Guild Wars 2

Before you tell me they are all equal, know that every kitten mmorpg I play I make a character then delete him at level 20 ish and he is always dps. Then I make a healer and max him out, so now I have a 31 necromancer, I can’t play for jack. I need a simple class, easy to use, and basic! I really can’t think about curses, aoe sustain, burst I just can’t!

My advise is try guardian.

Warrior is easy class to play and very effective too. Can’t go wrong with Warrior. Warrior’s profession mechanic is simply a stronger hit.

Warrior is probably easiest and most forgiving to play.

So. Guardian or warrior?

Warrior or Guardian.

Ranger’s pretty easy too if you just want to do PvE.

Guardian or Warrior if you want to scale well into “lategame”.

Ranger if you ain’t hardcore.

I’d go with Guardian if I were you even if I hate both W & G. Gs got much more special sauce to their proffesion.

Warrior and Ranger

Which race should I go with or does it not matter?

Race doesn’t really matter. Go with whatever you want to play.

Which race should I go with or does it not matter?

- It doesn’t really matter as long as you adjust the nose size to maximum.

Go Mesmer!
On second thought, choose something else… Ranger/Warrior/Guardian are easy going.

So he can sound like a woman with a 30 year smoking habit?

Race doesn’t matter so just pick something you like.

I think you are deluded if you regard the voice of a female norn as the voice of a woman with a 30 year long smoking habit.

Race can matter if you think any racial skill will synenergize, so please don’t disregard norn.

So I’m going warrior norn, male =p but are they effective in both PvE and PvP?

Hello,

I hope this helps you:

Guardian:

Depends on your what you are playing. Supporting your team requires you to pay attention to what is going on around you. If you only play solo it is indeed a pretty “easy” profession. Really strong in PvE and PvP.

Warrior:

Imo the easiest profession for PvE (NOT PvP). You can pretty much faceroll the whole game if you are using a greatsword. The other weapons are pretty good too. In PvP however you are going to have a bad time. Pretty much any profession can counter you easily if they know how to play against a warrior (this may change in future patches though).

Engineer:

Not easy in PvE and PvP. You have to switch between different kits, etc. all the time to be effective. Some builds are also pretty weak.

Ranger:

Good for solo PvE since you always have a tank aka pet which makes it easy for you to focus on dealing damage. Meh for “high end” content like dungeons. Mediocre in PvP if you are bad at positioning, good if you are good at positioning.

Thief:

Ok for PvE. Kinda good for “high end” content (stealth res, high damage). Easy to use in PvP if you are simply spamming your skill. If you are not spamming though you can be much more effective but it also requires more skill.

Elementalist:

If you are a bad elementalist and only stay in one attunement pretty easy to play. If you want to be strong though an elementalist has a pretty high skill cap. You need to constantly switch between four attunements and keep all 20 skill CDs (cooldowns) and their combos in mind. High skill cap, but strong in any part of the game if played properly.

Mesmer:

Strong in any part of the game BUT also has a pretty high skill cap. You always need to play those mind games by using your illusions. Fun to play, but since you want an easy profession I would say no to this one.

Necromancer:

Ok in any part of the game (sometimes strong if played properly). Skill cap is ok which makes me wonder why you think it is difficult to play a necromancer. It’s not like you have to switch between attunements or kits all the time or have to play those mind games like mesmer players. An easy but still strong PvE build is the minion master. The minions do the majority of work for you while you can sit in the back casting a few skills.

To sum it up:

Guardian: Easy to play unless playing support. Yes.
Warrior: Faceroll for PvE, difficult for PvP. Yes if PvE player, no if PvP player.
Engineer: High skill cap. No.
Ranger: Ok skill cap. Maybe.
Thief: Maybe for PvE, no for PvP (if you want to play a thief properly).
Elementalist: High skill cap. No.
Mesmer: High skill cap. No.
Necromancer: Ok skill cap but since you are having problems with your necro right now no.

Keep in mind that this is only my opinion, other players may have different opinions. I hope this helped though.

Ranger….simply the easiest professsion to level. (I have all the professions)
