Cant Perma With a Mesmer Anymore

I have to agree somewhat with this. I don't care one way or the other about this particular skill nerf because I don't farm, but I am very fed up with the nerfing of skills in general. I would say that I play only about a 16th of the amount that I used to play mostly because of skill nerfing.
....I am a multiclasser and have always been a multiclasser and I play Guildwars for two primary reasons - I liked the graphics and I like the customization allowed by multiclassing (I don’t care about the free no-pay to play part – It’s not my motivation for playing GWs). ....However, this style of player that enjoys a playing style based on their secondary class gets absolutely crushed by nerfs..... ...What if the OP just loved being a Mesmer hanging out in the mountains going solo. What if he/she thought “Oh I just love it when my mesmer makes that cool move!” thoroughly appriciating some of the effects that A-net had created for enjoyable play. ...Why is it wrong to be upset that a character that you were enjoying so thoroughly is now unplayable? Is this fun, people? Personally I think it stinks. I think that playing a game where you have something major taken away from you again and again really stinks! ...And yes, dasmitchies is right when he/she says “Every time you kill someones build many go bye bye.” I would say that is a fair assessment of one end of the nerfing situation. |
I too have a mesmer that l loved to be able to perma on, mainly for asura rep. points in Magnus rather than farming.
I havn't tried for awhile, and it may be maintainable with cons, however it was took some practice to maintain it before, it wasn't easy by any means.
I do have a sin btw, its just that like you said, l liked the option on my mesmer also, it was fun.
Just like doing fast Fow and Doa runs was b4 the ursan nerf. Now Doa is empty and Toa isn't far off. Is this what Anet wanted?
I wonder how many others worked hard to max their Norn rank b4 the nerf.
And despite what many wingers said, it still took skill to use ursan effectively. Sure, Fow isnt impossible in HM anymore, but stuffed if l want to spend +hours doing it when it could be done in 45mins with a good team.
Many people l know have left GW due to these nerfs and l know others who are thinking of it since the Pve acquisition of Faction points has been introduced. I believe that was intended to stop FFF, and fair enough, still the title now is a waste of time. AB has become a joke since more faction can be gained through FA & JQ. I just hope they do rebalance the faction reward for AB still. FA still favours Kurz. Anyway, thats another rave.
Point being, that all these nerfs can't be good for business, just going by the number of people l know who've left because of them.
I still enjoy playing Gw, but alot of the challenging fun has gone out of it, and many of my friends think so still too and have said they won't buy GW2 if the same is going to happen there.

Ok, Anet will change SF back to pre-nerf when they give me 10,000 ecto.
You get my point...

You can still make shiverpeak tour and droks run with a mesmer. Learn your safe spots, and adapt your bar a bit. Seriously. ;\ You can still get 3 shadow forms in the chain that's more than enough to get you to some safe point to let it drop/recharge and heal up.
Yes it's sad, I was a bit heartbroken to find out I can't be invincible anymore, but oh well. God-mode was fun while it lasted.
