So Dire gear and Trailblazer's gear is great for that.
Can apply around 30 stacks of confusion with a proper combo and has a lot of mobility, Mirage only. Has a lot of survivability and if you use dire gear instead of trailblazer it's not even that expensive to gear up. And as Mirage is different, in a shatter build, the Chaos trait line has Chaotic Transferrance trait which gives bonus condition damage based on how much toughness you have. For the most part, all of the phrasings cover the same things: champ bags, world boss rewards, g-missions, etc. Pistol 5 is a good breakbar skill and good for dazing trash mobs because it jumps from one to another.Shield: Chronomancer only, has more utility than i can count especially due to Shield 4 giving you 2 blocking chances, and it summons a phantasm for each block that gives Alacrity or quickness to you and your party (skills cooldown faster - cast skills faster). Isn't it that we have a tiny chance of ascended gear from anything that can drop exotics? Last trait favors keeping your phantasms alive (Which is not hard as they regenerate each other lol, kinda broken, but good for us Utility skills are set up for fractals, bosses and strong enemies. You can also use Viper's for mirage and instead of Chaotic Transferrance pick something else from that trait tier. Knowing how to use blinks to increase evasion is also useful. In those kills, I’ve had one drop.
I find that I like switching back and forth between dual swords and Greatsword better for my play style but everything else is set up like yours. © 2020 ArenaNet, LLC.
Their logic is that you want to get to 100% crit chance in order to maximize dps.
But you'll see what i mean when you decide to play mirage, it's quite different than core mesmer.The main thing is, just have fun with it, and don't be afraid to experiment, use builds as guidelines, but if you see some synergy from a trait you want to use, try it out, you can always switch traits for free, so experimentation doesn't hurt.I just got PoF and I'm super excited about the mounts and I'm in the process of training for Mirage so I can try out your build. Extremely needed in some situations.Mantra of Pain: With Inspiration specialization, can heal you as you deal damage (if that trick still works). That build is dead, but Assassins has it's place. All rights reserved. One measly Ascended box. Your choice of: Sword, Dagger, Greatsword, Shield or... Scepter I think.you can convert them from one to the other, still cost quite a bit though; after you have all the skins unlocked you get a skin of the 'real' Caladbolg skin as a reward.Having said that, the most common way for an ascended weapon is to do Tequatl to get ascended weapon box, very rarely will you get an ascended armor boxfor armor, mid to high-end fractal is a common area for ascended armor boxI remember doing Teq religiously for months, must’ve racked up atleast 500 kills of it since the revamp (which added the Tequatl Hoard weapon boxes). Focus 4 gives you a field you pass through to get haste, and the second time you activate it pulls all enemies to it's center. Restorative mantras will heal you and allies when you finish preparing a mantra. Don't use F2 shatter with this build, it's useless. I'm about 6 Spiritwood Planks away from completing Zojja's Staff too. You'll have to do Twilight Arbor for nightmare runes though, nowhere else to get them.As for a core mesmer, here's a build i used until i got some elite specializations:**Party play that focuses on healing and defending others***This build focuses on keepeng your phantasms up and attacking enemies. I've played Wow since 2005 and Guild Wars 2 has blown that game away in every way but especially with it's community Yeah, you can definitely use greatsword with that build. (5% from a passive trait, 20% from fury) It was great to only ever crit, and at 220% damage... always.
I ended up with Soldier's Exotic Gear (not sure if I just picked this or not...don't remember) which seems to be ok but I always like to check with those who have played the class and know what works best.Do you have any expansions? Not very useful a lot of the time, but sometimes it can be. EN SAVOIR PLUS. Mirage is interesting and you can have fun with interrupts (if you use Teq's rune) with the elite skill (3 interrupts is great). So if you primarily want to do conditions, you'd choose a build with clones and shatter them a lot.
Spear is kinda power weapon, trident is kinda like staff but meh...Domination: Good for interrupts, applying debuffs to enemies like weakness and vulnerability.Dueling: Great for power builds and phantasms since you'll be keeping your phantasms alive most of the time and won't shatter then.
