L&K – Shadow Return; Why Breaks are Good

Salutations and greetings, Thieves of Tyria! 

It’s been a little while since we’ve talked larceny as the profession talk slowed down a bit while we prepared the new website (Seven, you’re a mad wizard of the Internet!). Secondly, my absence was due to a self-imposed hiatus from Guild Wars 2 and from my Thief. Now, as a GW2 fanatic, this was a little difficult to do, but to be honest, I was feeling the fatigue after putting almost 500 hours into this game. 

Now were back, and I’ve never felt more ready to rob and mug my way through Lion’s Arch, Wintersday, and more!

WvW Rankings for 12/14

This past week, the NA standings stayed mostly stagnant with only the Gate of Madness server showing a big jump. In the EU, the WvW server rankings heat up as Vizunah Square passes Blacktide for the number one spot, while Aurora Glade makes the biggest move seen in weeks.

Big Swords & Butterflies: Blink Is Number Seven

Welcome back to Big Swords & Butterflies! This week we’re going to continue to cover the individual utility skills of the Mesmer, and I’m going to go out on a limb here and make a bold statement right from the start.  

So there are twenty different utility slot skills that Mesmers have available to them at this point in Guild Wars 2. As you know by now, you can pick three of these skills to have active at any time, and they are assigned numbers seven through nine on the skill bar.  Personally, I switch my utility skills up quite a bit depending on situation.  Portal will come out, naturally, for jumping puzzles.  Null Field and Feedback will be on the bar in dungeons and other group functions.  Arcane Thievery is a favorite sPvP skill of mine.  Decoy and Veil are good if you’re on the run.  But, there is one skill that’s always in my skill bar, unless I happen to be underwater: Blink.  

I seriously have not moved Blink out of my slot number 7 since August.  It’s that good.  It’s that versatile.  As far as I’m concerned, it’s synonymous with being a Mesmer.  No other profession gets the privilege of having a utility skill even close to being this useful.  No other profession gets the privilege, nay, the responsibility of moving where ever they want instantly in a range of 900.  The lesser professions may try, but they all fall short.  They have shorter ranges, longer cooldowns, or predefined targets that limit true mobility.  Throw in the correct trait bonuses and you can be teleporting at 1200 range every 24 seconds.  All I can say to the 85%ish percent of you out there that don’t play Mesmer is this:  Eat your heart out.
