After skimming (Because I am too lazy to actually read) about 100 Mesmer guides and builds I have to say yours is easily the most straight forward and easy to understand one that I have been able to find. I wouldn’t consider myself new to gaming but I am also no old hat, I tend to keep to myself and people I already know who play, however much of the info that is out there is so full of acronyms and short forms that I never feel like I am fully understanding what I am reading. I have been casually leveling my Mesmer to 34 trying to figure out how I prefer to play, deciding whether to focus on keeping my illusions up or shattering and I think after reading this I have decided to give your lazy build a try!
