  1. I mainly roam on Willbender now. Join the dark side and all that. At least when I die I know it was 100% my own fault and I am pretty safe from nerfs. A completely new feeling. Looking at patch notes without anxiety, can you imagine that?
  2. Why does this trait even have a built in duration reduction when they balance it based on 100% alacrity uptime anyway?
  3. It is probably just an oversight that will be "fixed" soon.
  4. With Illusions its 10 1/4 edit: If you take Shatter Storm
  5. I agree, if you actually want to use it for its intended purpose and not to spam heals in some edge case build you often run into the problem that your target is barely out of range suddenly and the skill does nothing. It was good that you couldn't accidentally use it then.
  6. So for everyone who doesn't have a personal boon bot glued to their bum it's worse now.
  7. Blurr counts as evasion and can trigger on evade effects and traits.
  8. If you're running Illusions Split Second still has the old cooldown. 🤫
  9. But it also reduces the duration. I think the duration reduction takes away more than the "improvement" adds to its effect.
  10. I am not good at maths but to me it seems taking Improved Alacrity is now making alacrity worse than not taking it?
  11. Sure, nerf boon Chrono if you really have to. But why destroy power Chrono?
  12. My WvW power roaming Chrono says thank you. I was just starting to have fun again.
  13. I like the changes to Inspiration. They make a lot of sense to me.
  14. That's because the best players look like memes when they are playing Mesmer these days.
  15. Personally I prefer the higher potential of Chronomancer and I don't like Inspiration but for a new roamer Inspiration might be the better choice. Blinding Dissipation is a must however. It has a higher skill ceiling but Fencer's Finesse is pretty useless. And I would probably drop focus in favour of pistol or torch, but that may be personal preference again. It depends on the situation I guess.
  16. In WvW roaming I have died to Mirage like 3 times in... well ever. It's not an issue.
  17. Why are you bugging the devs about that now? Wait for the next patch. The devs know what they are doing. Mesmer is in a pretty good spot right now anyway and doesn't need all this negativity. 😇
  18. Maybe when they build their PvE boss encounters they should remember that confusion exists and build their bosses around the abilities of the existing professions. Not come up with "cool" boss mechanics and then balance professions around those.
  19. @Panda.1967 did you really just ask me why it would be harder to balance a game when you add more build combinations and options? Are you working for Arenanet by any chance?
  20. It's a good change but I too think this should just be the default phantasm behavior.
  21. They are right, though. Dev time costs a lot of money and in this system the company is forced to maximize profit. It's hard to justify the 5+ extra full time balance devs the game would need when instead you can just let players spend resources making alts to play the flavour of the month builds. Sure you get a more healthy game long term, but all that matters is the next quarter.
  22. Yes put something useful on it or increase its damage massively but Virtuoso already has a lot of damage so it would be better to give it some utility. Maybe immob removal plus 7 seconds of swiftness, or some superspeed, projectile reflect, boon rip, blind, something like that. Anything.
  23. Ok so let's give all Mesmer builds an immob remove on F2 or something like that.
  24. I think you should stop adding stuff that makes it even harder to balance. Although at this point... what about in combat instant profession swapping. 😅
