at the least there ought be a choice involved other than sitting out the fight. mesmers can adapt to the situation with whether or not they’ll summon illusions, but rangers have no choice

Mesmers still nerfed for world completion?

in Bugs: Game, Forum, Website

Posted by: Lumpy.8760

Lumpy.8760

This issue should be fixed; the world complete star shouldn’t show up on mesmers or their clones for opposing players in WvW or sPvP. Teammates will still be able to see the star. If opposing players can still see this, please provide details on how this occurred (if known) along with a screenshot.

Thanks, everyone!

what if i want them to see it? having a star means i’m experienced with the character, and it inspires a challenge from my opponents. how about titles; are you going to hide them, too?

CONFUSION needs to be buffed in pve

in Mesmer

Posted by: Lumpy.8760

Lumpy.8760

confusion should make enemies able to hit allies with their attacks, unintentionally or otherwise.

for realsies though, maybe confusion in PVE could have its duration boosted but consumes the stack of confusion when they attack. you could stack a lot more confusion easier this way and it’d be more reliable regardless of the mob’s attack speed.

Snow ball PVP achievements? Seriously?

in Wintersday

Posted by: Lumpy.8760

Lumpy.8760

i unknowingly got all of the achievements while oblivious to them just playing for fun

here’s a fun tip: whenever you’re at the spawn, you can use the scout’s snowblind then switch to your weapon of choice to get a free burst of speed

oh yea, and once you get downed the first time, you’ll benefit from your pvp trait attribute bonuses until you leave the game. it will carry over across consecutive rounds

and you always benefit from the pvp amulet, but not your runes.

You broke my longbow...

So basically they made an error months ago (possibly since launch) and figured their customers should wear the responsibility for their mistakes? That being the case I’d like a refund on the transmutation stones I purchased. Customers shouldn’t be responsible for mistakes the devs made, that’s pretty poor customers service and isn’t something that’s going to foster anything positive.

error or not, it was an opportunity to purchase a normally expensive skin for a much lower price and diminished its value. perhaps if you knew it was a cultural tier 3 skin you could have forseen the possibility of it being changed and avoided such anguish?

I’ve explained how people are being treated with examples. I don’t have to declare the nature of my handicap to my school for funding. I certainly don’t have to expose such a vulnerability to these forums.

then why mention it
it’s only a handicap if you think it is.

You guys must be channeling some psychic powers this weekend. We agree arrows need to be a bit faster to make DPS against moving targets a bit more reliable. 12/14 can’t come soon enough. :P

Duelist discipline broken to not work?

in Mesmer

Posted by: Lumpy.8760

Lumpy.8760

When I choose the trait, the tooltip is updated on Magic Bullet

But Phantasmal Duelist is not affected…

Since pistol only has TWO SKILLS the trait not working on one of them is pretty bad.

Because Phantasm summoning skills are affected by Illusion summoning and are not considered skills to be affected by the weapon traits. You will find this holds true for every single weapon trait. There is only 1 skill per weapon that is affected by these traits and makes them not nearly as appealing.

you’re both wrong

turn on “show skill recharge” in f11; despite the 16 in the description, with duelist’s discipline + illusionist’s celerity you’ll see that phantasmal duelist has a 12 second recharge

and take phantasmal haste, then time their attacks with chaos storm, feedback, null field or time warp for lots of confusion, which is merely icing on a cake; the cake of crazy bleeding and damage! mmmm cake

do the duelists still grant regeneration twice as often? man duelists are awesome. sure are annoying though. stack dat protection then signet of inspiration to share the love

All phantasms now utterly broken.

in Mesmer

Posted by: Lumpy.8760

Lumpy.8760

i think this was a bug related to a trait that made phantasms attack immediately, which was one of the phantasm boon traits.

with this new change, i think phantasm creation should once again ignore line of sight. being attacked from behind a wall by berserkers and such won’t be a problem because they will be easily killed before given a chance to attack

Why the odd change to iMage?

in Mesmer

Posted by: Lumpy.8760

Lumpy.8760

3 seconds is short unless its effected by +CD duration effects, in which case its not so bad.

it’s not, and it never was affected by condition duration from any source

but it was.

When playing with an experimental confusion build about a month ago, I could get the confusion to last about 14+ seconds. Both in the tooltip and experimentally.

I’m not sure if it still does this, but it most definitely did.

you must be thinking of something else; several other sources of confusion were certainly affected by condition duration from anything that wasn’t food, but Illusionary Mage’s could never be boosted. same applies for Confusing Combatants, and conditions from clones

Make phantasm attacks rely on mesmer LOS

in Mesmer

Posted by: Lumpy.8760

Lumpy.8760

revert the changes to phantasms and implement a mechanic that allows phantasms to attack its target only while the mesmer has line of sight.

this would negate wasteful feelings when failing to create a phantasm, and preserve the satisfaction in making a phantasm from around a corner without being too powerful.
