Mimic > Moa > F5 > Moa > Mimic > Moa :p

Op as hell!

No more qq on mesmer :o

Darksteel.8412:

also when stealthed and hit a blocking target…the stealther should be revealed…i mean the blocker doesn’t notice the blocked impact cause its stealth….so non stealth classes suddenly become kittened as well…nerf this stealth stuff hard….that or their damage…balance says it cant have both….basic math ikr

I’m okay for that, and you fix the bug that allow attack to track through stealth ok ? you will be cute :p

Yes mesmer GS is the most broken weapon in the game. One of the few ranged weapons that is not a projectile on autoatck. Has unblockable skills on a very short cd.

That’s probably why mesmers in the past always used staff-sword and no greatsword, for half the game’s life. Thief shortbow and warrior longbow says hello.

Thief shorbow is only 900 range. Cluster bomb is incredible slow moving projectile and the other 4 skills do almost no dmg. Has 0 unblockable skills.

Warrior’s bow is only 1000 range. Autoatck is weak. #3 is slow moving projective. Pin down is heavily telegraphed. Has 0 unblockable skills.

Mesmer gs is 10 times more broken than the weapons you cited. It has AoE boon removal. AoE CC. Insta 9stacks of might and 9 vul. Ranged NON PROJECTILE autoatck that you can exploit for extra dmg. You can stack 2 cooldown reduction traits so mirror blade cd can be less than 5s.

“It has AoE boon removal. " > remove one boon (12s), omg so op, what about sword AA?

“AoE CC” > wow 30s aoe cc with 450range, what about mantra of resolve? (30s cd, 2 aoe stun 1200 range)

“Insta 9stacks of might and 9 vul” > yeah 9stack of might when you’re at melee range.

I think in this topic, people qqing about mesmer drop their keyboard when they saw a mesmer ==.
If you’re afk and do nothing, it’s normal if you lose ==.

Mesmer are awesome, today i was chased in wvw, in the ruins by 5 baruch bay.
2pew pew rangers
2elem (1d/d +1staff)
1thief (condi venom share)
So i think that was like 25s imo/person :p +staff cc + 1k5 pewpew
and they have chase me during 5mn without catching me (i was running maim, no condi clear, blink decoy)

And how to survive just with the field advantage, los, brain.
That’s why i playing mesmer.

Like Lord someone say “Mesmer are op”, no we have just to play intelligently

“2, They apply a ton of conditions, do massive damage and strip boons”

Mesmer can’t do crazy damage and insane condi.
So condi clear > condi (i think like vs all class playing condi but i’m maybe wrong)
Dodge,los > damage (and you can dodge attacks applying condi too, that’s awesome)

“3, They do too much spam damage from long ranged with the greatsword”

So do not stay at range=_=

“4, Blurred frenzy cd is too short meaning they have too much invulnerability”
9s 1/2 if traited, for 2s blur (so retaliation work), and you can’t move.
20% uptime “invulnerability” (like you said)

“6, They get so many procs like fire and air sigil”
Well i think sigil cd is the same for everybody so where is your source?

“8, Moa morph is not fun in any way whatsoever”
Moa can be block, blind, dodge, so what else? ah yes easilly spotted during casting time.

“10, The damage it too high and too repeatable. They shouldn’t be able to spike for so much so often. I would increase the cd of shatter by 50%”

10s for MW, it hurt if you get hit, but shatter are easy to dodge, you can see it coming.
After that you need to have 3 illusion up for the next shatter (illusion which are one shot).

PS: “v” by defaults on keyboard is for dodging.
PS2: you made my day.

I agree its no skill pretty much. Probably disagree how unbalanced it is but I feel like its a type of build that is rewarded too much low skill low risk build should be the weakest type of build.

The following builds take no skill/little skill and I will rank in order of how little skill they take:
1, Staff ele – There is a reason all the newbs play this
2, Shoutbow
3, Power necro – 1 spam and passives
4, D/P thief – 2 buttons = kill anything
5, Hammer dps guardian – like a 3 button combo that my granny could do
6, S/D thief – spam, no cd management
7, d/d ele – takes more skill than those above
8, Celestial engi – pretty much just spam
9, Bunker guardian – the original brainless spec
10, longbow ranger – spamming from 1500 range takes no skill

So that means this whole meta takes no skill. And mesmer is fairly brainless. Porting around like a clown abusing bugs and having perma invulnerability = no skill. Although it does take a little skill I give mesmers that. The bad ones suck alot. But its still too storng vs everything in the game except thief.

