Guild Wars 2

Ok, so am wanting to create a new alt to try out the new trait system, megaserver, etc……wanting to experience leveling from 0-80 after the new patch.

I have several 80s, and several alts…..have been playing the game since 2 months after it was released…..am wanting to try something different/weird…..

My choices are either a warrior or a thief, neither of which I have played much at all.

I want something that will be helpful and somewhat desired in a group, and will be, eventually, good in either WvW and/or PvP, although most of my time leveling will be spent in PvE.

So am thinking maybe a sylvari warrior(nothing like a plant warrior to inspire fear….lol)

Or maybe a tiny asura thief.

I would like some suggestions for some odd/different character for either a thief or warrior. Feel free to suggest other races.

Please don’t post if you don’t have a valid suggestion…….am looking for suggestions from those of you who enjoy the game, and have good experience with these two professions.

Thanks!

No suggestions?

I am just finishing leveling my Sylvari Thief. I rather enjoy this Profession. It is not my main, but it is a lot of fun.

For what it’s worth, I had a blast leveling up an Asuran Warrior! Turned even more fun running around with dual axes

Good suggestions……thanks!….asuran warrior sounds even more weird than a sylvari warrior….lol…..sylvari thief sounds interesting, too

Thief was my favorite class to play. I rerolled to play with RL friends ankitten ow rocking a Guardian.
With my newfound love of sPvP, and the fact that you can now level in sPvP, I am highly considering swapping back to a thief.
My thief is a Charr (best race, IMO, although I love my Sylvari guard).
I made mine with the skinniest build, and colored him as a tiger, complete with tiger stripes. :P

Crazily enough I have two sylvari thieves. One at 80 who was one of my first characters and who I enjoy running around, and one with a much easier build than the older that’s still languishing in the mid-40s. For months now.

I love my Norn flamethrower/turret engineer (prob not popular for groups), and my Asura longbow/shortbow ranger who seems to do well enough at WvW that that’s going to be his thing. Got a Sylvari engineer on his way up that’s going to do the whole thing shirtless!

I actually have no idea what people like in groups so i just make what I like and see from there

Go for asura warrior. Its fun to see the little guy run around killing things 3 times his size with a sword.

I have an 80 norn(slight build) ranger(longbow/shortbow) that I am currently running in WvW……absolutely love him, as he was my first character…..absolute crazy fun to play in WvW(even though I die alot……but am getting better/smarter as I go, as I am running with a really good bunch of peeps that I met in WvW that are very friendly, knowledgeable, and willing to answer stupid questions)

That’s exactly why it sounds fun to me…….running a little tiny guy around with crazy warrior toughness and damage……lol
