To have inspi you give up a lot of damage. If you give up duel you either lose clone generation or confusion burst. If you give up illusion you give up cry of pain, maim and increased condi damage. So with the build they're talking about you end up with jaunt and torch 4 as your only condi removals, considering jaunt is used as mobility and attaking too (if self-deception is traited) and torch 4 is used to burst, condi removal is really low.

Mirage doesn't. It has one weakness: A better mirage player in enemy team xD Its really funny. Scourge isn't allowed to do 3 conditions with F1. 1 burning, 1torment, 1 cripple Now we can add 1 vulnerability and 1corrupted boon. But mesmer is allowed to do like: 10stacks burning, 10 stacks confusion, 10 stacks torment and bleed and blind and like all the conditions available in an instant. So that if you move, you die to torment, if you try to condicleanses you take insane amounts of confusion damage and have to hope, that confusion get actually cleansed, else it will hurt even more. This is nuts! And on top of that, it's one of the most mobile classes in the game, maybe even the one with the best mobility and gets invulnerability and invisibility on top of that, as well as blocks, target breaking, evades....

Ok. Well, I will be very happy to change this instant to real 10+ instant damage with better aoe on little CD. > This is nuts!

Less and less builds use sword. Apart necro, other meta builds are as mobile as mesmer, even more for certains. (get out of an aoe with a 450 jaunt != run in another point in few seconds. And portal and blink are certainly powerful but when you compare with perma swiftness class (which concretly mean that you can't melee thoses specs because they run away from melee range just by running.), who have gap closer or target teleport, the best mobility is questionable.)

xp eke xp.6724 Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Can we just get a weekly pvp lesson "who to pvp" on all important points? Its kinda pointless, if the basic knowledge about a game mode is soo huge different. I speak about players pushing buttons without knowing if it helps to reach the goal and this on p3+ minimal 6 of 10 players each round. On p3-p2 its nearly 10 of 10. I tested some seasons if some players can dodge oneshot builds ( before hot rifle warrior, before pof with berserk rifle warrior and deadeye after). And its cruel: even if i play bersek warrior on actually seasons, most players at p3 not even try to dodge f1 (ok it's not more a oneshott), doesn't matter if 1v1 or other fights. And i choosed also to only hit if they can dodge or avoid it... Somehow on p2-1 they managed to dodge a core f1 rifle (without quickness). No wonder deadeye got nerfed on rifle 3 xD What i want to tell with that: even on fair* fights most players don't even learned that after getting the second time hurted badly to change the own playstile. * I managed to dont kitte or do other smart actions if i feel im too strong with that against any player...

xp eke xp.6724 Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 Helseth was one of the first players that show what potential the mesmer has. Imo most players wouldn't now how important portal is without him. If we look at other pro players we will see the main problem: a small viewer base -> so most players don't learn from them and get frustrated by some matchups or fighting some classes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RisenHowl.2419 Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 Mesmer has been meta in every game mode since hot came out lmao. And for the heroes claiming just cleanse, no class has as much condi removal as mes has application. Mirage can cc/blind/invuln chain long enough to kill anyone 1v1, and when they run out of offensive CDs, can stealth disengage at will to try again in 5s.

Nope, during HoT in PvP, it was only meta in teamQ because portal and SoH were usefull in coordinated team fight (to a lesser extent in duoQ) but most of HoT seasons it was more than under-represented in leaderboard because hard countered by many specs.

xp eke xp.6724 Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 @ plushiesoda: Yes ranked with randoms is most times not that professional as full teams on tournaments. But it's not about the random mates, its more about the skillpool of that players -> if we got a basic knowledge/skill not that far of that of our top players it doesn't matter that much with what randoms you play. In other words this also means: to get your own out of rankloop, you need to be that well you allways know where to bring you impact at right time. Like take threats out. Its easyer this way as if you are at the same lvl as most randoms, cause your not that much pressured and get more chances. Btw nothing else happens on top lvl.. As more you master the game mode as less randomness happens to you and less frustrated it gets. (But maybe it gets boring cause you don't have much challenge so you deside to go wvw cause fighting 6 bad payers is more challenging than fighting one bad player) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crab Fear.1624 Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 Why nerf mirage? You can just increase condi removal, make resisitance an effect instead of a boon, and lower the cooldowns on all condi removal skills across the board.; sigil of purging should remove like 8 conditions every 5 seconds. This way we are all happy. No nerfs for mirage, and people won't get melted so easily Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is that healthy for the game? Think before you post. Mirage is one of 3 (is it 4?) classes that has no passive proc to save it. We rely on our active defense and twitch reaction time to survive Deadeyes, Core Guards, Boonbeasts, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