You forgot turret engie. MM necro.

Those builds suck so no point including them

you forgot p/d thief :s

“And mesmer is fairly brainless. Porting around like a clown abusing bugs and having perma invulnerability = no skill. "

Sure mesmer use bug :p

You can have new friends and double teaming.
That awesome!!

Well, why not on Eu side.
It can be funny.
(but it depend of the server too)

Hello did you do dolyak escort? I need this achievment too :p

:troll on:
Anet strategy is op.

Nerf the mesmer and add little think with HoT and then they will said:

“You see you are buff now so please stop say kitten on forum :s "

:troll off:

Mesmer is decent, but you do one little error and you’re dead.

hopefully a title means nothing :p

Maybe revenant will have shield too, so maybe a new skill from revenant.

I’m still a new members (i think). And i don’t have to much time (uni, life etc…)
But if i can help a little why not.

For the EU event, if i can be present, i think i can record at least, maybe not streaming (some pb with twitch atm) .

I have played all main build, PU condi, zerk, rupt, condi shatter.

Guard and war can use shield, both heavy class, so why revenant can’t use shield?

Maybe phantasm’s shield will be a skill of the revenant.

Thank you Anet, 10time in a raw, i died to falling bug damage after the present.
It’s so funny. Keep going, you do a great job.

When i use spatial surge (1) with GS, sometimes (20% of time i will say) it doesn’t do damage at all, i need to do an other attack, or action to proc the damage.
So did this happen only to me? because it became very frustrating.

Sure this guy was so hilarous.

I really think we need some nerf, we are too op right now. The game allow us to use hack with game design, and gameplay Oo

So in eotm, i try to climb some “tower” near a supply camp.

And a famous op ranger start to hit me, and climb to my position.
So we fight, he was at 30%, he slipped and fell (and die).

So he invite me and say i’m a hacker, hum so i was thinking “what i just climb a wall, it’s not a hack, it’s ground advantage :p”
But no, this is not the reason of my hack….
See by yourself :p

I think this guys never saw a mesmer of his life :p, yes i play rupt mesmer deal with it!

If you read this dear friend, you just make my night.

Ps: if you don’t know a thing it’s op.
Pss: if you don’t understand a think it’s an hack.
Seems like all thinks are op in fact.

Warriors aren’t op at all.

Just meet a war, and i (shatter mesmer) engaged him.
He simply ignored me, and go on a other taget, kill the target in 15s and taking all my bursts and fall at 50% (i exaggerate, rather like 80% but just to don’t say they are op)

So warrior are not op.
they just have more power, armor, regen, dispell, they just have more.

Seems like it’s so hard to fight people near jis keep with cannon :p

Necro have no block, evade.
Yeah, they have blind.

I play mesmer, and i find moa the most useless skill for mesmer.
Sometimes, other mesmer moa me, but i survive and kill them.

Ps: it’s amazing, because necro have a skill with the same effect for me.
Signet of spite, oblige to use all my dispell and i still have 10stack of bleed, 20s of poison.

You can’t run away!!
Nobody can!!
Everybody will be judged :p

Thx to DEX for accepting Exil in their raid^^, the fight in garnison was fun

Did i am the only mesmer who, when i changed my utility, they are on cd?

Ex: blink, decoy, arcane thievery

My arcane thievery is on cd. I change decoy for portal, and the portal are on cd (same as arcane thievery).

So and you? Did you notice something like that?

ResQ have a bad name, they only know 10v1 in sanctuary, they wait at the end jump.

But they are so bad in 1v1, and so brainless.
Even if they wait at the end, in brain them so easily, i kill other player who want to kill me at the chest (3people who came 1 by 1, one was very likeable).

And then, 2ResQ come to kill me, but 2resq only know died, or run away and call some other resQ (4 is a minimum), so one died and one call his friends=_=.

ResQ, a noob guil, who don’t know how to kill if they’re not 6.
Make duel in obsidium sanctum, and they come to kill you, and if one guys is alone, he run away and go call in noob friends.

I understand why you play with 10people, killing good players must be so hard for you.

A mesmer who kill you when you were alone
