AnimatedWolf.9213 Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Running around on my condi Mirage, staff allows for amazing Open World soloing (most of what I spend my time doing). Sure, the DPS is much, much lower than most other weapons but that doesn't matter all too much when I can have a really relaxing near-guarantee for all solo content.

To get a little nit picky, it'd be 5 seconds from 4, and a 5 second field that would be moved out of. That is max of 10 seconds and probably closer to 6 as soon as an enemy dodges out of chaos field.

That is like talking about warrior LB and saying you should balance it based on blasting might... Yes, it is beneficial, but staff combo, especially if kiting, is not highly probable.

Dreamatics.4987 Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 No offense but if you think staff on mesmer is bad your playing it wrong i have never had any issues with it granted i mostly used in pvp like a year ago and only recently started using it again but i see nothing wrong with it. i have always seen it as a utiilty kit not a kill everything stick of doom that you clearly want it to be [i only read your op im lazy ... next] chaos storm/chaos armor and phase retreat are amazing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they fixed the Phantasm to be utility or condi, I'd be fine. I still thing 4 and 5 need a reduction for what they are, but I can live with them. 3 is just out of place altogether.
