That they take Mirage with Portal over Core is most likely only because of the sword mobility. Mobility is key for roaming builds in coordinated teams. In particular when running nerfed Portal. Coremes would probably have more impact in fights (and ofc in duels which are not relevant for a raoming build), in terms of dmg, but cannot compete in terms of rotational mobility.

(mean just with this they should have win vs the full tank french worms team because of portal high pressure spike on point.).Now looking at two days ago regular At matchs :@viquing.8254 said:On a side note, when I look at misha gameplay (current 1st EU, best mesmer in this game), and to give you an idea of how mesmer role evoluate :https://www.twitch.tv/videos/576743694?t=01h50m14sLook also at the 3 next matchs.What I see is that : He has regulary the most dead in his team.He spend most of his time with < 50% hp.80% of the time, he is running from point to point dropping portal.He spam evade to mobility and condiclear, and sustain only with weapon and utility.He can't 1v1 anything.He die to random aoe in teamfight.It should be worst if he didn't get some vigor from teamate.I will not deny that it's viable but give people time to learn to eat this. There were also plethora of teams who should get a chance of countering it who get ejected from mAt thanks to swiss shadow rules.You know, your entire post basically sounds to me like Mesmer is a lot like thief now. Because that entire list describes thief to a T. Hell, Thief even has portal now. Also, dont know if we saw the same games, but its Firebrand that was dead the most. Because he is focused.

RedAvenged.5217 Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 I’ll admit Mirage builds actually do really good burst at time and can allow for high lvl play with portal etc but with 1 dodge is pretty ez to counter. I see some going the signet trait which give distortions on signet use but this is so ez to predict and doesn’t seem to get high value against anyone paying attention. Just seems to under perform on average though mirages is workable- especially when they are good, but meta isn’t always what 1/10000 could play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thief portal is good, you heard it here first.Not really? Noone wouldve said Mesmer Portal is bad, only that Mesmer might not want to use it. Or perhaps that its not good outside of coordinated play (that much is true). But bad? Hardly. Anyway, its so limited in PvP that its really no good. I get why they limited it, but it kinda makes the skill pointless. But then again, its quite nice in WvW, sooo. But yeah, in PvP it doesnt really do enough, shuffling over one person once, with no chance of return, is just too narrow of a proposition, and usually the thief will use it themselves, and given how fast thief moves accross the map? Rather pointless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rn it’s pretty meh, I’d say it’s the best option iff your Da dp DrD which still is less consistent than Sa dp DrD because your game play is kind of one sided, where you just portal to decap and rotate back to team fights. Where as Sa dp has all the benefits and isn’t forced to 1 sided game play ie. Sa dp is just more consistent and doesn’t need portal whereas Da dp would and be less consistent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
