Sry for double post but it applys 8s blind instead of 4 as intended ment blinding ashes
trait info says its 4s blind in reality it lasts 8 seconds.
I played around the shattering phantasms and this is what I came up to
not sure abouth torch but mage isent so bad now it is source of fury
They are popular with condi thief . Mesmer . Engi .warrior .necro .also have seen few condi else use them after patch guardian with auto attack knock back and rev ofc so it’s cind a popular with every class on condi build….
And as much as mesmer dps with same gear from 300 range mesmer great sword auto attack makes 5x less damage than warriors great sword auto attack and from over 900 range 2.1x less dmg (yea I know warriors need to be in melee range ) but if we loose burst our dps has to be buffed alot to be on same lvl as rest of classes
I would be perfectly happy with that! Greatsword auto is poor and the aftercast has needed fixing for the longest time.
I just think that condi PU has too much defense for its counterpressure and that mind wrack has too much pure power dmg when traited. Welcome to compensate a 10% mindwrack nerf for a 15% auto attack dmg increase.
I agree on condition mesmer totaly high conditions pressure needs to be tied to crit not to hit what makes conditions mesmer so strong atm

you forgot thief can perma blind with black powder.
quit complaining about stealth being under powered.
it is not.
Hmm stop just stop please ur making fool of urself…. permanent blind lol it has 120 range so all auto attacks have more range than this…. small tip don’t stand in it… and eaven if you stand in it the ammount of inisative it needs is alot….
But gyros the drone things seems to be really fimilar to clones on generation and use?? You can set up certain ammount and than use them for different works?
Problem is not mesmer problem is dire gear
First off i want to apologize for my bad English and this is only a idea.
Many problems in wvw and pve comes from ppl just stacking very close togeder making doll and booring gameplay.
My sulotion would be that you can no longer pass trooh other players or npcs.
What it would solve.
1. In pve dunceons players no longer stack togeder in small corner beacose there is not enough room for every 1 there and same for enemy npc forcing players to fight on open like its intended.
2. It will make wvw more tacktical were some players can shield others with theyr bodys and wount let enemys pass certain landscapes ( you can walk over downed body) it will bring back meaning to melee classes and arenanet could bring back old stability beacose reason it was made like this was that enemy melee could easlyly pass trooh everything. Also a lot other tacktical movments (smaller groups would be viable beacose they are easyer to manage and will have more mobility).
3. In open world ppl will not run trooh ur body and ruin ur screenshots maibe?? xD
Downside
1. Ppl can troll you and surround you and than you have to waypoint or teleport out of ur corrent location
For ending i know there are a lot of ppl who would like everything to stay like it is but I hope some of you will support me and want game to get better.
Server loyalty is joke most wvw guilds always jump if theyr current server gets 2 blob by or there are no 1 to fight on borderlandd
Mesmers damage was allready nerfed so if mesmer is op play it urself life other side of fence seems always green grass and sunshine and if you can’t dodge mesmer burst it’s ur plsystyle problem. What is annoying in wvw are all the dire conditions roamers they just tank soo much damage it’s impossible to kill them 1 vs 1
Top tier servers are full free players will join eny server what’s not full and balenciaga wvw like this I do not like they way you are thinking of them as resorses.
Could we just w8 until all elite specs are out and bugs and pre and aftercasts are fixed and than in few weeks we have good overview what’s too powerful and stuff. I preferre all classes to function good and work well. If you constantly Nerf every class than look back you realize that in longer period of time you have both buffed and nerfed all classes (accept guardians they have always stayed same lucky kittens xD)
So lets chill abit till everything is out and let devs do theyr job and have a nice day.
