Yea, i think more for wvw and pvp

All game modes, however Anet could adjust based on game mode. When not in combat you can pick 1 condition that you will have resistance to say anywhere from 33%-%50 (just random numbers). Of course this wouldn't be permanent and could swap this resistance based on the upcoming event at hand.

you can dodge that, or avoid it with a bit of awarness, also every class has more than enough passive blocks/evades/stunbreaks/boons that could deny it almost completely, if in 2019 you are still beeing one shot by mesmers it's a complete l2p issue, maybe try it for yourself so you can understand how to counter it I never had that problem with mesmer before.

What about the insane burst from power mesmer? So fast it seems like a one shot!

"In PvP the story is quite a bit different. Up until recently the scourge kept out many of the other classes from being competitive because of how strong their aoe was. This mostly impacted melee classes and specs so Reaper was oppressed heavily by the scourge which only furthered the reaper's hatred for the elite spec. But the feeling was mutual as this was only the modern evolution of the old argument of the GW1 veteran vs New Age Necromancer." -Lily.1935 This, I mainly go PVP and Reaper was useless due to Scourge. The change to unholy matyr was the crushing blow. Blood line led by the old Unholy matyr gave me the sustain I needed and team cleanse (albeit small). I wish the Unholy matyr change would have increased condi transfer from mates to 3-5 and 2-3% life force per condi. I quit November 2017 not to return until just after the Scourge changes. I main soulbeast now... Still not incredibly happy and still trying to find a fit for reaper in the face of holos and warriors.

Thanks Zawn

Anyone know if there's statistics on what the average rank is by class?

I thought Justine posted this... LOL

Lily agreed with support aspect wrt gaining resistance pulse to you and allies every few seconds with stacks high. Why? Bc I'm back after TWO years to check out any PVP changes. MY Weaper, hrm, Reaper still gets 50k!+!+!+! fire damage death w/ every skill slot w/ condi removal!
