Let me tell you a joke.

[Gogdarth.6741]

My favorite joke is them saying they wanted to buff greatsword and reworking it's trait into being worse than it was before while also removing F3 stun conversion and making this new, worse trait compete with Empowered Illusions. 10/10 would laugh again.

At least when spectral mastery was deleted some spectral skills got buffed.

Null field can be blocked. That's all you really need to know about the state of mesmers.

Every other boonstrip trait/skill cannot be blocked, yet here we are.

 

Just look at this:

https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Boon

Go to "skills that remove boons" section.

 

Click on every one, it has *unblockable* as a mechanic and those who don't remove aegis because aegis is a boon and are unblockable as well, even if they don't say it.

Every one except Null Field.

 

At leasts phatnasmal disenchanter is unblockable. It's useless, dies instantly, buggy, slow and doesn't work, but hey, it's unblockable!

Every single glamour skills had there CD shaved by 20% baseline when they removed the trait. On another hand some spectral skill got changes for which it's arguable whether they are nerf or buff while other were just left alone losing even the CD reduction when they removed _spectral mastery_ trait. I mean, yeah, a bunch of change can make people feel good when they delete a trait, but a baseline CD reduction for all skills is far from being bad either.

The trait used to grant resistance on every Glamour skill use, giving you an actual source for this boon. It also was in support traitline and aoe.

 

In short, rip boonsupport, enjoy your STM lobotomy lmao
