Use the 'search' button, there are enough PvE builds here you know.

Oh god - please don't read or reply to these kinds of posts if they annoy you so much! PLEASE LOOK DOWN THE PAGE at other posts you might like!

Not trying to be mean either - but I don't see why, if that's they way you feel about it, that you even bother to read this post, and why you bother to "reply" to it.

Hey,

Most PvE Mesmer bars consist of Backfire and Empathy. Both very effective as the AI will cast/attack right through it. If your FPS and ping are good you might consider bringing a few interupts such as Leech Signet, Power Spike and Power Leak?

For the elite you might wanna consider ESurge as it provides edenial and some AoE damage, or maybe something along the lines of Mantra of Recovery or Mantra of Recall?

A good idea to bring on your Mesmer bar is always Resurrection Chant. Whith high fast casting you can get this spell out almost as fast as a res sig and brings party members back to life with full health (although little energy).

Dont play much Mesmer but hope this helped.

PvE non domination build: Ineptitude {E}, Sig of Clumsiness, Clumsiness, Epidemic, some E-mgt, optional 1, optional 2, Res.

Optional can be PvE only skills or skills works in the team build.

For example, yesterday we were with several guild players in an area with quite a lot of melee foes.
The moment our warrior got aggro of quite a number of them, I cast Sympathetic Visage on him (he did not know I had it in my bar).
He was stunned by the huge number of -3's (energy) on the screen (Hard Mode ftw).

Does anyone know if Signet of Illusions will work with the Asura's Summon skills? If so, Arcane echo + SoI + Summon Mursaat

It does work with pve only spells. But you can't cast two Asuran summons, the first one disappears.
You can echo the vanguard sin though, which is fun

You can echo the vanguard sin though, which is fun Thanks. Actually I was thinking more towards, casting a mursaat, then when he goes away and my skill is still recycling, I cast my echoed one.

I'm sure you can Arcane Echo and Echo Breath Of The Dwarf for those nasty burning areas.
