Top mesmer weapons

[Dionysius]

Just curious. how much damage does the best mesmer weapon do?

[Downward]

It depnds on your preference (and build) as to what the "best" Mesmer weapon is. a Mesmer/Warrior will obviously take a sword or axe over a wand. A more caster-based one will probably go rod or wand and a + energy off-hand item. I prefer a sword and an off-hand +energy item at the moment, but I'm only lvl 8 and just into the post-searing. It helps to have a little more damage in melee, and swords and melee weapons tend to hit harder when compared to all the wands and staves I have seen.

I found 10-18 cane and 10-19 jeweler's staff. donno if there are higher ones.

Highest I found so far was:

Jeweled Staff
Energy +10
Chaos Damage 11-21 (req. 10 Illusion Magic)
Improves casting speed (Chance 5%)

damage isnt always the key, right now i have a staff that does only 6-9 damage. But it adds fast cast at an 11% chance and Domination +1 at 21% chance. also +10 extra energy as well

I meant to say that at that point in the game, having all the damage you can do available is nice. I agree that a wand or staff with a good set of enchantments is far more valuable to a pure caster in the end game than a 18-20 damage longsword, for example.

when a mesmer is low on energy, he is supposed to steal energy from other players, not waste his time hitting with a silly wand
