@Stand The Wall.6987 said:dood. it removes STABILITY.So what? This wont replace IH that contain all the damage from ambush because all ambushes were gutted to be somewhat decent only with 2-3 clones.Its literally does nothing most of the time, you dont want to be melee in front of someone almost never except quick burst on power mesmer. At least with IH you can save your clones from some AoEs.GRANDMASTER is worse than MINOR ADEPT trait... but but...stability rip! xD

Try this build, it steals boons for days with tons of dmg. Perfect build vs heavy boon classes like boonbeast, holo, etc...Been running his build for about a month now and i can say its op vs heavy boonclasses, even the dmg from dune claok is pretty good on this build since you stack so much might together with superiority complex. Its a good overall build vs all classes with the potential to 1vx, tho i gotta say its a build for the more experienced mesmers out there!http://gw2skills.net/editor/?PiwAEx/lRwoYXsEmJW6OVPdA-zVZYBRNRErYo9iOCS4MyUq2tqSxHgA2DvjqXA-w

On top of that this stupid mount and just broken overall due to all stats,food, split balance.In pvp CI is pretty much deleted and you with your build would be deleted as well even if they wouldnt disable CI :D

dood. in what world should something do the same damage as something else, but with a powerful functionality on top of that? step back and think about this. comparing traits between two professions without looking at the big picture is not a persuasive argument.

Every single evade trait like daredevil one is a strong trait with powerful functionality, lets nerf it to be on par with MemeCloak?Compared to any this trait is pure garbage, not even that, mirage cant even exist now without IH as I said before ambushes were gutted and ambush alone without clones is trash.Literally every evade on daredevil is better than this, on top provide unremovable unique buff.Even if you return unnerfed EM condi builds will never drop IH as without it they wont do any damage and only power oneshot builds would pick it just to run away freely if they fail. About "the bigger picture" not even one mesmer build is viable without IH and wouldnt be unless they drastically buff personal ambush and gut clone one, until then, its trash and the only one who is not seeing the bigger picture is you.Your the only "argument" BUT IT REMOVE STABILITY !11111 is weak and laughable.Certain trait on one class shouldnt be buffed/nerfed because similar trait belong to another class? Like Second skin on soulbeast had 33% condi damage reduction and scrapper barrier had 20% and it was nerfed to be equal on 20%, but then you should have been the first who would defend this screaming BUT SOULBEAST IS NOT SCRAPPER!11 Look its two different classes!How even we would know something is OP and something is not if we dont looking for similar traits and classes. What favoritism is when you let be one thing busted on one class and be clearly trash on another, thats favoritism and its clearly not in mesmer favor with all whine and mesmer haters like you

Here here mate, fully and completely agree!

They really need to make IH baseline to make this trait worth it then. Complaining that sand shards doesn’t do enough damage isn’t right though. It is a utility trait, it really shouldn’t do both.

As for replacing IH, I would suggest that they straight up have a “ambush attacks deals x amount of more damages” so that you can take it whether you go for condi or power damages.

The worst part about Dune Cloak?

...The visual effect.

I don't care what it does, that visual "pop" style explosion is jarring for the eyes and really uncomfortable to look at when using it for an extended period of time. It completely kills the trait for me.

Audio and visual comfort is the most important balance.

Dune Cloak needs a build with more survivability, which reduces it’s damage too much to really wear down an opponent. Unfortunately, survival power builds lose too many multipliers by giving up precision for toughness and thus lose too much in PvP. In WvW such builds can be made and are durable and do fair damage, but a lot of it ends up coming from passive might generation and vulnerability stacks coupled with the little bit of condition damage gained from vigor and might stacks to up the damage of several of the abilities connecting which when coupled with ripping boons can shutdown all sorts of highly durable but boon reliant enemy builds. Once again, that can be done in WvW but not sPvP.

Nope! I take dune cloak on mantra mirage for ranked so yeah, ppl use it. It helps with holo, ranger, guard, and any other classes with stab as we can steal it.

There's your single build.
