Double energy for sure, especially with the vigour nerf.

Then air or fire, depending on your preference of single target dps or aoe burst potential.

So 1 energy in the GS and 1 on the sword ?

Any other suggestions? I would love to hear diffrent opinions from other people! Really helps me alot

A few days ago i asked about gear and runes but i forgot all about sigils. Im playing shatter mesmer with berserker gear with GS and Sword/Torch. I have no idea which sigils i should use for my weapons. Any help is really appreciated

Ive been looking around and im thinking about going fire/air in the GS and energy/something else in the Sword/torch but idk if its really any good.

Yeah thats what i was thinking, to start playing shatter until i learn how the other classes work and what to interrupt Thank you all for the help it really means alot!

ghors.5418:

is the gear from trading post better than the honor badge gear?

Nope they’re all of exotic quality, which means they all have the same stats. However, gear purchased with badges cannot be salvaged, so if you decide you don’t want that armor anymore, you won’t be able to salvage it for the runes.

I have enough honor badges to get the pvp gear but idk like which set. Invaders/Knights/Carrion/Clerics/Berserkers/Rabid? Would be awesome if someone could help me out.

Ive been reading around a bit and some people say that pack runes with berserker gear is the best for wvw roaming? Is that so or? Idk im really clueless

Berserker gear with Superior Runes of the Pack is the best set up for running a shatter build for roaming. It’s very glassy and is meant to be a burst spec, which is good for taking down a small amount of enemies at a time. It’s mostly good for roaming by yourself or a small group, because in berserker gear you’ll get run down by an enemy zerg in no time flat. However, if you’re with a giant zerg and you have voice communication with the zerg and/or a small perimeter party, you can use the shatter build to pick off single targets from the side of the fight.

If you want to run in the thick of things with mesmer, I suggest a set of Soldier’s gear because it will provide you with the necessary toughness and vitality to survive without dying immediately from a stray AoE. I can’t really comment on the effectiveness of a zergling mesmer build, but the shatter build is both strong and useful for team fights, and is very satisfying to play once you get the hang of it

Thank you so much! This was very helpful! Ive been reading a bit about interrupt mesmer aswell, would zerker gear with pack runes be useful for them aswell? Cus i really wanna test both interrupt and shatter mesmers

PvP uses it’s own gear, so is it for WvW only or also PvE?

Then only for WvW since i wont be doing PvE

Hello guys, I just dinged 80 for the first time in GW2 and my class is ofc mesmer. I was wondering what kind of gear I should go for? I have enough honor badges to get the pvp gear but idk like which set. Invaders/Knights/Carrion/Clerics/Berserkers/Rabid? Would be awesome if someone could help me out. I will mostly pvp and is the gear from trading post better than the honor badge gear?
