E/Me JQ Hexual Harassment

Attributes

13 Energy Storage, 11 Domination Magic, 10 Illusion Magic, 1 Air Magic (depends on skills)

Conjure Nightmare

Wastrel's Demise

Wastrel's Worry

Imagined Burden

Options:

• Mantra of Resolve (PvP) to prevent interrupts - use this if you see lots of mesmers around.
• Storm Djinn's Haste for speed boost
• Cry of Frustration and other interrupts if you have low ping (I don't)

Equipment

• Superior Vigor, Pyromancer set (depends on what the other side runs). Add runes (attunement, vitae, etc) to taste.
• 40/40 Domination Magic set
• HCT/HRT and HCT/15 energy set (mid energy Domination Magic set)
• High energy set
• Defensive sets

Usage

• Rapidly Activate and Cancel Second Wind till exhaustion is half bar or more. You MUST have high exhaustion to be effective! Maintain exhaustion at half bar (offense mode) or more when under heavy attack and extended survival is worth it.
• Head to the enemy's near side quarry and snare their carrier, cover with wastrels and conjure nightmare.
• Put Backfire on spell casters, cover with Conjure Nightmare. Put Diversion on casters or assassins, cover with Wastrels.
• Do not kill or snare returning carriers with no slabs. Snare empty carriers that are advancing to mines, but do not kill them till they get near or a monk gets near to them (cover snare with Conjure Nightmare - not lethal).
• Avoid mobs - if there are way too many enemies (they are killing you too fast), target a carrier somewhere else. But if there are many and they are not killing you fast it means your team has fewer to deal with and should do better unless they are bots or very bad.
• Snaring of carriers slows down enemy scoring even if the carriers don't die.
• Use Distortion to pass longbow guard posts or block assassins/rangers/etc.
• Use Distortion or Wastrel's Worry to remove enemy Wastrels.
• Use Second Wind to self heal or get energy.
• Cancel skills to bait interrupts.

Counters

• One good mesmer
• One average mesmer + one average enemy, two above average enemies, or three average enemies.
