    Why? All those things are conditions and undesirable. What rationale behind wanting to self inflict a reduced less precise method of movement. One of gw2’s appeal is fast paced action style combat.

    It's better than what we have now. I dislike losing access to the weapons, utilities, and traits that I've chosen for every other area of the game.

    Sculpted cups are plenty cool. It's just the low-effort printed ones that are lame. Drinking out of Jormag's massive noggin would be amazing.

    Now that's what I'm talking about. :) Just checked out Shorts Mesmer. One video talked about the burst combo slowly and with enough detail that I could actually figure out what was going on (rather than just "this is the burst. Here it is slowed down. Got it? Good, moving on"), and another talking about baiting and probing defenses gave me information I'd never considered. Thanks a ton!

  4. I understand how the ability works, but I just don't know when is the best time to be using it. It has such a long cooldown that I always feel like I need to keep it for emergencies, and then it rarely gets used because of that. So far, the main thing I use it for is double-casting the healing Well. What do the rest of you do with it? Any game mode is fine; I want to eventually be capable with Mesmer everywhere, anyway.

  5. Macro sounds like the kinda thing that ArenaNet would frown upon. X) What kind of equipment should I use? I often see people mocking full Berserker in WvW, but that (and the equivalent all-out-damage stats for Condition builds) actually seems to be what the Metabattle builds suggest. Can I take defensive stuff, or is Mesmer all about confusing enemies with clones so you never get hit in the first place?

  6. (Elite specializations included.)

    Are there any WvW Mesmer players that put out videos showing good, not-cherry-picked fights? Stuff where they're fighting competent opponents, not preying on losers like myself? I figure I can watch these at 25% speed to maybe, hopefully, be able to register what in the blazes is going on.

    Further, are there any forms of practice anyone can recommend? Currently, I die before I can even comprehend what class is attacking me, which isn't terribly conducive to self-improvement.

    Thus far, I've been going sniper Soulbeast and hiding up on ledges so I can pick on people in relative safety. But I really like Mesmer's Portal for other stuff and I can't be as cheap with them.

  7. I just got around to actually doing the minigames myself, lastnight. It was so adorable. :D I'm doubly in favor of this, now. Daily achievement integration sounds like a good way to incorporate it. Perhaps some sort of minor boost to the mount after playing, as well? Increased endurance regeneration or higher damage on their dismount skill, perhaps. Hardly a necessity, but might be a draw.

  8. Yowza, this thread was from a long time ago. XD But, Obstructed is certainly still a problem.Dolyaks may be part of it, but definitely not the only part. I get Obstructed all the time when going for my first shot on a camp. Unless, perhaps, the corpse-obstacle lasts for an exceptionally long time? It could be that enemies killed 20 minutes prior are blocking shots, I suppose.

    This here is Tulbokz Hopeforge.

    Are those glowing yellow and red syringes part of your gloves?? What are they called? :hushed:

    That's the skin applied to Engineers using the Med Kit, actually. Not something that can be grabbed up for general use, I'm afraid. :(

    There's clearly nothing in the way of my shot. This happens ALL the time on perfectly level ground, too. I know it's hardly an easy fix, but can the Obstructed system in general get looked at at some point so that this can stop happening? It's especially frustrating when I try to shoot an enemy player that's close enough for Gazelle-Soulbeast's Kick to lose the out-of-range red bar. HOW IN THE WORLD is THAT Obstructed?

  11. I want Bubbles to come into play as soon as possible, not for the sake of curiosity regarding the lore, but so that it can bring about an overhaul for the awful underwater combat system.

    Right now, being underwater is frustrating and tedious, losing your entire character build because your options become so severely limited as a result of having only 2 weapons and a chunk of your Utilities disabled.

    Honestly, just allow me to toggle to a low-gravity land mode where I sink to the bottom and have all my skills, and I'll be happier than I am now. As it stands, I'll run around a lake before I run through it. Skimmer has been a godsend, but doesn't help when you're forced into the water.

  12. I don't particularly mind a random unlock item for those willing to gamble at it or just as a roundabout way to get all of them more cheaply. But there needs to be a guaranteed option, as well. 600-800 for a specific mount skin, for example. 2000 for a bundle of five, maybe...? But that's the same price as five randoms skins, so that may not work out entirely. Either a higher bundle price, or a lower random price, for that.

Played through The Departure twice in the past hour or so, both times it disconnects when talking to Joko AFTER defeating the Eater of Souls. I'm on a cliffhanger here! Please fix ASAP, thanks! The last thing in the conversation thread before the game crashes is my character saying (SPOILER!!!)....."I need your army, but I don't need you". I have not gotten past this part yet.

    I've not had the problem, but my friend did. It disconnected him twice at this same point, give or take 10 seconds. It worked after he left the party we were in. Not sure if that's just a coincidence, or if being in a party had anything to do with it.
