Mesmer will never be the class we want

Recommended Posts

Any amount of positivity around Mesmer is hampered by a previous versions of the class. The second dodge probably won't come back in any meaningful way to Mirage, boon support will forever be split for Chronomancer. DPS for any high preforming build much like Elementalist will forever be nerfed. 

My point is talking about Mesmer anywhere outside reddit is a waste of time. We can't really control the way they balance the class at all.

Didn’t you state you stopped playing Mesmer in another thread?

How can you claim to know, what I want my mesmer to be?

In fact I am quite happy with my virtuoso. It's the first time I like Mesmer 🙂

 Just the one espec or the whole profession, core and all three especs??

That's a very high bar to set. I think Engie is the only one that comes even close for me. I've enjoyed all three elite specs in various ways. But even with Engie, please don't make me play core. C(h)ore Engie was what I had to endure to get to the rest.

As for Mesmer, I enjoyed my Core Mesmer before there were any especs, and really love my Mirage. My attempts at Chronomance always felt clunky, and Pink Dagger Not-Mesmer Virtuoso will never feel like a Mesmer to me, though I may learn to like it as some sort of weird second cousin, once-removed from one of my favorite professions in the game.

Wait, could you please explain once again, what makes reddit special in regards of talking about mesmer? Genuinely curious.

Its reported that they look at the reddit and not their own forums. This may have changed since I do see more moderation here in recent months. I think its more that the Dev engage reddit more on a personal level.

I'm glad I'm getting push back, since I agree with you. I'm really addressing all the negative threads about nerfs. I agree with the factual side to the argument but I don't agree with being so negative around Mesmer nerfs.

Yup I have stopped playing it recently. It doesn't mean I cant play it, I'm having a break.

We probably should all do that otherwise we get to bitter about class changes.
