Professions
dervishes are essentially guardians considering all the melee power+cond stripping and boons…
they made it very clear they dont want monks back because they want to avoid having a “trinity”
ritualist.. i doubt it… but possibly way down the line they may introduce new professions or races and this seems the most likely of these particular 3 to happen but I don’t expect it to be the same “SoS, insert 3 other spirits, random skill that pumps spirits and locks them on target, sit back and do nothing until everything is dead” like it was in gw1 though.
Will we ever get Ritualist
Engineers have replaced ritualists. The ritualists were an adaptation of the concept of engineers in the first place, in fact.

treadmill, of being in that obvious pattern of every time I catch up you are going to
put another carrot in front of me” – Mike O’Brien right before Ascended weapons

New professions? Sure, probably an heavy armor wearer. Monk-Dervish-Paragon? Nope, not a chance unless they completely rework those classes to the point of not resembling their original counterpart anymore.
“We have no first-person view because stupid people would lock into it”
“You can’t have more than 10 HS decks because that would confuse people”
“30 fps is more cinematic”

I think we will see the monk again, but not in the same way it was in GW1. I bet about the time Cantha becomes available, we will see some kind of melee focused scholar monk, which may or may not be magical. We will see though. The difficulty is finding new niches for professions to fill that can’t be covered by existing ones already.
