It seems as though Feedback and Chaos storm are the 2 skills mesmers are using to blow up siege. I was hoping mesmers would be able to add some input.

First off I have not had the opportunity to test this fully. So please correct me if I am wrong. Secondly, I would love to hear input/opinions from everyone else that has participated in WvW… especially from the seasoned mesmers out there.

However it seems as though the only type of condition damage that affects siege is confusion. Seems odd that every class/build that is designed around condition damage is rendered useless (or just about) against siege, yet a single group of mesmers is able to obliterate any siege in the game.

With the fix to guardians stacking retaliation, this issue will not be as significant in large siege battles, however it still seems that it should be looked at.

Either take a look at mesmers being too powerful in this aspect, or allow all other classes to stack their own conditions as well.
