Me/W is completly inferior to Me/R in the IW sence, tiger's fury and pet interrupts are way too good. Back on topic though.

Just a rough draft, but how about just screwing swords/axes/hammers and just using tactics? We could even through in a denravi to give the whole mesmers look cool with swords shabang, and give some 'omfg another IW lets disenchant it!" mind game.

Basic concept would be shield stance, or disciplined stance, as we do not have any adrenal skills. In addition to this we get a spiffy +16 armor, with our +15 while casting puts us at 81, we could use a +5 on that denravi for kicks and make this 86, now make that shield -2 while stanced +5 armor while stanced and we have 91, cool no?

And since we ARE using a sword, lets go all the way with repos and deadly repos

Now we could use heal sig, or we could skip it, your choice

For mesmer skills, we could use spirit of failure, keep energy up and all, would be nice.

And okay Im out of ideas, just typing this up rq before I head off to a dance. ttyl, eai out

Look at all 3 of my Me/W builds posted above.

See the repos, sig, and bonnetis.
Still believe shield stance and dislip deserve some credit.

Okay, here's the build I've been using... and it tanks very nicely, but sadly has the damage output of a level 1 rabbit.

Inspiration: 13 (11 + minor rune + hat)
Swordsmanship: 10
Tactics: 10

Sword w/ Defense Mod (Shocking/Barbed hilts? lol, I don't know.) (+15% in stance)
Shield w/ +45/-2 in Stance.

Riposte
Deadly Riposte
Watch Yourself
Healing Signet
Ether Feast
Ele Resistance
Phys Resistance
Res Sig

Full Rogue's Armor, of course, with Sup Vigor.

It ends up with 150ish Armor vs. Phys damage, or 140ish vs. Ele. Depending on current stance. It took a Life Transfer vampiric necro and a Flareway Me/E 25 minutes to kill me, and that's only because of interrupts and my horrible timing of skills.

Again, the damage output is crap, but used properly... it's hard to die. Of course, I'm thinking one of the Ripostes might be overkill, so it might be worth switching for Thrill of Victory or something. I dunno. I'll give it a shot.
