Human male
Fire: Its getting Hotter/ Fire!!/ Here come the flames
Warer: My power is like a tidalwave/ Water!!/ Behold the oceans power
Air: urge to kill rising/AIR!/ I call upon the storms power/Reap the whirlwind
Earth: I summon the power of Malandru/EARTH!/ I can move mountains

I feel ….STRONG (from gaining might)
Refreshing (when gaining regen)

Urge to kill rising is from getting rage :p

You should also say that is AoE so you mates get it aswell. Also you can go 30 points in Arcen and mack you dodge a Blast finisher making it pretty easy to get stacks in fight.

Dude it is the same with the Asura. 120 gold Asura cloth every weapon clips with the arm thing.

Thanks for the answers I also kept trying stuff. Female Charr do say:

Fire: “Fire!”; “Feel the flame” “Burn them”
Water: “Water!”; “Macking Waves”; “Feel the cold”
Air: “Air!”; “The wind is here” “Storm Powered”
Earth: “Earth!”; “Rock Solide!”; “Strong as stone!”

So I want to play my Ele a bit more. But for me it does not feel right what my Norn f ele says when chaning her attunement. So what do other races/ genders say when they change there attunement?

Cinder.4865:

I am fairly sure that it’s impossible to create exact “clones” of the Destiny’s Edge members during character creation. And for good reason. These characters need to stand out from everyone else.

I am pretty sure you can do logan and Eir.

Look there is a new WoW add-on so why are you here? Go grind gear.

Let’s see thievery: It still fails to get us all boons.

Confusing Images: Nice change make it a bit more usable.

CoF : QoL buff nice

MoA: I didn’t even know it does that

I warlock: they should just limit it to two warlocks at the same time instead of meeting it over and over. I can see why they did it but it is getting silly.

Phase Retreat: YES!!!!! Now I can walk and blink the way I want.

Sceptre: Haven’t tested this yet but every buff for that thing is good.

It is more then just this. It is how the hole game work. KILL everything else is worthless. You stalled 5 enemys and you team got get the point. PFFF you might aswell stand around. It is sad that it is this way the Auto balance just adds a kick in the kitten when you are actually doing what they want kill lots of stuff.

Thanks for the answer I would make it the Answer but the froum does not let me :p

You do get that Mass invis only hits up to 5 tagets and that the same goes for time loop?

I play both and I don’t get what you cry about. Both class have there strong and there weak sides. The Mesmer can survive a lot more then the ele but the ele has a lot ( and I know what I say) more raw dmg. Also the ele has the biggest arsenal of combo fields and his dodge rolle can be a finisher blast . The Mesmer on the other side can kitten with your brain that much that you don’t know what hit you.

I had this now a couple of times. We are stomping pretty hard and around 200 points for us auto balance kicked in. We still hold the lead and then around 450 points another auto balance. What is the point of balancing the game around that point? It is near over and with randome team mates ( in low level) it is not like you gone change the tide of the game that quickly. Most of the time I only hear the guys that got changed complain. Becaus basicly they lose their win bonus for the sake of balancing a game that is almost over. I am pretty new to sPvP so is there anything that I miss or is is just a big lack on A-nets side?

I think he simply crafted it one the A sura and then moved it.

It is normal for all Illusions if you out of range they don’t spawn and Leap only has 600 range. But it is also buggy and sometimes it does not spawn at all. Sometimes you don’t spaw right wasting your CDs and sometime it just does nothing even if you get a clone.

“Confusion was then reworked into something you apply in large stacks for a short duration”

Sry I lost it there. Confusion at is not reworked it is just nerfed to the ground. In beta it was used to punish the enemy for actions. It still does this if you can time it but even the the dmg you get is meh. So unless you fight a Thief, 100b Warrior or a ranger it does have little to no effect. When I play my guardian I heal more with spamming my stuff then it hurts me.

I think you can make it 20 with a trait. Or something near 20 not sure.

In the start area there is a school where Asura kids battle each other with “You Mamas IQ is so low…”

Any chance that you looked at the rare tab instead if the exotic? The rare ones don’t use unique skins only the exotic do.

Wait wasn’t what we raging about? A suras and mostly the female getting there own armour sets. At least I did. It looks stupiedbto where a tie on a female As uta with Ribbons in her hair.

