Guild Wars 2

However, these three classes must cover all available weapon types, and all available armor types.

I am placing space to protect you from reading below posts before someone writes down the answers. I’d encourage you not to post the direct answers, but any cool tips or knowledge it helps you figure out. After a few hours ill post neat facts about the different combinations and logics for figuring out why certain classes cannot be picked. Unless someone else does

Hint: There are only two answers.

My answer.

You’re missing pistol.

Swap out Necro for Guardian and Ranger for Thief.

That won’t help him because you need one of each armor type.

Ah I missed armor type.

Warrior , Thief, Mesmer

Ioflux.4369:

Warrior , Thief, Mesmer

That’s one of the two answers. The one I first thought of myself, till someone told me a second.

Warrior Ranger Mesmer is the other

Mesmer, Ranger, Warrior?

Mesmer has Staff, Scepter, Focus, Pistol.
Ranger has Shortbow, Longbow, Sword, Horn, Axe, Torch.
Warrior has Rifle, Greatsword, Mace, Hammer, Shield.

Either warrior or engineer is required, because they are the only classes capable of using rifles. However, you must choose either thief or ranger for medium armor because you need the short bow, so engineer is never an option.

If you go for the ranger, you need to choose the mesmer, because neither the ranger nor the warrior can use pistols.

If you go for the thief, you must also choose the mesmer, because you need a class which can use torches.

So the two possible solutions are:
— Warrior, Ranger, Mesmer
— Warrior, Thief, Mesmer

I didn’t see that requirement. ALRIGHT then, last try:

For anyone struggling with the other: You are not allowed to pick Engineer or Guardian. If you pick engineer, you disable the other two classes in Medium Armor who use Shortbows, the only users of shortbows.

If you pick Guardian, you force Engineer.. and engineer is bad.

Exterminans.9723:

Mesmer, Ranger, Warrior?

Mesmer has Staff, Scepter, Focus, Pistol.
Ranger has Shortbow, Longbow, Sword, Horn, Axe, Torch.
Warrior has Rifle, Greatsword, Mace, Hammer, Shield.

Either warrior or engineer is required, because they are the only classes capable of using rifles. However, you must choose either thief or ranger for medium armor because you need the short bow, so engineer is never an option.

If you go for the ranger, you need to choose the mesmer, because neither the ranger nor the warrior can use pistols.

If you go for the thief, you must also choose the mesmer, because you need a class which can use torches.

So the two possible solutions are:
— Warrior, Ranger, Mesmer
— Warrior, Thief, Mesmer

Your logical reasoning is beautiful. You got it in just before I posted it. Engineer and Guardian are way off limits

Without listing any weapons twice…

….So my answer is either ThisWar,Mes, Ranger or ThatWar, Mes, Thief.

Option 1: Warrior, Ranger, Mesmer. Option 2: Warrior, Thief, Mesmer.

I feel it was easier for you being that you probably looked at your own characters ;D

Well looks like we got that squared away. I’m off now to my travels, hope you all have fun with it.

Option 1: Warrior, Ranger, Mesmer.
Option 2: Warrior, Thief, Mesmer.
Option 3: Warrior, Ranger, Necromancer.

Warrior, Ranger, Necromancer cannot work because no one uses a Pistol.

oh boo, my mistake, ty ty.

English, Art, Biology.

Warrior, Thief, Mesmer should cover anything no?
Warrior covers almost all melee, rifle and LB, Mesmer covers all that cowardly magic weaponry, Thief SB and daggers.
Pistols are shared from Mes/Thief.
