Archivist.8109 Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 GUYS! I wanna make a mesmer, now that I'm more familiar with the game, but I can't decide on a race! Give me your suggestions and reasoning! <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaboBabo.3581 Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 gotta go deep for this.Yoda, from Star Wars is in fact a very old Asurian Mesmer Master. In reality he isn't using the force , but his illusions are invisible. So There is only one true Mesmer Race;) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercurias.1826 Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Make it a character you won't mind seeing four of. I picked a Sylvari because their funky colors and glow are fun. Racial skill-wise, I'd say that Asura and Humans probably have the best Synergy, but racial skills are typically unimpressive as a whole. Lore-wise, any race can be a Mesmer. Charr might be less common, as they have a low-key cultural bias against magic, but it's still all good. Humans and Asura may be more common, as they tend to be more strongly Magic-oriented. If you want to laugh, an Asura. They have well done animations. Lots of personality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roda.7468 Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Make one of each race that you're thinking of playing and then compare their looks to each other. '3' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bart.3687 Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Asura! They are fancy and unpredictable. You'd think that someone so small couldn't be dangerous. But it's wrong.In time, everyone will bow before the mighty Asura, bwahaha! :naughty: EDIT: Well, only quaggans could be better than asura, but they are, sadly, unplayble.Gotta live with it, i guess.

Arshay Duskbrow.1306 Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 More than any other profession, Mesmers are the quintessentially human profession. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really is a lore thing. Most major Mesmers are humans ie Anise, Jenah, White Mantle Baddies. I haven't heard of any major Mesmer that belongs to other races. They exist but they're not as common as humans lore wise. Lyssa also is celebrated among the human gods but they do have a god that represents each proffesion.

AstralDusk.1670 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 I would say asura, unless you're using greatsword. They don't do that cool 'levitating sword' animation during the autoattack that other races do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rennie.6750 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Norn of course! It's probably the least fitting race lore-wise so it's rather funny. Also Norn mesmers are a rarity. The Norn storyline is also quite nice if you haven't experienced it so far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
