I did say that maybe I just suck, so calm your nerd-rage glands people.
Shatter mesmers i don’t find all that OP, cause you just have to dodge their big shatters, it’s really the perma-stealth condi lockdown mesmers I find to be extremely difficult. Really, maybe it’s just the perma-stealth ability, that shouldn’t be possible by any class.
Condi Mesmer isn’t viable at all. Just ignore them, pull them to teamfights and your team will win easily. The biggest mistake people do is to fight every encounter. For example, how to deal with rampage in teamfights: If your team don’t have a Moa up, just disengage and push another note. PvP is not about winning equal fights all over the map.
