Lyssa's Aura versus Keystone bomber versus second Esurge
Similar to the comment on Dual Mesmer -- perhaps it is also worth exploring a second Esurge in the third slot? Lyssa's Aura seems to be less effectiveness since there is already an inept, and I have found Esurges to be more impactful than signet mesmers. --Xanshiz (talk) 21:52, 30 September 2019 (UTC)
 * This is a different kind of keystone mesmer than in the other team. While in dual mesmer the keystone mesmer is a more defensive alternative to using a standard domination magic mesmer this one provides minion bombing and thus helps the player to do his backline job through aggro shifting. In my tests both second illusion mesmer and minion bomber did their job of providing both damage and defense well. The test results indicate that both have their merits, but the minions seemed to be slightly more useful overall. A second energy surge would shift the balance much towards an offensive build, taking away the leeway all this extra defense gives to less experienced players, and I think that expert backline players who want to have offensive heroes could aswell run the triple energy surge team (probably drop ether feast) instead. Do you have a monk or ritualist to do some testing? I wouldn't rule out that ineptitude + dual energy surge does a good job. And if it does a better job for a healer than either of the two current builds, we can consider dropping this one. --Krschkr (talk) 00:36, 1 October 2019 (UTC)
