All Mesmer City of Torc'qua Completion

Hi

As part of the weekly all mesmer team meets, a group of us decided to give the new skills a try. Where else to test them is that traditional mesmer no go zone of the DoA.

The team faced a number of build challenges, but we ended up running a shadow form tank with mimicry to extend SF so they could survive.
The other mesmers ran variations on Mor+Cry of Pain for damage. We had two mesmer/monks to provide prot an heal. The idea was to use as many Mesmer skills as possible, so there were no nukes, no SS just the secondary profession skills needed to survive.

Fighting to the city


Note the killing power. Most mobs did not survive longer than 3 seconds if agro was right. Properly aggro'd mobs would evaporate. Ina test run to foundry for example the titan mob in the first room was dead in under 3s. With damage of over 1500 in the area, with a 1/4 sec cast time, any survivors were rapidly finished off.



First part of the quest complete


Lord Jadoth is dead


Reward and celebration.


Deaths were minimal and it was a really great run. Congrats to all involved, for the record the completion time was 1:24

Read about that in AC, congratulations. =]

You guys really make me proud. Mesmer power ftw.

Great job in completing City of Torc'qua with an all Mesmer team! It is great to show the power of Mesmers.

congrats

I bet it took some real stretching of attributes to get heals pumped out.

Wow that is amazing. Congrats to all!

HOLY MESMERS BATMAN!

That was quite amazing! If you ever need another Mesmer PM me ingame.

Please let us know how the other areas go. I'm a bit curious if you can run your build in the other area's.

MESMERS FTW!

Dang wish I coulda been there as my mesmer was my first toon thru nf (and my 2nd mesmer was my 3rd thru)....would have been great to get a group and do some of those quests.

Very Very nice.

Very nice, congrats!

great job

congradz!
are u guys going to do 3 more areas now?

Gratz, I would like to see the other 3 area's done aswell. :-)

Gj you guys should make a mes cookie cutter build so i finnaly get a reason to play my retired mes again .

Any chance your ladies are planning to have open tryouts for these groups? I've been enjoying my mesmer alot so I'd like to tag along.

People had mentioned that city was a little too easy, so this weeks run we completed city in Hard Mode with the all mesmer team.

It took a little more time at 1:38 and the main additional hassle was the hex removal by the Ki'. However a Guildie mesmer managed to craft their armbrace so it made the trip extra nice.

I would love to go on one of these one of these days. I should start looking at potential Mesmer team builds; I tend to run Illusion but I'd think in an all-Mesmer team a little more flexibility might be needed.

Very nice work!

You guys/gals rock.
If only I had the patience to make a mesmer :P

Gratz, mesmers ftw ^^
