Axl.8924 Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 I voted because they have possibly 1 viable spec out of 3 and not sure how good it really is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Downstate.4697 Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 I voted ele though mesmer has the least amount of viable builds. My vote is biased because I hate weaver and I'm stuck playing support tempest. Core ele deserves a better damage build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axl.8924 Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 I don't know how viable ranger is now but when I was doing max damage I was doing around 3-4k crits maybe 6k crits maybe top.This was before worldly impact and maul were nerfed, so now they do even less. Not sure how good it is currently but 3-4k kinda sucks for a hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying i know for certain how scourge is in SPVP but it got hit kitten hard in the past.Core especially can do very well in this meta because of low dmg environment and unnerfed sustain.

Avatar.3568 Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 I feel sometimes pretty useless, but it's probably because I am a bad player idkGood sustain and higher spikes but no real consistency in dmg over time. (ranger) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khalisto.5780 Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 i voted ele but, it's core ele, core engi, maybe warrior, chrono and probably druidI feel all other specs are ok with fb, core necro and condi herald overperfoming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apharma.3741 Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 The state of mesmer at the moment is an absolute mess, it really needs some trait reworks and optimising so that it's got clear purposes and uses without being a budget version of something else or an overpowered inescapable juggernaut of low skill clutter spam.

Zephoid.4263 Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 Mes is a mess. Its damage is so front loaded that its OHKs, condi burst, or nothing. Its probably going to take a lot to put it into a state where it isn't broken and isn't useless. Chrono just needs help in all forms.War probably needs some damage buffs. I don't play war, but i've seen enough 1v1 war fights last forever lately that its kind of sad. However i would like to see the sheer quantity of cc they can bring toned down in compensation. Getting stun locked by ~6ccs from a single war isn't fun. that no damage is done is the saving grace, but its still not enjoyable gameplay.Ele has had pseudo bunker builds for a long while, but i've always felt they were sub-par to scrapper or war. More evades, less of everything else. Burn ele was cute pre-nerf, not competitive now. Esp not with all the condi builds running around. Probably should get a similar treatment as war, where some of the ccs are nerfed in compesation for damage on other effects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's because engi has access to consistent water fields and combo blast with which it can raise his sustain pretty high while doing above average dmg thx to might stacking, has access to long stealth and above average traitlines, both scrapper and holo see play in wvw/pvp...yup what not to desire about engi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean no other ambush skill is able to do as many condis as mirage scepter/staff. Chronophantasma propably got gs left only. There aren't a lot of phantasms that you can exploit with this trait. That's why a lot of mesmer players are advocating for giving mirage its dodge back in return for a flat condi dmg nerf on its spec. Now I haven't played chrono, but heard it is no longer viable, because of the phantasm change and other nerfs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leonidrex.5649 Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 ill give you guys food for thought.IF a class can be played both core and 2 elite specs, its propably fucking broken.You dont get to have both especs and core to be viable without having broken skills to fall back on, one will always be better.
