I've been waiting for this one! I love Mesmer, but I struggled with the main-hand sword in melee, so I usually played condi builds. But this seems much more my style for a power build. Thanks!
Great guide and review! It took me quite awhile to find a spear/class combo that worked for me and came to Renegade Revenant & Virtuoso Mesmer. Will definitely be giving Chronomancer another shot after watching this video.
As always there are two and only two people I associate Gw2 with you and Wooden Potatoes. I will forever be sad this never made its way onto console's as it is literally the perfect mmo for console play. Thank you for such a well done review. It makes me miss Gw2 far less @Kroof. I have loved seeing you and the channel grow over the years
Personally I fell in love with the Mirage/Spear combination, the animation for the Ambush Spear skill looks nice and it also let's you stack 25 Vulnerability in just a second. Paired with the 15% damage buff you're actually doing pretty well as a Mirage/Spear class. If you pair it with Sword/Sword you got another on-demand Daze, additional defensive options (Blur & Block) and another way to stack Might quickly. Greatsword is obviously another great option but I prefer being in the thick of it.
@@alexisivanciu5984 Gear would be traditional Full Berserker, or whatever Power-setup you are comfortable with (I like to put Soldier on Breast and Pants, to be a bit more durable on LightArmor classes for example). Traits: Dueling: 1-2-3 Illusions: 2-2-1 Mirage: 2-2-1 Though this can easily be improved I'm sure and you might want to swap/adjust a little depending on where you are at. In Janthir Wilds for example I'd recommend picking something to remove Conditions more easily I guess. Definitely try playing around with things that suit you the most.
God dammit i didnt know the clarity disappeared after using another skill for empowered effect. Now I know why it felt so inconsistent and it helps that 5 resets your 2 cd so you can just stack clarity fast
I was using the spear on my heal alac Chrono. The spear phantasm is great for alac generation on your party. You open with spear, then swap and camp rifle
Hey! That's probably something that was asked multiple times - are you using shaders? If yes, can you share the preset? Your game looks gorgeous, and each shader preset I've tried completely darkers or blurs the game. And also LEVEL UP YOUR MASTERY :D

This one is also more inline with what I like :P

I just threw it on my power Chronomancer build and it's been a blast!

But what is with Mukluk? His guides are doing us a Great Service
Spear and greatsword power mirage with sigils of stamina is a lot of fun in target-rich environments.
Ooo that is a GREAT open world build! I should try that out soon.
Great series cant wait for the Rev episode! keep it up
Rev will be here before you know it ;P
I love Spear on Mesmer same as you. Plays very nice and smooth on Chronomancer...

"The whole world of spear opened up to me" I felt this 💯 The combo is insane! 💟 (Been on Virtuoso as a glass cannon)
Virt feels so nice with the Spear.

I love it as well! We’ve finally got a simple weapon (GS aside) that’s straight forward, powerful AND fun🎉

Yeah with two Phants it can feel really good. :D

And wath do you think about spear/GS on chrono or virtuoso?
I have that same skin for my Mesmer I got it from rookuri in her subathon I love it so much
Awesome guide. Link to build? I always struggle to build my character gears and stuff.
What gear did you use on you build?
Great guide. Will there be a build link for the chrono version?
Good presentation :)
@@JohnFitzgerald_1879 thank you very much ✨🙏
Seems like a melee range weapon for Virtuoso and that's about it. Needs work.
Could you use this as a second weapon on the condi mirage? So staff, and spear?
Never mind lol. I rewatched it and it looks like more of a power weapon.
Hello, what values do you use for armor, weapons and jewelry for a Mesmer?
Usually Zerker and Dragons. Open world you can add a few other stat types for more survivability.
