Any ideas on a Mesmer low health 105 type build. I'm looking for something similar to what the 105 Monks are using. I figure:

3 to 4 Superior Runes

Domination
Illusion
Inspiration
Fast Casting

Skills
Spirit of Failure
Distortion
Chaos Storm
Elemental Resistance
Physical Reisistence

What do you guys think so far?

I presume this is for farming.

I don't see much damage being delivered with just chaos storm.

1. The ideal farmer will dish out significant damage in 360 degrees while enduring blows and attacks from 360 degrees for a sustained length of time and not running out of energy.

2. If you're going to go low health with mesmer skills then you clearly don't understand the rationale behind the low health build in the monk. It's been explained a dozen times in other threads - please research.

3. 3-4 sup runes won't take you to 105 health.

But if you want to make a mesmer farmer - then just try it out. Test it's weaknesses. Then fine tune it. And try it again. etc. And when/if you discover some super mesmer farmer build we'll all feel sorry for doubting you.

Youve got some serious issues here with your Mesmer. Im a level 20 mesmer, and my health is running about 600 right now. My energy is running at 47, and I use Illusion, Inspiration, and fast casting.
My skills are as follows...

Energy Tap
Energy Drain
Etherfeast
Inspired Hex
Clumsiness
Phantom Pain
Conjure Phantasm
Conjure Nightmare

Alot of the time I will substitute out one of the damage dealing skills to replace it with Inspired Enchantment, so that way I have both hex and enchantment loaded at the same time...

On my armor, I just changed from Virtuoso to the Enchanters.... The Enchanters Armor gives me more energy, but not as much armor as the Virtuoso... I decided to go with more armor.

I also have a Gorrels Staff, which is green, and that gives me an extra 60 health. Also, I used to have a superior illusion rune in my hero, boosting up my illusion damage, but decided to take the extra +75 health, and replace the superior rune with a minor rune.

This works for me, however, I find that farming alone in new areas of factions is pretty tough... And the only place I have never been to in the prophecies section is the FOW and the UW. I finished everything else, but just never got any invitations while waiting to get into the UW and FOW.

I plan to go back there today and see if my Mesmer can handle those areas.

If anybody has any suggestions for me, please, I would greatly welcome them.