Shatters are cool. You can also go with a phantasm build but the trait line for that is a bit strange. Very support oriented with trying to keep you stuff up while at the same time you got effects when you shatter them.

He is the same in PvE … bad. And a bit less hit and hide in sPvP.

I feel like the sandwichmancer class remains horribly unbalanced, NERF IT ANET!

They are just to good at macking sandwiches you can’t let that go by unchange.

But I have to blow all my cd’s just to get the lettuce where I need it to be, do you have any idea how much prep-work I have to do to perform that combo?

I don’t care it does something. I don’t udnerstand it. It must be easy.

Time Warp is a AoE that effects like 5 people. In it. In sPvP you can just move back a bit or push the Mesmer out and he wasted a 210 sek cd. In WvW 5 randome people get it when you use it on a zerg. Meaning uslessness in its purest form with all the Krama leechers running around only spamming 1. In Pve you can’t complain. Most bosses won’t let you stay in that area without hitting hard on you.

Srsly the Mesemer is counterd by Brain. I say he will get hit by the nerf hammer like a truck and then get some reworks with stuff you need certain skills to counter then you QQ’s are kittened now you are just don’t think.

@Navi:

WvW turns into Moa Vs Moa lead by mercyless Mesmers truning everyone that enters into a Moa and sending them into certain death.

Pretty new to sPvP in general so I don’t really know. I only felt relly stupied for getting 0 points after I stoped the enemy team for 30 sek and letting my team get the other points when they arrived and killed them I got nothing. Yes I was dead by then.

Nothing against them but if I use the dev track I want to see what the devs are posting and not 5 posts about the mods closing threads. Sure it is nice to the them do their job but maybe give them a diffrent place. Just a small qol improve I would like to see.

Give finish of a CD like 5 sek. So it actually means something and can’t be spammed by 5 people on you all the time.

So in free for all lobby mode you only get points for offensiv actions ( which is pretty bad for a competitv e-sports but that is a-nets problem).
What I wanted to ask if the point distribution in tournament is the same if there is any. I play a defending role on my team . Which is all nice and cool but I barly get any glory compared to my mates. It is fine in practice but if it is also in tournament A-net should change it to either give a set amount of glory or non at all. Just to be fair.

Problem with Chaos storm is that it gives awesome deffens power while being good offenssiv. Sure if you only use it on the enemy it a meh AoE at best. If you use it on allys and enemys it becomes one of the stongest AoEs you can have.

It is bad. It would be nice if it was single target and sure to hit or having a big enough AoE to hit mor then ppl standing on top of each other.

PadmaN.7820:

They do that kind of damage. Full berserker set, +250 precision sigil on swap +%5 dmg siiglon GS, +100prec/10%crit dmg food +6x Ruby Orbs, 30 in Duelist traits = 116% crit dmg and ~82% crit. Now take Trait which gives Phantasms fury. They should be at 100% crit now. Ofc some might stacks help too. For most squishy lvl 80 targets 1 zerker + shatter brings them down to ~30-40% (Except glass cannon thieves, they r almost dead at this point). Next hit is deadly. For non-level 80 even 1 zerker + shatter is deadly.

Sometimes its funny when I’m running past tower, and there is a defender on top of the wall lvl <80 and starts shooting at me. I turn back pop feedback and GS 2 + 4 + shatter and he’s dead. Guy must have ragequit.

You would die at every siege with that kind of setup . Arrow carts would melt you, catapults would kill you and don’t even think about the enemy hitting back.

No AoE DMG should pass gates or bridges. It is just stupied to stand on a bridge in Quentin and die without getting any visual effect. Also siege weapons being mostly used for defense is kind of strange.

Either you passive killing with feedback, glamour causing confusion and chaos storm. You deal very nice DMG to the enemy an can bring some nice team support.

Or you go gs and sword/x for a power single target burst build. You try to spawn clones as fast as possible and shatter stuff for AoE. Support for you side is limited in this.

It is an old trait. Back from the beta when clones did some nice DMG. Now it is just a DMG boost for phantasm.

Mybe I missed something but first of all. Breasts don’t need to be visible to function. In fact only the Human use the femal breast as a sexual trait for all other mammals they just have the function to feed the childrin till they are old enought to eat themself.
So anykind of talking about female asura having the same armour as female human is just stupied.

