apharma.3741 Posted February 11, 2019 Author Share Posted February 11, 2019 Well it's a tongue in cheek post where you get to make fun of the silly nerfs likely to come that won't actually fix anything while nerfing core mesmer and aspects that aren't competitive on anything else into the floor.Also Arcane thievery nerf, how many people know the skill still doesn't do what it's supposed to half the time?

Only Even.6193 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 So... Only nerfs ? But no improvements/changes gameplay-synergy wise ?Nothing will change if it happens, except mirage (potentially mesmer overall) will be trash the day they found out what is the real problem, because of all the unecessary damages and ICD nerfs done in the past.. =/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nepster.4275 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Signet of Inspiration: Adds 10 seconds to all boons on the player.No longer affects other players, only caster.Reason why: Because mesmer is getting changed since the launch of PoF and we do not want to break this very logical chain!

LaGranse.8652 Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 All mesmers I see (I don't PvE so not there) has the sigil of midnight, even powe builds. Would be nice with a nerf to the sigil or buff to the decoy skill so it is a choice and not a nobrainer like today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Me Games Ma.8426 Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 What I really hope for are weapon trait changes. One by one the other classes are getting the same treatment:Weapon traits do something, and that something is doubled when you use the weapon in question. I hope that mesmer gets this as well.

Lincolnbeard.1735 Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 IH - clones no longer have mirage cloak when you dodge. ICD 10sec.Deceptive evasion - when you dodge while having one clone up, you create a clone.IA - range reduced to 450, no longer give access to mirage cloak.Phantasmal Warder - number of hits reduced to 6x (too strong on USA!)Mirage cloak - when you dodge while cc'ed you get 3sec exhaustion. (too much of a hassle to remove the ability to dodge while cc'ed)Imagined Burden - damage reduced: 50%Mental Anguish - damage reduced to 5% and 10% vs inactivityEdit: Clones hp reduced by 50% (thanks for the idea monkeygeous - "why the clones have so much health it's ridiculous") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
