  1. It's funny because it was the case back in 2020. GW2 was a FPS. Then they nerf damage (february 2020 ?). Then plethora of people said tank meta isn't fun, then here we are today 😄. Bis repetitae.
  2. Ofc old mirage in the current situation where everyone was nerfed will be op. But considering the vigor multiple removal, the multiples ambushes nerf, same for CD, traits (all because 2 evades and CC while evading on the past.). Even by just bringing back 2 evade it will not overperform.
  3. Nop, 1 over 50 isn't balanced. Moreover if you look at old vids, even him has to give up points and go out of combat to resustain versus the amount of 3 on 1 skills from other classes (hello unblocable damage on evade and long hard CC with 5k+ damage packaed in.).
  4. Nop they (other classes.) don't dodge, they use either stab/aegis or breakstunt/teleport or evade/blocks packages on weapons skills, like every meta builds does for ages. Mean which meta classes can't evade cc/burst ? Even necro can do it currently. One day it will be good if people get that when mirage burn evade defensivly, they can't use it offensivly. Which is even more true because condi clone auto passive when evading isn't a thing anymore. Putting appart it's less mobile and has higher(unreliable.) burst setup, yeah. Are you talking about classes played in EU top 50 ? If so, it didn't concern mirage.
  5. Dunno what there are doing. Maybe they aren't used in PvE while being bests in PvP ? And what about @apharma.3741 list. Moreover about 2nd dodge...
  6. There is a difference between an absolute monster and something viable enough to be on mAt. Like when you have 30% of the same class in top 100... I already saw mAt vids and top100 ladder aren't supposed to be random plat. Mean I'm lmao when someone snobish 2 posts ago ask me to do what I already do for ages : Analysis on matches what I can improve and so one. Mean it's been 8 years than despite being noob I'm around plat2/3 when playing meta. I down plat1 in periods when playing funny exotics builds. Glad someone see the collaterals impacts on portal buff back and power creep mobility.
  7. Based on no objective metrics yeah continue spreading false fact in forums.
  8. There is 2 metrics : mAt and ladder. And I disagree reading mesmer is monster looking at thoses. (Just for you to know, I regulary fight with/versus people in ladder in my ranked games.) The same as I disagree about more movement powercreep instead of tunning down thoses who already overperfom.
  9. @Dr Meta.3158 : She didn't main mesmer anymore like misha did afaik. You know that vids are montage who picked what the author want to show you ? I already saw jazz vids, I won't deny she sometimes play "fun" rupt build very well which I already debate about the viability with her. And no, there is only 3/4 mesmer of her caliber which didn't look high IMO and they didn't main mesmers anymore. You are the only one insluting mesmer players IMO.
  10. I already do papercraft in which with a 100% knowledge on every classes skills and with a 0.25 sec reaction time you can win everything. This is the theory. Now in reality, bests mesmers mains stopped playing or maining mesmer. If I was stucked on old naive ideas I would quit mesmer a long time ago. Now fact is that as long as no one can demonstrate how truly monstrous mesmer can be, it don't exist.
  11. If even the bests players didn"t understand this, where are we going... Not really. I'm sad that portal was nerfed BUT it shut the mesmer can't be good because of portal argument. And it more other classes need mobility nerf than mesmer need a up (which end the same without powercreep.).
  12. Phantasmal defender : channel a pulsing barrier on the mesmer who pulse heal on allies surrounding the mes 180 range for 3 sec. Phantasmal disenchanter : channel a pulsing condiclear on the mesmer who pulse boon clear on ennemies surrounding the mes on a 180 range for 3 sec.
  13. Their old concept made it usefull while not being op. Currently they can't be good because : - They have only one attack so the attack has to be strong or the cd low. - Chronophantasma kitten who double attacks. So we end with 2 dead utility slots. There is 2 options IMO : - Remove chronophantasma to a phantasm trigger some actions from mesmer or heal you or your allies or whatever. Or - Give some effects triggered by the mesmer similar to "Fire multiple crippling bullets at your target" from https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Phantasmal_Duelist which will not be triggered twice by chronophantasma. or "Throw an illusionary greatsword at your foe" from https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Phantasmal_Berserker
  14. Last time I checked there were only a few chrono at the end. Btw I'm not saying virtuoso is bad and can never be played (after 3 waves of buff.). I argue that it's wasn't designed for PvP looking at CD, tools, modility, team options etc. I ask for a spec without illusions since day one. I'm just constating that the spec started getting played after the mass up survival options because the core design didn't permit to perform. Like compare dagger to every other meta weapons, it only does damage ! (and it's not even that hudge.) Because no mesmer during 3 years is overperformed.🤣 Cmon apart during chrono 1 and 2 who didn't dure last, mesmer were average or absent from meta. Show me you top 10 screenshot please. There were multiples ladder and mAt analysis who can prove you live in a prettyfull unicorn's world. For real.
  15. To be fair, it's boderline unkillable only if you stand melee on his AOE while rollfacing when the mesmer is in Chaos armor. Which indeed work well in the game mode. As long as your opponent bring few unblocable, hit from range and/or if you face dedicated condi builds, with the "meta" version, you can't facetank on point. Let weapons be hybrid. Even scepter make sense in few direct damage builds. Currently, mesmer didn't have weapons options for condi builds. if you remove condi from staff, scepter will be even more mandatory as it is now. Only doing damage by shatter on condi builds is too much limitated IMO. They tried putting pistol as an alternative to torch but considering the current state, it don't conclude. I mean mesmer dedesparatly need long telegraphied condi output on weapon (not applied by illusions.). Only scepter 3 can fill this role currently considering axe 3 hit only 1 over 3 on moving targets. Chaos storm on heal is used on build who didn't have staff to aoe CC/combo...( like on axe mirage.).
  16. Pretty much this. Even when moad, the mesmer will burst with his shatter after which is easy to dodge. The only way moa can hurt is if you are in the middle of Legacy of the Foefire with no LoS possible which you shouldn't if you know the opponent have moa. My advice is fight near a pillar and run around when moad. Mean it's a skill that has a high chance to fail thanks to random aegis/blind proc and even when it hit, the dodges and https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Flee_(Moa_Morph) are generaly enough to survive. Now if you face a coordinated team who time their CC on a MOA , your team is supposed to support you equally to counter them.
  17. You know if mesmer was deleted I will just rollface PvP on other classes more serenely 😁
  18. Bring back Mantra of Recovery on 10 sec CD in PvP please, thanks.
  19. It's normal balance yeah, look at every classes, they all have utility they take depending on the situation. Mean I don't meet a full signet guard or a full wells necro everyday for example 😛
  20. Even without CI. Misha used it in his mAt condi build. Jazz used it in her multiples burst / cc build. I used it in PvP power and condi builds to plat3. IMO it wasn't memes at all. I even link old vids on the thread about the patch.
  21. I disagree, MoD was used in most power builds, even on few condi builds.
  22. Replying two pages ago : Sorry guys but when I look at some classes who have easy access to breakstunt and/or stab, dodging while CCed didn't seems OP at all. Mean example like : "you get hit by a hard to hit skills and ho you evade while cced" can be applyied to every meta build with 15 sec cd breakstunt, 75% stab uptime between block/evade skills and so on. It's like when they normalize mesmer scepter output to be on par with necro axe with same gear : 3 pages of whines then mesmer scepter came back to only a small percentage of what other similar skills does at equivalent gear. Fact is that most meta classes, currently and in the past, didn't need mirage evade to be nearly immune to CC. So complaints put in perspective look kinda poor IMO.
