Guild Wars 2

@Raunchy
Wouldn’t a revamp on offhand sword along with the new traits be good? And by a revamp I don’t mean buff, I mean to give us a better reason to use them and see them in wvw more often! (Should I start such a topic after the new builds take place or they’ll consider me as a troll?)

Would love to see Sword/Sword Mesmers… I mean, come on, sword offhand can easily replaced by everything. (except one specific build that is going to be spoiled after the patch)

I see. So phantasmal haste is broken, then I think your build is the only real option here.
Was thinking about 10/20/15/25/0 ( one guy had mentioned in a previous reply) as well but I think I will have to wait till lvl 80 and see how things are working.
Thank you for the great guide!

Hello Pyro! I’m new to the game and really excited. I was planning my build even before I start playing but found out that confusion’s build are kind of a waste.
So i saw your build the other day and I really loved how it looks.
I made some changes, though, but can’t really test if it is worthy (since I’m lvl 40 and completely inexperienced) so I desperately need your opinion. Even it is completely theoretical.
Here’s the link for the build: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fgAQRAra8clwzaoXUTmGbNJxZGQP6oUgdvTqgqLfA3A-TEALKA

So (theoretically speaking):
Cons:
Cooldowns are almost the same except the magic bullet (loosing 2 sec on blurred frenzy and gaining 2 sec for illusionary counter)
-150 precision (200 when sword is on)
-50 vitality
-30% move speed speed (when got 3 illusions)
Pros:
+20% att speed on phantasm attacks (more stacks of bleed?)
+200 malice (stronger bleed no? Or almost zero difference?)
+9% increase dmg to myself (with 3 illusions)

So I got 2 questions:
1) Will -200 precision destroy the build? Will the illusions be able to land criticals and stack more bleed than before?
2) Compare to this guide’s build, is mine worthy at all? I mean, am I throwing away much more than what I’m gaining?
