Oh god…
Yes please Anet, rework our class and bring us back GW1 mesmer.
Then all the whiners will know what frustration really is and be able to kill themselves.
I have (no) empathy for them.You can’t make a direct comparison like that to GW1.
Back in GW1 control was way more prominent in every profession, not only mesmer.Necromancers were able to constantly snare, degen and slow down the attack speed, not to mention Spiteful Spirit.
Blindness completely shut down any melee profession.
Interrupt Rangers really did something in terms of control and denial.In that context, mesmer was far from frustrating since pretty much the whole game worked like that.
Unlike other GW1 professions, pretty every mesmer skill was designed around frustration, that was mesmer identity imo.
I was a little bit provocative (and desperate) in my previous post, but still, what the OP wants is to nerf (again) everything that makes a mesmer unique or fun to play with, and buff something else.
Well, I want to ask him what “something else” refers to.
Less clones, less confusion, less CC means less survivability…then buff what ? our random buff/debuff based skills to make them less, but still random ? support skills because being a portal/veilbot is not enough ?
More DPS every glasscanon player will complain about ?
We have to be realistic, neither a GW1 mesmer comeback or a class rework will happen.
If something’s really wrong, balance team will take care of it.
Bazinga !
