No I'm saying the whole class needs reworking from core to elites in terms of class mechanic and skills with a clear design philosophy and purpose as I outlined above even if not everyone agrees on the principles. Illusions have never been fun to play with on the mesmer side and it's becoming very apparent that the attention span and capacity to learn of the current GW2 playerbase is rapidly dipping below secondary education so it should be reworked.As I said "probalby will never happen", but good luck convincing them

Spammable = 5 initiative, + huge aftercasts where you nor evading, nor hard CCing.5 initiative = 1/3 of shared cooldown ability pool. WOOOO SPAMMABLE!Its 900 range no LoS shadowstep through walls and elevations without a cooldown and thief initiative regain 1 per second, pretty much spammable WOOOOO.Doesnt adress the rest, I take it as you agree with me :)

And again, it's just like all other projectiles in the game.Post a proof that all projectiles has 2000 range or projectiles travel bonus 500 range upon reaching its maximum range, can you ? All arching projectiles in this game go further than the stated range. Ranger's longbow goes the furthest because it has the furthest baseline range too. Point being that it isn't exclusive to ranger, but everyone words it as if this is some unique ranger bug.Not even single projectile in this game doesnt have 500 bonus range and barely noticable, it noticable at all. They dont even track you at that range, meanwhile ranger LB does. Not even a single weapon has that absurd range(2000 rofl) and damage.I wouldnt even bat an eye if they hard cap every weapon at stated range.

Thief players defend braindead builds, more news at 11. Not being able to cleanse 5 condis being immobilized 3-4 times is l2p issue, sure :joy:News at 11 a mirage player (of all classes ?) complaing about sw2.Smells like a few logical fallacies.Since you arent smartest thief main, let me educate you, sword2 does the same as CI did for condi mirage and claimed to be a degenerate build, condi daredevil does it at will and IT IS a degenere build. (you even said yourself about DA condi trait on top xD)Meanwhile mirages are stealth bursting people to 0 in a literal secIs that some kind of "whataboutism" ? I'm not really expert in logical fallacies tbh. But okay, thief easly does the same, how does it related to condi daredevil?

Most of ppl who’ve been top 100 before can solo q and get there especially half way through the season. Like I literally didn’t duo once and am top 25 with like low plat2. If I want end of season top 25-100 I’ll prolly need to duo q a little to get plat3 but still most of the season would be solo q.Soloq placements went 6-4 into 1480 rating and losing twice more points than I gain, so basically stuck in this trashcan while usually I had 1750 rating (but didnt finish season as I cant force myself to play more than 50-60 games). Soloq is pure hell if you are stuck on low rating (oh ye,I dont play meta builds and didnt play it before). You can win 1x2 but that wouldnt matter because some bunker troll 3 ppl on your close and their IQ is that low to just leave him 1x1 someone and lose the map anyway I think since ppl duo q now placements require better ratio. I placed 8-2 on core thief thinking good enough and was shocked to get 1599 since that’s usually close to plat3 for me. But I’ve just been playing condi thief and 1vx on far and this gives me free wins 80% of the time so I climbed ez.Condi drd, I bet if Id play that braindead build I wouldnt have any issues with my placements/games too xD

You could apply the same thing you said to chrono, mirage, scourge, or firebrand nerfs. Still doesn't make it less cherry-picking or ignorance.Lost case... byebye

But have you tried running cleanse though?Of course not, who need cleanses when you face 1-2 condi daredevils /sI cant afford taking every single cleanse and dedicated traitline just because a single class (as I said there could be 1 or 2, vs 2 no amount of cleanses is going to save me) in enemy team (that could be staff or d/p thieves actually whine they are weak and have no diversity, heh).How on earth I'm even supposed to cleanse 5-6 condis each time he jumps on me with an immobilize? How someone can even defend this brain dead gameplay as SW2,dodge?

https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/discussion/85255/yet-another-mirage-thread#latest^my thread about condi mirage and suggestion to "nurf" it

I still want to see IH damage from the clones shifted to the mesmer, mesmer ambush does laughable damage but with bunch of clones its becomes too much. Consider changing on the ambush skills I mentioned.

Everything except Impact Savant change looks ridiculous.LEAVE ENGI AS IT IS NOW. PLEASE. Focus on scourge. Engi is nerfed enough.Thank you.Dont nerf busted holo, leave it as it is, year ago it was nerfed, no more plx. - Ridiculous

Depends on their build. Most ppl take pistol over torch, but signet fixes 2s and some good mirages take mass for the team utility. I'm a p2 mesmer main, I am perfectly aware of the pvp meta.Havent seen even one "good" mirage that take MI over jaunt in this condi fiesta, wouldnt do that as well, also holo with passive reveal, meh It's more common in ATs, but you only see it with high rated mirages anyway.Whatever you say, never seen these "high rated MI mirages" ever but okay :)

Chaotic Interruption: This trait has been re-worked and now reduces the cooldown of one of your weapon abilities by 5 seconds when you interrupt a foe. As per the potential balance patch thread posted by an Anet employee https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/discussion/85188/potential-future-balance-changes Potentially pretty good but not as busted as the old CI. Imagine a 5 second reduction on blurred frenzy or if there's no ICD chaos storm might just refresh itself.Wow, imagine BF being actually good and not self root no damage skill... wait, chaos with a SWORD? YoloI'm confused ... as mes main I cant imagine this tait even remotely being good, everyone would just get BD for consistency I dunno could be pretty good with no ICD. As for sword with chaos, when Chrono was a real class Chronotank used sword with chaos.Chrono is dead and not coming back, seems to be abandoned forever. Chrono bunker used sword only during HoT if I remember right and BF wasnt trash as it is now.If this trait would give boons on interrupt like old one, I would think about theorycrafting with it, but without any other benefits, its pretty garbage trait imo. We will see soon tm.