I want femal amour for my Asura and by that I mean armour like the race amour MADE for the race. The T3 amour pretty much highlights what the Asura see as there main feature their heads and ears. The cloth tend to be wide and comfy. Now add some bows, skirts and maybe some nice shoes and helmets that look feminin and I am happy. NO need to give my Asura boobs or to show them of. just make them look feminin.

I don’t know why you complain you get a very nice and unique animation. The only other race with a unique animation are the Asura. The rest get the float thing.

I like the ideas but they won’t come not without a total rework how the Mesmer works.

But first things first. I agree we do lack both AoE and Support. We do have tools like the iBerserker and the iWarden but both are tide to on target and die quite fast. On the other hand our other hand we got some “indrect” AoEs like Feedback and Chaos storm. Both are very strong abilitys and bring great utility to the table it is simplay that we can’t really on them. In WvW it may work but in most other cases players will just walk out of them and cleanse the stuff. Mobs seem to not care about Feedback to much becaus of there slow attack speed. Maybe we get another weapone(s) in the future that covers this but atm that is the stat. However I would also not like to give up one of my current weapons to get more AoE. All weapons we got right now are pretty solide and full do ther job prefectly ( maybe the scepter doesn’t but it s bugged as hell). We simply don’t have a AoE weapon at the moment.

Yes it would be nice if the Illusions would have the same buffs debuffs and HP as we do, but giving them the same Hp would be a bit over the top. Consider the following. All clones can stack excluding the scepter clone can stack condtions on the enemy pretty well. The sword and staff do it naturally and the GS does it pretty well with sharp images. To have a 20k + clone stacking stuff on the enemy ( and buffs on you in the case of the staff) would be to strong. I agree that they need some HP maybe armour buff but I would rather go with something like 50% of your HP 60% if traited. This in combinations with the fact that they would spawn with our Hp would make them very nice in fight without giving them to much tanking power.

I am not sure about this. While I agree that the short life spann of phantasmes is lame in PvE you can’t denie how much pain they bring at the same time. To walk around with 3 iSwordsman and just droping combo fields on them would become way to effectiv and ruin the PvP experience for a lot of people. Phantasme are a hard topic. I don’t really know a “fix”.

Staff:
1# I would set the splash to something like 300. That is extended mellee range. 10 Range would mean the characters would have to stand inside each other ^^
4# this skill is already strong. The problem is not it’s power it is the fact that you can get Chaos armour with other stuff pretty easy.

Sword: No. Mulitpele swaps would be way OP. Even if they would not count as combo finsher just the posibiltiy to change the place mulitple times can kitten with the enemy pretty hard and mack them wast CD just becaus you can blink around like crazy.

As with the weapons. I love our skills and most of them have ther use. But the problem is we have to many that do similare stuff. On weapons and ultity. Veil and Mass Inivsibility are the prim example for this.

Traits are fine imho. Sure you can’t build without your Illusions but an ele can’t build without his attuments aswell. The main problems are the reliability on phantasms and the spread of some build options ( like for the glamour builds). A button that forces and attack of the phantasm would be an option but not a perfect solution. Again I don’t really have and idea. How to fix it for good.

Sry for bad spelling and stuff typing on my smartphone.

Yes Feedback is nasty. Add the confusion trait and ppl will run out of it and try to shout you through it. insert evil laugh

Mesmers are awesome in dungones.
Either run a condition build( power, con dmg, crit) and see you warlock hit over over 3k crits or go more supporty and hand out chaos armour to everyone. Also we got Feedback, Nullfield and Time Warp. Nothing can match the utility of 10 AoE quickness.

For does guys asking for the build. I don’t know it but judging from the vid he has something like this.
http://www.gw2build.com/builds/simulator.php#1.8.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.526.530.0.545.544.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.586.587.596.20.20.0.0.30

If I reacall the times and reduces by the traits right. He has the Beserkers Amulet. Not sure about the runse maybe eagle, divnity, scholar or something else with persion, power, crit and/or crit dmg.

The only thin the iBeserker needs it to not be casted without a LoS or all Phantasmes can be spawend without LoS I don’t really care.

If you run a glass canon build in WvW even on Warrior or Guardian expect to fell the pain. Also if you let the iBeserker run havor over you and you mates up ther for more then one spin it is your fault.

