Guild Wars 2

Are you certain about the 5 vulnerability stacks per shatter? I just tried hitting target dummy with Shatter Daze and got 1 stack per clone, max 4 stacks.

Interesting. So 2 questions:

1. Diversion, I think that’s shatter 3, does it give 5x stacks of vulnerability per clone? I don’t see it on the info page.

2. This seems to say that crit damage is pretty straightforward.

So I can buy +25% damage if you have full vulnerability when you are shattering, but this is not always the case in his videos, it’s usually straight shatter. Can you tell me what food does?

Okay, based crit dmg is 150%

+50% crit dmg = 200% overall
+100% crit dmg = 250% overall

This is a 25% increase in crit dmg. Thus:

With +50% Crit
Sword 2 hits for 3k with crits in WvW
Each MW hits for 1 – 1.25k = 5k
Total = 8k

With +100% Crit
Sword 2 hits for 3.75k with crits in WvW
Each MW hits for 1.25 – 1.5k = 6k
Total = 9-10k

Getting better but still not quite there. Any other thoughts?

Hello Osi and Team mesmer,

Been reading Osi’s epic post and gotten about 10 pages in so far and watched almost all the videos.

Been trying to figure out shattercat for the last couple days and I must be missing something. I’m rather new to the mesmer, so that would definitely make sense. =)

I’ve been practicing on the PVP dummies in the Heart of the Mists. The problem for me is that a full shatter vs light target for example gives MW x 4 at 1k-1.2k with crits, then follow up with Sword 2 hits for about 3k with crits. Therefore I get a burst of about 7-8k when everything crits and about 5-6k normally.

Seems good, but not super powerful. I’m not seeing these 15-18k bursts that people seem to achieve quite regularly. I have my crit chance at 44% and crit damage at 50%, and I understand full WvW gear would up my crit damage to around 100%. Even so, I have a hard time seeing how to get to the burst dmg ppl are describing. What am I missing here?

Thanks!

Hello all.

I think its my first time posting here haha, not like i needed too untill now! Anyways here i go!

I have just got back inactive for just under a month, but before that i have been a busy body! im a huge crafting lover of the game.

I am an Maxed Elementalist (Along with 2 other characters Maxed) which has maxed out all crafting proffestions in the game.

The guild i was in has become inactive and in the US, so im looking for an active guild now, a medium/high population PVE Guild which would love to have me as one of there crafters! I catch on quick regarding the instances, have done alot of them already but not the new ones yet. i am exotic equiped throughout my characters also.

Just looking for a mature guild which would love to have what i worked so hard to achieve.

I also have most of the Chat Client from Skype to Mumble, which would be awsome if a guild uses one of those, as i do like to chat hehe!

I am on Gunners Hold at the moment but waiting to Transfer to the Guild which takes me on.

Anyways thanks again! looking forward to hearing from someone!
