The balance for mesmer is 100% atrocious. I mean wtf is the point of desperate Decoy? You get stealth! Cool. no blind, no evade nothing. Damn near every other class has somehting that gives them at least 1 lifesaver on passive traits, we get a stealth. At least put a blind or stun break on it. Hell its not even worth running, becasue any player that is in melee mode will continue swinging as soon as you hit stealth, or any condi on you that bombs you will just continue ticking, or if your stunned, it doesnt matter becasue you will still be cc'ed by the time the stealth ends. Not to mention every other class has reveals on it which makes it a pointless skill. Like at least make it work like Decoy maybe? idk im toxic AF becasue they made my class unplayable in pvp. Now im left roaming in WVW in full glass cannon setup, running 3 stealth skills on Core mesmer with every single point speced into damage, because without that kitten does no damage. Stealth up, try an nuke, fail 90% of the time because every ranger runs lesser stone signet passive, every warrior runs the invulnerable pasive (forget the name) thiefs all run free dodge passive, and so you hvae to tp and run away and try again once cooldowns are up. Theres no point in trying to take straight fights in pvp as a mesmer. All your burst is loaded into greatsword spike damge, and its the easiest thing to play against as long as you dont blow cooldowns. Meanwhile most other classes can nuke and sustain through that shit no problem. And no, im not crying because "get Gudt". I know im not a top player, but for the love of god why are we forced to play extra hard for mediocre results. A braineded Condi mirage, or a brainded warrior can still output Decent damage and sustain, and while I could beat such players in duels as mesmer I have to work retardedly hard to get the same results. Versus me just swapping off my main to a ranger and feeling borderline unbeatable to the average joe running around. PS: Give us a power Dual Dagger Mesmer Elite spec next. get rid of clone all together and make daggers a mid range power damge tree.