Over the course of the last 3 1/2 h or so when I lead my servers Zerg my vision was like this.
Start: I see 99% of my team. The enemy loads slow buty they load. NPCs like Tower guards etc. are visibile all the time.
After 1h: Enemys start only to pop up after dead. I see rougly 80% of my guys. NPCs are still fine.
1h and 50 mins: Name bars over the enemy don’t show anymore. I don’t see my Mesmer clonse. I see roughly 35% of my team. NPCs guards take some time to load.
After 2 1/2 h: The enemys do not spawn enemy more. THe only way to tell if there is an enemy is by spamming Aoe and looking for numbers or Tabbing. I only see like 10% of my team. NPC’s guards take very long to load and some don’t appear. Wildlife is fine.
After 3h: I see non of my team. No enemy. My character and his Illusions are Invisible to me. NPCs don’t show up either. Wildlife is fine. The game is a wold of spamming AoE and looking for tapped red arrows. We think we ran into enemy zergs twic or so but we might just killed a bunsh of randomes or they walked by us. there is no way to tell. I am walking around spamming 1 looking where th beam of my GS goes.
3 1/2: The map is empty for me. THe only thing I can see is the red tab arrow and the finish and ress icons. Some AoE animations show up some don’t. On the bright site I could see all the ranger pets all the time. Some of the look really nice.

It was hard to lead something you can’t see vs something you can’t see XD

Turtles All The Way Down.5608:

Moa Morph is absolutely overpowered. There’s a reason Guild Wars 1 didn’t have hard cc, and there’s a reason games that do aren’t competitive.

kitten downs are hard cc ….

First of all. Fu sPvP community of Gw2. You are the most whiney PvP community I ever saw and I have been with the lol and data one. Of course stuff is gone hit you hard if you go full glass cannon and of course phantasms gone kill you sooner or later and if you try to only unload you DMG on the main target that can blink and go invis. Surely get it together. What’s next? Necro Op his minions hit me and he has a second HP bar?

Now to the main topic
As a WvW and PvE player this lacked me very sad. You pretty much had to choose when to bring out the warlock before because of the crappy CD and now you will pretty much never have him up. Oh a boss with a lot of condtions let’s pull out the warlock. 2k hit 2,9k crit annnd it is dead. Meanwhile all other classes do more DMG then the warlock pre hit and can keep it up.
Calling it now next our Mind Wrack CD will get needed because burst builds burst with him.

The scepter is bugged atmas far as I know. Yes it does use the same animation as the guardian mace and yes that thing is bugged aswell. Both take longer to complete then intened and both are not effecte by traits for most parts. Try to use the scepter with quickness it still will be rather slow compared to other stuff wich does not make sense.

A CC with scuh a long cast time that can be dodge is far from being OP-

Stun is supioire to Moa in everyway. The only thing Moa has over other CC is that it lasts longer.

I agree with most gone post my opinion the next day I basicly only post here so I can fin it again.

The current issu with full phantasm builds is

1) They are hard countred by AoE dmg and pretty much any thing is AoE atm.
1.1) On the other hand the skill to spawn the again are rather long even when traited.
2) Most of the traits that make them last longer ( hp reg trait, retatlation trait etc) are bugged. They either don’t work or stop working after the first buff runs out ( 10sek)
3) Most of them spawn in mellee range or have a bad pathing. The dulist is one of the best phantasm becaus he is rather save . Other tend to either spawn in mellee rang or to run far to close when they chase (warlock).

Over all phantasm builds can be great and I ran it for a time in PvE and curshed stuff pretty easy but as soon as you get either more tanky enemys, with more AoE then every 20 sek or just groups standing closer togther they start to become less usfull.
In WvW they die becaus of the massiv AoE. They can be very usfull to take down gates and other stuff.
One the other hand builds like conditon dmg or even pur dmg do pretty well consitent dmg and still can have phantasms hit hard. For example my warlock does roughly 1600dmg with no crit and two conditions on the enemy. With full phantasm build he does about 1700 dmg. He has a bit more Hp and gets more crits and does bleeding on crits but in my condtions builds my condtions over weight that and I can way more tanky.

edit: yes look at the videos Farstryker posted they are very good. I may disagree with the usfullness of some stuff but MrPrometheus has a pretty good way to get his knowledge to people.

Yes they die rather quick and most will run into melee ranger. You can builder for them but I would rather use them in a mi of either a power or condtion build they still do insane dmg.
