I would like know if everyone prefers this style of guide, short, sweet and to the point, or would everyone prefer a more indepth, maybe 45 minute long video explaining each Profession?
Truth be told I would like both lol
As a new player I prefer short guides that are direct to the point and help to avoid common beginner mistakes. Just enough to set me off on the right foot, then I can make my own decisions and start learning and experiencing from there.
If I get more experience and wanna dig into mechanics more, longer guides.
@@Estus__Flask Makes sense! A small introduction often leads to wanting more knowledge so I guess both work lol
@@Estus__Flask Could not agree more!
@@Juhgoot This is what I came to say, so I heavily second this! Both!!!!
I've been watching loads of Mesmer guides recently, and this is above and beyond the best I've seen. It's down to earth and no nonsense. Easiest guide to understand, by far. Thank You So Much for this video!
Thanks so much for the kind words ❤️ I hope to have the other classes out soon as well!

- Mesmer Staff Illusion
Instructions unclear. Cloned myself to in an attempt to avoid the black lion trading tax.
My clone was cut to pieces by black lion tax collectors. Now I am presumed dead and can't access any of the major cities in fear of trial and execution.
Please send help. And enough gold to buy a name change contract so I can change my name.
Tarir is your safe haven! Octovine until enough gold lol. Then you can be someone else and definitely "not" do that again
Thanks for the guide. I just chose Mesmer and now I'm glad I did. 🥰
Not to sound ungrateful but I can't wait to see "so you want to play a _______" video for all the professions great job
Ask and you shall recieve! Working on some now haha
I wish you did all the classes, this was so good
I want too but I gotta find more free time first! Next one I'm working on is Revenant though :D
And chuckle I did lol... this was pretty fun to watch, hope you are still making vids, I'll subscribe to watch 'em. Best luck.
3:15 Don't you dare to pick on people who use staff. I WILL flex on you with my Mesmer staff :P
It's true I've had gold sent to me for portaling some through a jumping puzzle. Didn't ask for it but it's nice.
I've played for about two years, I have one character, a Mesmer. Nuff said! Haha!! Seeing 3 of me, with my hawt fashion = total win! Oh also, condi mirage staff/staff is da best in open world and not bad in raiding. Great video!!
Me wielding 2 staffs on my mirage condi build watching this vid: 👀
Lovely guide
Incredible video. I laughed the whole time 😂😂😂
As a mesmer main I really enjoyed this
Thanks! I wasn't sure to play as this, cause I was confused if it is spellcaster or warrior with magic support. I like the idea of having portals!
Portals are a way of life! Mesmer is definitely a spellcaster at heart I think, but throwing a greatsword at an enemy sure sounds warrior as hell!
Loved the guide! Really helped my newbie friends to understand the class with a good bit of comedy! I hope you don't mind me giving juuuust a slight nitpick/more info
Mesmers summon illusions which are both phantasms and clones. You can only explode/shatter clones. You cannot explode/shatter a phantasm.
Phantasms are the illusions that do the one ability (they can be interrupted) and then transforms itself into a clone. (excluding the trait chronophantasma) There is no limit to how many phantasms you can summon.
F3 is not a stun, it's a daze. Stuns stop you from moving and using skills while daze only stops you from using skills. You can still move and dodge while you are dazed.
I know this is a bit more detailed and is probably out of the scope for a introductory video but I wanted to mention it nonetheless in-case any newcomers get confused!
"F3 is not a stun, it's a daze. Stuns stop you from moving and using skills while daze only stops you from using skills. You can still move and dodge while you are dazed."
You can. But in regard to enemies in PvE, daze and stun act the same.
thank you I was just about to be all politically correct here too but someone beat me to it
P.S. Virtuosos dont get clones
I use Staff, because I mostly do debuff and condition enhancement for the group, with 3 clones up staff rocks very well
Yeah its pretty good
Do you have any more of these amazing videos? I could only find this one and the thief one.
Cheers, great job!
I'm hoping to make more soon. Life kinda got in the way, but I want to make one for each Profession!
@@AshenWingzGaming yes I was just about to start playing and saw this guide and needed more haha! I played about 12?? years ago as a kid and loved it, and just remembered it because the prime gaming deal.
it did make me chuckle!
the coomer outifit XD
If my Mesmer isn't hot, I don't want them xD
Mesmer best class, but anet hates us and keeps nerfing 🤣
I love the purple butterflys,
Can I know what weight armors needed for this build
I was hoping that there would be explosions
All I wanna know is: How I know which mesmer I should hit in PvP?? I can never tell the clones from the actual player
That's the point. :P
Well, it may be small comfort, but the clones have less HP ^^°
Mesmer kinda reminds me of dark knight from bdo
Tbh Staff mirage in open world is so broken. You just shit damage while being immune to damage like 60% of the time.
I am an ele main i am trying out mesmer for now let me tell u this I am 'mesmer'ized by greatswords and the low APM 😅
Going to make a Mesmer just to get rich with portals
I run a bizarre build that has staff/gs because I do a lot of solo stuff and staff can be slow, but if I were going to do strikes, I'd go staff/staff. Better to give alacrity IMO.
"You'll want to use a greatsword because you wanna fight from long range".
...what is this game. Have I finally lost my mind?
Go play Thief Daredevil: they go melee with a staff. Or Revenant, using a hammer as ranged XD
Yes, but.... will there be explosions?
Of course!!! And some Implosions if you're kucky 😉
@@AshenWingzGaming is mesmer a good class
@@michelle2011995 I think so
@@AshenWingzGaming i am asking because i what to try it out
@@michelle2011995 If you're mainly a pve player not so much, for pvp/wvw it's one of the most interesting and powerful classes
Are they any good in PVE? I always assumed Mesmer to be a PVP only class
I would say they do very well in PvE. Especially with utility skill to summon a clone that taunts all creatures.
in raids they have a lot of different uses. tank/dps/supp. in Fractals, they sort of lack ae attacks, but are still capable and very good on single target bosses. Open world pve; also yes.
Mesmer is annoying to play in PvE. The build you'd probably be running is either dual staff alacrity mirage (that can solo a lot of things in this game, but it sure takes a fuckin while), or something far less efficient but not as boring. Mesmer DOES shine in PvP though, and WvW as well
Oh and I was referring to open world/frogs, I don't really do raids but for raids you'll probably be an even bigger alacrity slave but on Chrono instead of Mirage
So i was torn between elementlist and mesmer as my first ever character, after watching this all i can say is fuck elementalist i'm gonna main mesmer :')
I love me some Avatar State Elementalist but Mesmer is just a different beast all together!
@@AshenWingzGaming Haha I'll probably play the avatar to but I'm a free player right now so 2 slots
all of mesmers stuff is in the mind of their enemies its not real just hallucinations
Very good intro. Other intros are lame and long.
Portals 👌
What set is that transmog?
Looks like the winged set.
