Probably using bloodlust on sword ? instead of blood, pretty damn good or am i wrong ?. i was trying endurance on staff for making more clones while i dodge almost nonstop which i can more mindwrack the enemy. whats are your thoughts ? or should i put bloodlust on staff aswell and sword+pistol ?. btw loving your vids man , trying to learn as much as possible. >huge fan of naruto aswell :DD

nice burst!

first burst was wierd.... that 66xx damage where does it come from? it pops up INSTANTLY after you hit blurred frenzy. one big number. Have not seen it in the rest of the video again. normaly blurred frenzy hits multiple times. but whatever, nice shiny numbers

edit.: have you tried fire and air rune on sword/pistol? both can proc with one blurred frenzy for 1k-1.4k each.
perhaps bloodlust on staff to get 250 extra power, then switching to sword/pistol with air/fire runes? ^^

[ChillisAchillis]

I was actually wondering if you're still using the Scholar runes on your armor and if its still viable ?

[Winterfell]

@ Grimmson not the 66xx but at 05:26 for example, 5500 BF, still nice. And some other times.. but need to slow it or rewind it

I use Bloodlust on the staff, I kill them most of the time with sword/pistol. But when stomping or fishing Im trying to swap it for the stacks.
Battle on sword and 5% extra dmg on pistol, I used blood on it. But watched videos, it only occurs once every 10 secs for 500 health, isnt worth it for me ^^

How the heck you get so much from shatters?  Is that crits on all of them too, with all the bonus traits or something?  Nice!

I'm fearful of all the posts saying mesmers can pull this out of a hat at any time though.

Not sure about the crits, pls watch 8:50 I cant tell for sure if its 4k for each shatter, or something else..but cant think about what else?! He dont got a pet or anything else, so it must be shatter?????

Edit: Nvm hehe I saw the Rock Dog! Mystery Solved!

Thnx, this is what im running now:

http://gw2skills.net...GbNuak1sEZAxuAA

Cant find something better ^^ Retaliation when block, I dont block alot (only with staff, or in group fights with the guardian), fury for clones, I just shatter them, only trait thats interesting is cloak at 25%. But than I chose pistol range and cd, ppl tend to ran away or blink away ^^ When pistol range is increased its better.

[osicat]

Same shatter build, I pick staff for 1 vs 1. Gsword, just because im bored playing with staff all the time

Its doable, knockback, n2, n3 ,4 if its still not up and switch and burst. But its alot easyer with staff! Im also feeling weak with gsword, but it makes it a challenge ^^ Its fun for groupfights! beserker does some nice aoe, time warp with n1 gsword ^^ also fun!

I've been running a shatter build based on power + GS and gotta say it works damn well.

Granted you ARE losing out on some defensive options, but you're not totally exposed as GS #5 can be quite productive once you learn the timing and know how to avoid deadzoning yourself.

GS has the same clone/phantasm generation as staff but you get lots more damage from the actual weapon. #1 and #3's buffs are quite significant and GS is easily our highest sustained dps weapon with near on par burst to a blurred frenzy. On a fellow squishy target one auto attack usually ends up doing 2.5-3k dmg depending on crits, 2k with zero crits. #2 and #3 hit as hard as a full #1 round and they're easy to combo.

I prefer this build because it doesn't leave much up to chance and deals with bunker builds very well i've found.

http://gw2skills.net...noqxUjoGbNuak1A

By all means pick at this build and if you find something better do share . But this is what i've come to find agreeable with my playstyle. Only trouble i have is bleed thieves i don't successfully knock away so they stop deathblossoming me and condition necros/rangers. Its not a 100% guaranteed win for them but as opposed to stalling in a fight vs a power or tank build their damage goes through all our tricks.

[Winterfell]

Staff all the way, gsword cant replace staff.. n2 is just a must ^^ Thief balasik venom, staff n2 with 8 sec cd.. Warr stun, guardian chains, etc etc ^^ Sure you got some utitlys that also breaks it but 8 sec for staff. ^^

[Mixology]

I'm a huge fan of the greatsword - much higher dps, good burst.

Also, I don't understand PvP builds that don't get Illusionary membrane.  As soon as someone attacks you, you automatically get regen (through the first trait in the toughness tree) which through Illusionary membrane automatically gives you protection.  Also, in WvW, you frequently are given regen which always gives you protection.  You can also trait so that your  Illusions give you regen, although my experience with this is that the trait is buggy, so personally I don't take the regen trait.

Edit:  blink is a reliable replacement for staff n2, albeit on a higher cd.  if they aren't dead after you've blinked once already, you are doing something wrong.

[Touche]

I see a lot of notable Mesmers using this build. Would you swap out 10 points from dueling to chaos for competitive pvp? Or pick up some toughness/vitality? I just find myself way to squishy in larger encounters and if a good condition ranger or necro hit me before I reach a point I usually end up losing the exchange.

Edited by Touche, 03 November 2012 - 06:22 PM.

[osicat]

If you mean the 10-30-0-0-30 build Touche Yes its possible, you might even be better go full out, drop 10 in 1st 2 and go 0-20-20-0-0-30, it still deal a punch, it give the boons and protection Mix talk about but keep the shatter defensive/offensive part. Also it give less cd on staff so chaos storm get more frequent as will staff 2 and chaos armour, al wery strong offensive/defensive abilitys.

I wont tell anyone how to play, can just share what I feel working and give tipps.

[Winterfell]

Yehhh!! I like your WvW videos Oscicat!

I sometimes play WvW on mine lvl 68 mesmer

I tried almost all builds, starting with the first beta in april. And this is the build for me that I love the most ^^

No doubt.  I personally prefer condition mesmerized but I found the inability to deal with necros frustrating. I tried out all of the builds you mentioned.  I like running 10 30 0 0 30 with a GS and 0 30 20 0 30 with a staff. Still jumping around builds. Can't seem to stick to one haha.

And winter could you post the guardian video without that song? Can't watch it in the US.
