5 + 3 Fast casting
12 + 3 + 1 Illusion
2 + 3 Inspiration
9 Healing Prayers (+7 breeze, +3 mending)
8 Protection Prayers (15s spirit)

Also this might be a stupid question but is 12 the base stats, and the 3 + 1 illusion are the bonuses from the items?

If I may, could I see a screenshot of the gear you're using. Thanks.

Its an automatic key binding (you dont have to do anything), see the small numbers in the bottom right corner of each skill. You should, those stand for the 1-8 numerical keys on your keyboard (right above the letters you should be typing with). You can subsitute mouse clicking for these numbers, however as you see on the video when you use both the mouse and the numbers to use skills, amazng things can happen.

And to the creater of this Mes/Mo build, I congradulate you.
Before AOE was nerfed I made a Mo/Mes build, but that has currently gone by the wayside.
Nice Build!

Yes, thats 12 base + 1 mask + 3 rune.

My equip:

Droknar's Illusion Mask + Super illu rune
Desert Collector Attire + Super insp rune
Desert Collector Gloves + Super dom rune
Desert Collector Hose + Super illu rune
Desert Collector Boots + Super fast rune
(all 60AL on the above)

Icy Dragon Sword of enchanting +18%
Grim Cesta -50 hp

And yes, on the vid i sometimes click with mouse, sometimes use the 1-8 keybindings.

Well, gave this build a shot today... very nice. I just need to work on my accuracy a bit... I keep failing out of UW by hitting Breeze when I need Prot Spirit... DOH! I've lost 3 plat doing that...

Farming Hydras, though, has yielded nice results... griffins I get weak drops from, but that's nothing new. And it's certainly fun to mention the accomplishments on Guild Chat... "I just soloed UW!" "Cool?" "I'm a mesmer!" "Oh... wow..."

Very nice build. For creating a soloing mesmer, you are my hero.

Astral Design · Dec 30, 2005, 12:49 PM // 12:49

This is probibly a noob question but could you tell me where to far... er .. Hunt Hydras? I have been running trolls and Griffins with my W/Mo and its getting a bit boring.

Avarre · Dec 30, 2005, 01:41 PM // 13:41

Just outside the north exit of Augury rock, you'll find hydras in groups of 1-3 that wander around. If farming them with my build, swap power leak for mantra of flame. (helps give some extra energy)

Tarot Ribos · Dec 30, 2005, 04:59 PM // 16:59

Avarre: actually, I've found swapping out Mending for Mantra of Flame is more effective... Meteor is still annoying to deal with. And you don't really need Mending if you keep Breeze up. As said in the original post, Mending is there to counteract the bleeding the Aatxes inflict. Since Hydras don't inflict bleeding, Mending just eats more energy.

Oh, and on a different note... has anyone else tried Nolani Academy with this build? It's actually kind of hard. Well, with 15 AL from Ascalon, anyways. (Yeah, I'm cheap like that.) But hey, the chaos is fun.

popserias · Dec 31, 2005, 12:36 AM // 00:36

Awesome work

I only got slight energy problems, if there is only one mob left. I start with 37 + 3 from offhand-item when enchanted and 1 regeneration pip cause of the 3 enchantments. (Well, i have some messed up armor-combination

)

And I have a question: What's the name of the band/song used in the demonstration-video?

With one enemy left, just make sure you constantly attack it and the +2 per time your hit, +1 from ripostes and 1 pip of regen is enough to allow you to finish off a single enemy, just make sure you renew enchants as late as possible (without letting prot spirit down).

There really is no reason to use any armor other than full enchanters for a 55 build, just as with a 55 monk using all tats. Armor isn't a factor.

Your energy is renewable, so max energy isn't really that much of a consideration. The only time energy comes close to being a trouble is when you recast IW versus 1 aatxe, and if you're not spamming spirit/breeze (waiting to renew when nearly out), even that isn't a problem. Enchanter just helps reduce the margin for error.

I used ascalon because I'm cheap, then moved to desert collector. No reason to spend extra money on armor

Armor isn't a factor, unless you're using Ascalon (then the nightmares 1-hit you without spirit, with 60AL you can take a hit

)

I love this build but since im new, what armor do i buy from droks??
Also, when do i put the 5 sup runes on (What Level)?? Also, do i really need a %18+enchantment sword for this to work???

explicytcontent · Jan 01, 2006, 11:22 PM // 23:22

I love this build because i love mesmers. But im new to this so i need to know, what armor in droks do i buy??
Also, once i get my 5 sup runes for mesmers, when do i add them to my armor??

Avarre · Jan 02, 2006, 12:06 AM // 00:06

Enchanter Armor is the best to use, but you can use ANY armor and this will work (preferable not rogue's set however, the -energy doesn't help). If you're new, as you say, it's better to get a set of desert collector's, as you'll need 2 sets of armor (normal gear, and 5 super rune gear). Once you have a spare set of armor, you can apply the runes to that.

I run with a 14% sword that I stole from a friend because I couldn't be bothered standing around spamming WTB and wanted to test the build out but as a European you never know when you're going to lose favour so I had to hurry. It worked fine for me and in all honesty I've never even bothered looking for an improvement since it serves me perfectly well.

Something of around 15%+ shouldn't cost you too much anyway, especially since people will likely take less money if it's still attached to a (Sub perfect) sword since they'd rather be guaranteed of less money than have an uncertain (Salvaging for the upgrade) chance at more money and since the swords stats don't matter for you...

Man I love this buil! I bought all the junk I needed for it: Enchantment AXE (eat that, sword users), -50hp item and armor with sup runes on it. I died because of the nightmares twice now

First time I didn't have Prot spirit on and he killed me in 2 shots. Second time, I killed a nightmare, walked a litte further and two more spawned...

Yeah the double-spawn is impossible to survive with aatxes on you... fortunately usually there is only a doublespawn in the middle, and using a bow you can pull the aatxes safely. Just keep spirit up when nightmares arrive, versus two just powerdrain one and begin wanding it (or bow if you dont have a wand, just slower). Rend will kill the second, recast prot spirit and finish off the first.

A long/storm bow is quite handy for pulling aatxes back... usually the only time I die to nightmares now is when they spawn on the stairs, aggroing aatxes before im ready or when they spawn in the smite area alongside 5 smites (too many things hitting meee). Imho the hardest part of the run is the first pack of aatxes. Once you've cleared the top of the stairs on both sides, you're pretty much there. Only other way to die is accidentally aggroing 2 packs of nightmares (you cant survive that either, 5 mobs is kinda the max you can hold, and with 7 your spells get disrupted much more often).

Tarot Ribos · Jan 03, 2006, 05:21 PM // 17:21

Avarre: Thanks for the hint there on the double-nightmare spawn. That's been killing me a number of times now. I just panic when I see them, and they proceed to kill me.

Status Update on use: The build is awesome for taking out hydras... so I've been wasting my time there, mainly. I'm also working on getting my Desert Collector's Armor (again, too cheap to go for Enchanters), so that the Nightmares won't 1-hit kill me. So... very little has happened to me on the way of UW runs.

Oh, and had a blast with this in GvG as a Suicidal lamb for Minion Masters. Okay, BiP may be more efficient for saccing there, but it's great fun confusing the opposing team, then getting ressed with 0 HP. Over, and over, and over... We actually won a couple of matches that way. Of course, this was the night where the ladder was locked, so none of it counted (hence, my whimsical choice of GvG builds).
