kitten seven! You finally started recording, Great stuff man. You are One of the best elementalist’s I’ve had the pleasure of fighting. And your still on the same build! After all this time. Keep it up, I look forward to seeing more.
I would say use GS or scepter/sword instead of staff.
Our staff phant has a habit of missing stationary targets let alone moving ones. I have a bias towards GS since it has such raw dps and range, but sc/sw could give you extra blocks and a higher DPS phant since you aren’t shattering much. Esp since you have 2900 toughness and condi cleanse you may not need the extra defence of the staff?
i was just considering this myself, im not a fan of gs atall tho, so it would have to be scepter sword, ive played mesmer for around a year now, and the whole time ive used staff because i like the sruvival/mobility, might be time to give it up tho
Illusions inherit your precision stat, not the crit chance itself, so that Sigil of Accuracy on the staff won’t be helpful. Empowered Illusions will work though because phantasms are illusions.
ah i wasn’t aware of that, thank you, although i find for myself having 30% crit chance is a pretty nice cap with the fury from staff clones to increase my own damage more and capitalize on that ferocity
maim pu would be awesome
hey guys. ive been looking for a new build for WvW roaming, ive played maim shatter for the past few months, and while i have great fun with it, its time for a change, i like to be tanky as i often find myself alone, but i still like to put out decent damage.
with that in mind i decided i would give a tanky phantasm build a go, but i have a few questions regarding it, heres the build.

now for the questions.
do phantasms share my crit chance? meaning they would have 49% crit chance with phantasmal fury?
does empowered illusions effect phantasms? as far as i am aware it does, but i would like to make sure.
and a basic one..is 2.3kpower(with bloodlust) and 1k ferocity enough for this build to put out decent damage? would you change anything?
thanks for any help in advance
teef! It seems I’ve fought you loads recently in tpvp, some nice fights (tasbre)
Anyway, I use a 0/6/4/0/4 condition build, focused on duelists, with phantasmal haste and extra range on pistol, with krait runes and rabid amulet, and I can’t say I have any trouble with thiefs, soon as they pop out of stealth there hit with 8stacks of bleed and whatever other conditions I get off between scepter and staff, usally there drag it out, but by then I get another duelist out and there eating around 16stacks of bleeds, I have enough defence with rabid amulet and active defence with staff etc to be able to take there initial burst on the chin, this build also does great against thiefs who run condi removal as the application of condis is so consistent