Evade only appears when you dodge in range of attack if you use dodge to make distance of enemy than it won’t register as evade
I bet free core game will have lvl limitation also they will be locked off from tradeingpost and mail trade like beta character’s otherwize ppl will create insane ammounts of now accounts and make money from daily rewards
All insta cast can be cast when ccd and it’s just 1 second immune wit no clones also mesmers are really classy without active defences also soft cc like immobiliser cripple and freeze counters mesmer really hard alot harder than stuns and knockdown try it
buy could torch 4 give blast at start of skill not at end it would be much better, similar to guardian focus 5 were blast at beginning makes no sence xD (its really good thath its in beginning tough)
it must be bug what came with this patch
ps already going to eb I can finaly successfully banner ppl xD enemys but still xD I feel like a hero
(edited by baylock.1703)
I want new F1 for thief to be bribe it has 24/h cooldown and costs extra 1gold to use and after you use it enemy will become ally for 24/h and fight with you <)
Ps I’m peaceful guy and also it will bring a lot of play into it so you need to pick best player from enemy team kitten it would not work in pvp nm.
nerf vampire runes they 2 OPP
i mean battles of 15 vs 30 its impossible to stop enemys from hard ressing
I bet a lot of us have been really hardly outnumbered fights were you need to work really hard to take down one of enemys and only for enemys to hard ress hes before you get to another one and there is nofthing to stop it. My solution would be to allow hard ress ppl only when person who is reviveing is out of combat and you are not allowed to continiue as soon as you are in combat , makeing smaller scale groups more viable.
My English is not best hope you got my point and it only applys for wvw.
I tried afking during event in event area and I got no rewards so these ppl actually have to kill atlast 1 mob to get rewards for event so i see no problem here
best way do deal with condi pu Mesmer is to stand still until you have torment and than laugh and run away no 1 has time to deal with them xD they can play with themselves and they have very minimal damage when you don’t attack them back or get endless supply of condi clense works also and my best trick don’t dodge 1 clone but run away until they stealth than let it hit you by purpose xD but first option is best mimic + blink and wave at the new mesmers and let them learn the class to be honest I’m not eaven mad pu condi is good build for beginner mesmers to get hang of mechanics.
PS i don’t hate pu condi general I hate the stats they use usealy sinister is ok every other stats set is cheese its just soo booring to fight them
(edited by baylock.1703)
i will start maining thief if thief would get on land trident xD quit my 3 years main mesmer and start maining thief
my buddy from guild did something similar some time ago we called it ninja medic build xD he used something like this http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vZAQNAoaFlsMhSnY3Tw8JOYKIfMexE4FIADo30I0BA-T1RDABGqE8X1f0Z/BAOBA9qPQinAQzK/EEw3A-w
funny thing beacose you have like 4k armor wile rezzing and -25 % dmg in stealth you take very minimal damage xD
in case of zombie apocalypse use PU and torch xD
stop being so cheap and stop playing pu condi and get urself a ZERKER gear….
i never stomp other mesmers in wvw unless they play pu condi no respect
That’s ok, playing with that mindset will just get you stomped by people playing PU condie left, right, and center. Thankfully, we aren’t hampered by your artificial constructs of ‘cheapness’ and ‘honor’ in WvW. Instead, we simply play what’s best, and crush those that don’t.
Though as a special honor, I’d let you bleed out with a clone on you if I happen to run into you, just for kicks.
summons ross biddle
Nop I have inspiration so endless supply of condi clense so they do not actually manage to deal eny damage to me but mesmers playing pu condi with dire gear what most do makes them really booring to fight with and i usealy cant be bothered so I just leave them if there is other ppl to fight on map , if there isent il take the 10 to 15 minutes what it takes to kill them. But imagine thiefs , warriors how hard will you conter these classes….. and playing pu condi is soooo passiv you could mind as well play it eyes shut…
stop being so cheap and stop playing pu condi and get urself a ZERKER gear….

why ppl still cry abouth moa … first of all you can dodge it if for some reason you did not dodge it or block it or blind it or be just out of Mesmer sight than there is nb 4 skill what evades attacks you heard it right Mesmer gave ya free evade we soo friendly towards enemys we just want world peace with rainbows and unicorns and purple butterflys.
