I play a mesmer and I say good. They are op, and stop crying like they ain’t. I fought 1 with my ranger and 2 others were there. Guess who won? I stayed on the mesmer the entire time and she didn’t go below 50% hp while she just ran around as I bashed her and I died faster. She got the others as well. 3 vs 1? Even if I did suck this makes no sense? So all 3 of us just sucked and that is why we lost? Yet they seemed fine against other classes…
Rangers are considered the best PvP class in the game. If you lost a 3v1 you must be either a horrible player or running a terrible build. A failed 3v1 regardless of class is just pathetic. I’ve beaten Mesmers on my other non-mesmer toons plenty of times. You were probably killing its clones while they were armed with retaliation like a moron.
Nope, I followed a gs/lb build from someone that seemed capable in wvw 1 vs 1. (I never saw him win a mesmer though). All exotic, with some zerkers, mainly knights and I was on him the entire time but the gs does hit everything around me. Not much I can do about that. I don’t see how a ranger can be best in pvp as you claim. We do not have stealth, we do not have teleport, we do not have any survival skills at all. We have an evade, but don’t you have that to? And our stun rarely sticks to top it off.
Well… that’s contradictory, isn’t it? “someone that seemed capable in wvw 1 vs 1.” vs. “I never saw him win [against] mesmer though”
Not to generalize, but if you can’t beat one class even some of the time, I can’t exactly call you good. :/
Also, the Mesmer GS is generally a single target weapon with some AoE capability. Spatial surge’s ‘aoe’ (and I use ‘aoe’ loosely) is so narrow that unless you’re fighting an object, you will only ever hit your target, or anyone unaware enough to walk into the path of the beam. iZerker (skill 4) is easily spotted when you know what to look for, and can be dodged, but it’s probably the GS’s best AoE attack. Skill 3 basically doesn’t exist, and Illusionary Wave (skill 5) has a long CD for an AoE knockback. So I’m not really sure what you’re talking about when you say ‘gs does hit everything around me,’ unless you’re talking about your GS… in which case I don’t see why it was even brought up to begin with.
As for rangers being the best in PvP, they certainly are very strong in sPvP and tPvP, but are a bit weaker in WvW…. not weak enough to not be able to kill a Mesmer though.
