I hope you haven't forgotten my role in this little story. I'm the leading man. You know what they say about the leading man? He never dies.

According to the the video the Yogscast released they said the ball thingy("2" skill) didn't get removed, but instead got rolled into the "1" ability.

So I thinks its a pure win for you staff Mesmers.

Holy shit! SHIT JUST GOT MOAR SERIOUS
Charging a mantra takes about 8 seconds, its however instant cast after that though.And can you attack someone and charge mantra at the same time?
There was one video of someone using it (the only person who used it) and its damage was the same as spam attack 1How do you know what damage Mantra of Pain does? And if it truly is pathetic, surely they will buff it.

I received a day one ORAS demo code. I am a chosen one.
Imagine having 3 clones and summoning the Warband. Charr is def. the way to go.

Zito are you sure charge will be eight seconds? Wiki says three.
It just sounds too long to try and charge it mid fight.
I like the new flurry ability sword mesmers got. Makes dual wield swords much more viable for pvp. Perhaps my dreams of being a battle mage mesmer will come to fruition.
From the mantra of pain video, it took around 8 seconds it looked like. It could have changed. Since the mantras were so weak they could of either changed the charge time or buff them significantly.
Their original purpose though was for you to use it pre-fight and have it omgwtfbbq powerful.
I still say elementalist is closer to a battle mage if anything in this game. Double dagger +3 summon elemental weapons meant for melee.I like the new flurry ability sword mesmers got. Makes dual wield swords much more viable for pvp. Perhaps my dreams of being a battle mage mesmer will come to fruition.

blegh, elementalists just seem like a bore no matter what weapon they use. A sword mesmer may not have the mechanics and abilities of a battle mages, but at least feels like a battle mage, WHICH IS ALL THAT MATTERS TO ME! But I too am interested how mantras will play out, they seem interesting, but might be a pain the ass.

Seems like I'll probably get decoy, distortion, and mantra of pain depending on how good it is. I'll get ether feast for healing, and moa bird for pvp since it doesn't seem to break on damage making it amazing if you're getting up close and personal, and time warp for pve.

By the way, are there any new good mesmer videos?

Well two of them are technically ranged. The bow is a bow, and the Lava Axe is a thrown weapon.
I'm not sure what the greatsword elite skill is yet. The main attack is named "Flame Wave" so I'm not sure what to think.
You do have a point though, elementalists will make for great "battle mages" through double dagger.

Roggles, Distortion is now part of the shatter mechanic. I'm taking Decoy and Mantra of Pain too but Mirror for healing. Portal seems interesting, but have to wait and see how good it will actually be.