Attachments:
do not create phantasms for shatter also do not dodge just to get clone out of it if you play vs player dodge hes skills and than make counterattack with shatter also mindwreck with 1 illusion is deacent dmg just don’t worry abouth clones and mindwrack with atlast 1 clone up
It needs to get its bounce back or give us trait what adds exra bounce to it like prepatch its impossible to take town enywfing remotely bunky with brains now beacose Mesmer has no dps we just has burst and bunky classes just outheal us now.
like only thing worth mentioning what mesmers got baseline is illusionary persona the extra bounce was removed from gs nb 2 and you can take all other baseline also we don’t care we cant add extra bounce from trait to gs and it was removed as baseline from gs so we are weaker now than we were pre patch
Necrotize gets me could we get trait to add 1 bounce to mirror blade
I honestly think the nerf to Mirror Blade was justified
I thing all other nerds were justified but not mirror blade
I told we gonna get nerved and from all the wrong places been Messer from beta and saw it coming from mile away really sad about mirror blade Nerf…
If you don’t understand how big Nerf it is than let me tell you mirror blade looses 40% of dig bc tied hit you have 6 might and enemy has 6 vunrebility and mindwreck after it looses 3% damage
So greatsword basic burst looses almost 25% of damage
(edited by baylock.1703)
So in regards to Mesmer burst, I just have a suggestion that can be discussed and will be open for feedback
So currently mesmers have a trait that allows err.. I can’t remember i think 30% extra damage to foes not using a skill, and basically when caught off guard, or interrupted/stunned(not able to use skills) you can get 1 shot bursted.
So my suggestion to tone down this incredible burst that Mesmers have right now, would simply be, do what you did to Thieve’s “Mug” Trait, don’t let the trait Crit, Other wise give us back Crit on Mug(steal)
.
I would even go as far as not letting mind wrack Crit, but that’s me personally
Also if this trait is adept, or base, then feel free to tell me.
Get ur facts straight before posting everything bonus 30% applys only to mind wrack the F1 skill making it not crit means taking this trait will decrease dmg lol
But than you would have to time ur dazes to be awarded not just get ensured stun every time. Like this clever play is awarded and random spamming is punished and you would need to choose between pu and immobiliser on inturubt making it more difficult and tactical and therefore fun to play
Now is it only me or does confounding suggestions really undermined chaotic interruption beacons if you stun on daze who cares if you get interrupt and immob might coming with it and yes its difference of 1.25s and 2s but still what I would propouse is to make confounding suggestions increase daze duration 100% wile not stunting eny more just flat daze duration increase so enemy can still move and dodge after it and when you have chaotic interruption also 1 sec daze is 2s daze+ 2s immobilize (as all know immob + daze is nasty version of stun bc you need to cleanse immob and break daze)
Lets talk about it.
I played mount and blade Vikings conquest gonna get back in gw2 tomarrow
Thank god it was removed I can enable game sound again beacose my friend has howler
also it removes condis near shatter effect 240 range so you need to be close to shatter target it removes them also from allys
The worst part is that reflect reveals its super annoying basically with manipulation trait you can’t use mass inv in combat vs so e classes
I like to know one act what you did as mesmer what ur really proud of.
For me it is winning downed fight vs Condi ranger I was downed before hem I still don’t believe I managed it.in pvp
Stay out of line of sight . It makes clones come melee than destroy them dodge mesmer gs2 rest deal minimal dmg block berzerker phantasm (don’t try blocking enyfing else gs2 is unblockable ) make mesmer fallow you never chase mesmer we lover when ppl fallow us it makes landing our skills so much easyer.
1st Watch it
(its a fast video like 15 secs)2nd: Its clear to me thats this is a broken game right now. Enjoy.
Disclaimer 1: Im not full zerker i run some Knights(power precision toughness) armors and amulets/rings. I was running Signet of Stone(180 passive toughess) plus toughness utility food
Disclaimer 2: It were only 1 mesmer atacking me, i checked damage logs. You can notice i checked damage logs right after the stomp, i couldnt believe in what i just saw.
yes you have low vitality mesmers apply enough vunrebility not to care of toughness try valk stats much more effective vs mesmers
