Frustrated Mesmer in Cantha

Mesmers own in PvE/PvP, we have a bad rap because stupid people play mesmer badly...U can hench ur way through all of guild wars with a mesmer and usually your better off with henchies then the pugs that think mesmers suck anyways...Empathy/Backfire or SS/Empathy/Backfire is more than enough in PvE....If groups wont accept you dont cry about how good mesmers are, grab the healer hench and forget about the w/mo that called u a noob....if you cant hench with a mesmer using backfire ,empathy , power drain and enchant drain + whatever other dom skills u want the w/mo was right.....u are a noob It's not that simple. Try any high level missions, using those skills you mentioned. Most of the time, the henchmen simply can't heal enough, since everyone (with the possible exception of Redemptor Karl) have horrible builds.

However we now have this great new thing called duel (which will get nerfed for some reason I swear...)so we can easily kill wammos(for sake of pride =p); just feedback their enchantment use mantra of persistence crippling anguish phantom pain conjurephantasm/images of remorse and they lose. Energy tap, whatever to prevent excessive cop use, wammos are not noted for their energy pool (not that I have ever dueled a wammo and have actually seen this skill used, it should be, but never is) bring ignorence with enough points in it to perma counter heal sig and a few interrupts~ you win. Game over no possible builds that they could have can beat you. Wammo bites the dust.

Doesn't get you the group; but stops their mesmer hate flame and gives you some self esteem back.

Don't bother with ignorance, complicate ftw! Interrupt AND signet disable = gg warrior.

And just for the record, THK is easier with hench than with real players 95% of the time. Especially as mesmer... Perfected armor? Ineptitude. Demetrios? Diversion. Some of us don't have factions =/
Nice idea with the interrupt on complicate; although ignorence will stop their cast as well (if it hits before sig goes off)

It's not that simple. Try any high level missions, using those skills you mentioned. Most of the time, the henchmen simply can't heal enough, since everyone (with the possible exception of Redemptor Karl) have horrible builds. I fully henched both sides of GW using only those skillz...if the henchmen cant heal ur targeting the wrong enemy's first.......

If ppl complain to be stuck at THK, its because they generally have a problem (Rage Quitter, Lack of communication,etc). As the time passes, ppl ask Tank, Monk, Nuker, MM and SS now. I rarely see asking the other professions (Mesmer, Ranger and other Elemantalist type). Wonder if there will be a day and age where groups are formed from one of each profession.

Yet (how I see it)
Henchies obtain 2 monks, one pro and one healing
-PuGs want 2 monks, one pro and one healing
Henchies get 2 tanks
-PuGs want 2 tanks
Henchie mesmer sucks
-PuGs think mesmers suck
etc.

etc. Henchies "not =" Players. Sorry, but I dont think when players see a mesmer they say "OMGZ, DISTORTION SPAMEERZ LIKZ DUNHAM !!!1!11!". Oh and another thing too, PuGs want 2 monks, not 1 healer and 1 prot specific. They generally take 2 healers or, rare to see those ones and misfortune for them, 1 smiter.


Edit:
I can call them Jerks when they said Mesmers, Rangers, Ele non- nukers, Blood Necro and Smiter suck..... Or just ignorants. Thinking on henchies maybe makes bad reputations on these professions, but also on the player who said it as well.

Guess my PuG experience is different from yours, almost always if one is healing they will check and ask if one can go prot. Perhaps that is just my experience.
At least Dunham brings distortion ^_^~;;(I know waaaaaaaaay too many conjure phantasm spammers who don't bring distortion, gives me nightmares I swear, if you are going to spam a bad pve skill to the end of the universe and back at least bring distortion ='( )
