Guild Wars 2

I am curious to see what words everyone associates the nine professions of Guild Wars 2 with. You can use either a personality trait, a word that describes the professions mechanics, or you can use both if you so wish. Devs if you see this and want to tag in by all means do so!

For me it is the following:

Guardians: no-nonsense; leadership
Warriors: kamikaze
Revenant: edgelord
Ranger: versatility
Thief: lazy/repetitive
Engineer: technical
Elementalist: overbearing but helpful
Necromancer: angst
Mesmer: cheerful

That tells me more about the player posting it than it does about the professions. I think the list above attributes too much importance to the names & appearances, rather than how the profs actually work mechanically or how they are played by the community.

I expected this to be interesting, and thought it might be when I saw what you think of Guardians, but then it immediately devolved into (mostly) single word opinions of the classes and the people that play them. I can do that.

Every class that isn’t a Revenant with Herald elite spec: Bad™

You’re right, this is fun.

Fun game, lemme try!

Guardian: Ironically Squishy
Warrior: Greatsword
Revenant: Shiro
Ranger: Poor pet management
