Talk:Wandering Eye

a weaker but aoe clumlessness? interesting anet realy seem to be pushing mesmers into pve more with all these aoe
 * It's good they're making mesmers good in PvE (not that they were bad at any time). I think it would be kinda funny to use this and Cluminess on 1 target in succession. Lots of attack interrupts and good damage, yay :D

except they are also pushing eles out of pvp and pve because of all the buffs on mesmers and nerfs on elementalist skills


 * No, I think all the idiot Fire eles need to just realize that fire sucks ass in PvP and start using Water and Air --Gimmethegepgun 21:46, 2 August 2007 (CDT)
 * ^^ ah so true
 * Notice mesmer skills used to be ~2-3 seconds casting time to make up for Fast Casting? Another way I think they are buffing mesmers is to make more 1 second cast spells so Fast Casting can really shine. I actually like what ANet is doing! Yay ANet!

 * I had realized that some time ago (My main character is, and always has been, a Mesmer) and thought it was unfair, good to see they're realizing it too. Also on the note about Elementalists in PvP: People also need to realize that spending two minutes and Eight people to kill a single Geo-Tank in AB because nobody has enchantment strips is -NOT- smart battle tactics. But BEING a Geo-Tank with no attack skills other than maybe the annoying Stone Daggers and taking up 4 enemies time -IS- good battle tactics =D Zulu Inuoe 20:42, 4 August 2007 (CDT)

Hmm, this + Mistrust + Cry of Pain + Cry of Frustration AoE damage? Gogo? (T/C) 02:53, 5 August 2007 (CDT)
 * Yes, yes, yes, no. For some reason I've never brung myself to use Cry of Frustration it annoys me. Zulu Inuoe 05:24, 5 August 2007 (CDT)
 * That's too bad, CoF is popular enough to have its own Wiki abbreviation redirect. Almost 50 damage and all foes in a huge radius also get interrupted...personally it's my favorite out of all Mesmer interrupts. Besides, foes are pretty likely to be preparing a healing skill after being hit with all those other Spells. [[Image:Entropy Sig.jpg]] (T/C) 13:51, 5 August 2007 (CDT)
 * My favorite Mesmer interrupt is Power Return because it shows the power of manipulating energy, that lets ANet make a Non-Elite, low cost, low recharge interrupt in an easy skill line, and still is not over-powered. I now know why I don't use Cry of Frustration though, it's because the last time I played Domi-interrupt in PvP was back when Auspicious Incantation didn't exist, and I was recently new to energy management, so the 15 energy cost on me was quite the burden, and hip-hop was all the rage.

 * Ew, 45 energy and 3.5 (minus fastcasting) + 2.25 (aftercast) seconds spent to deal ~250 damage to nearby foes and ~150 in the area? The amount of time spent casting is okay, but the energy cost is hideous. Depending on your FC rank, you'll gain ~5 energy from regeneration alone, and using energy management mid cast is going to take a toll on your time spent. --Kale Ironfist 19:46, 5 August 2007 (CDT)
 * I think one of the big things she means is the whole interrupt thing, and the possibility to disrupt multiple foes. But that's of course a matter of chance, but what's being a Mesmer without a willingness to take chance? Zulu Inuoe 08:57, 6 August 2007 (CDT)

Consider Mantra of Recovery + Frustration + Clumsiness + Wandering Eye. Used on a non-caster foe in Hard Mode that should inflict some serious damage AND prevent lots of hits. A.Saturnus 04:56, 8 August 2007 (CDT)
