Feedback talk:User/Thalanor Thornhale/Bringing the Mesmer to GW2

I'm not saying that what was written is bad, but I don't view the Mesmer that way at all. I always thought a Mesmer would be an Illusion type caster, something messing with and damaging the minds of foes. I then finally played in 2007 and was... disappointed. Not that Mesmer was bad, just not at all what I pictured it doing. All the purple was making me laugh, in a bad way.

I'd seriously hope that, with how changed GW2 is from GW1, the Mesmer would turn into a more devastating Damage dealer with some support skills. I'm happy the game is being designed around not having a dedicated healer. So I assume their won't be main support either. That frees up a good deal to reinvent the Mesmer. I'd hope it would use arcane energy and will to warp the minds of foes, thereby altering actions, perceptions, and doing damage. Wazwolf 15:25, 19 August 2011 (UTC)
