Underwater is a zone where mesmers are actually fast and can put off a fight. Of course it has to go.

Rofl.

I think you wrote the title wrong mate… The title should be “Increasing Condi Duration needs a cap”

OP creates thread about not comparing professions.
Thread is populated with posts about comparing professions.
Profit.

Also R.I.P. Mesmers

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Vee Wee was indeed the world first rank 80. Also Vee Wee is the #1 Engi NA! Wahoo!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

PS Turret Engis are pretty awful! Not the players but the build! Also sometimes the players too! And that makes for this really useless weight to carry on a team! Like a dumbbell that doesn’t turn your biceps into beefceps!

;P Jackalope has seen the Eternal Alchemy.

Due to all Bugs. For getting nothing. To be a veilbot.

- Just give me a scroll to select a new class and instant lvl 80. -

(Thy Kirito for this amazing Idea)

Elementalist: Asura

Arenanet balance philosophy is a mix of nihilism and minimalism.

This thread also shows that the hate isn’t limited to ranger forums.

Just some fun. Each rank has a mascot, so post your meaning for them.

Rabbit: I run away fast.

Deer: I run away really fast.

Dolyak: I don’t need to run…….as much.

Wolf: Hunting – Er, PvPing with the pack. Alone is suicide.

Tiger: Mmm…Dolyak meat. Roar.

Bear: You want some of this? You want some? I’m a big, husky bear. Come at me, bro.

Shark: Dun dun – Dun dun – Dundundundundundundundun LOL PWNT!!!!

Phoenix: I am awe-inspiring and magnificent. Bask in my glory, you mere mortals. Bask I say, bask.

Dragon: I spent way too much time in this game.

A: Arcane Thievery does not rule.

Wow, that would create a sick decap mesmer.. Focus 4 → iswap → pull

Too lazy for words.. so here’s an awesome vid!

I think we are perhaps at a crossroads. I can’t seem to convince you that Blurred Frenzy isn’t quite as powerful as you make it out to be, and I likewise doubt you’ll convince me on the merits of letting retal go through it.

You seem a little fixated on the (relatively) low cooldown of Blurred Frenzy. This is a deceptive line of thinking. Take Obsidian Flesh for example. It has roughly four times the cooldown, but you are not rooted in place, you can use all other abilities (and attunement swaps) and it can even be used while stunned. In the hands of a knowledgeable player this skill can be just as if not more effective than a Mesmer’s sword on a more regular basis. Simply moving away from a glass Elementalist is not going to cut it when he uses this skill. On a similar note evades like Flanking Strike and Disabling Shot have no cooldown at all.

On the whole sword is a balanced weapon that errs on the side of defense. This is true for all the classes who can use a sword. Rangers have a total of ~1.5 seconds of evade uptime and heal denial, Guardians have a full projectile block, Warriors and Thieves have a displacement that doesn’t require a target (and in the case of Thieves it clears a condition). Of course retal can go through an evade, but this is misleading since the only comparable multi-hit skill is Pistol Whip, which did have issues with retal until the Trickery line was buffed.

When you approach skills holistically you understand why it is folly to cross-compare too much. One of the key differences between a Mesmer’s sword and another class’ set and a good reason it’s unwise to balance it out of context is that our sword is heavily weighted on the effectiveness of Blurred Frenzy. We are the only light class trying to use one and if we have to stand in place for two seconds it needs to be for a very good reason. (Swap has some defensive uses but it is much less reliable). Twelve seconds may sound short but it is a very long time for a glassy Mesmer, which is why skills and their cooldowns are so relative. But if players are still having trouble trying to combat this skill without abusing retal then I don’t know what more I can say.

Moa is a weak elite. I don’t understand why people call it an “I Win Button”. Mesmers who use it in competitive PvP are gimping themselves.

I very rarely die from Moa.

“That Fool He-man!!…”

Only one thing…..looks like Skeletor

My mesmer with the Lovestruck Pistol I won in a spring dungeon screenshot contest

Technically.. since Ben Franklin invented the lightning rod, wouldn’t that make him an engineer? =P

Also, this article reminds me as to why I feel like one of the most underestimated human resources is our imagination. Imagination guides our focus, our ambition, and even our ability to learn and remember. People often underestimate “imagination” as being only for games and children, but our ability to imagine things has helped us overcome massive obstacles, invent amazing technology, and apparently even cure diseases through sheer willpower.

The one thing I think most schools fail to teach is how to properly utilize this.

Finally felt confident enough in a set I have been working on for my engi to post in /r/guildwarsdyejobs. Figure I should share it here too.

Finally got my Sunrise today! So pleased with it.

I Covered Wars.4380:

I don’t see Asura on here.

I think the poll was “which class is the most OP?”, not “which race is the most classy?” but I can see how you’d be confused

Triple-Swords \o/

Because style matters. No use dominating the world if you look lame.
