Q:

There is 1 low armor, low health profession: Elementalist
There is 1 medium armor, low health profession: Thief
There is 1 high armor, low health profession: Guardian

There is 1 low armor, medium health profession: Mesmer
There are 2 medium armor, medium health professions: Ranger and Engineer
There should be a high armor, medium health profession

There is 1 high armor, high health profession: Warrior
There is 1 low armor, high health profession: Necromancer
There should be a medium armor, high health profession
***************************************************
I know we cant have all combinations right now since we don’t have 9 professions, yet, but I especially feel that since we have 2 medium armor classes, one of them should have a high base health. I feel that the engineer should have this, due to the nature of the profession being designed for midrange and more “up close and personal”. Does anyone know why ArenaNet decided this?

If I am not mistaken, engineers were meant to be a heavy armor class at some point

So which do you want to have higher base health, rangers or engineers?

Well, rangers seem to be more kite-centric with so many long range attacks and a pet to do their dirty work, and ANet has said that they want Engineers to be a mid-range fighter, so it seems like Engineer would be the more likely candidate.

Honestly, I dont really care, but it seems weird to have 2 medium armor classes that both have medium health.

Make guards medium health, make engies low health high armor, and introduce Dervish.

We can dream, right?
