Because Energy Storage >> Fast Casting, and pumping Elementalist attributes to high level with runes is more valuable than pumping up Mesmer ones. Elementalist/Mesmer is generally just a better build, Mesmer/Elementalist is more of a combination for specific, niche strategies.

Currently you craft the best, level 20 armors in Ventari's Dell, or whatever they call that outpost these days. I'd bet on them moving him for release, though.

Mesmers have better armors than Elementalists, but not by too much. Other aspects of the character classes are just more important.

[COLOR=DarkGreen]well i think it should be strategy, skill, and attribute related to your choice. mesmers have the better armor, like 65 al, instead of 55 al. so armor could be one reason to go mesmer/elem. another could be tyhat they want there spells to cast faster, mostly some water and fire users. i mean rodgorts takes like 5 secs to cost, wigh hifh fast casting it will only cost about 2.5 secs. dramatically better there, and sometimes like a mesmer/warrior using illusionary weaponry, wll want there spells to cast faster. say they use illusionary with lava font, they want lava font to cast faster, more damge from swords, etc. some buidls dotn need as much energy and so then fast casting becomes the better attribute.[/COLOR]
