Note: i havent tried the new traits and skills as i dont have much time to play atm.
But i did read about them on wiki and forums.
i also apolagise for any typoes considering im writting this on my phone.

So i was thinking about making a new sylvari character and id like to hear out some oppinions about classes with the new traits and skills before i decide to make one.

Im considering to make new thief or ranger since i think it fits with the race.
I already have a ele, war, guard, mes at lvl 80 with nice gear.
i have a low lvl engie charr (but i cant seem to get myself into the guns,turrets and explosives theme)
J also plaid thief and rangers but not for long and it was pre patch
So before you paste “play what you like” ill tell you what i do like. The main reason im asking about the suggestion is cause i dont know how the 2 classes work with the new traits and i also feel like lvling a sylvari and trying out the personal story.

so heres a list of things i like to do and id like your oppinions about what class would be more fun for me:

pvp; i do pvp mostly for dailies. Meaning i play on whatever class is needed.
Stronghold mode could be interesting tho

Wvw; i never really plaid as a commander, i enjoyed folowing the zerg , taging enemies, as well as using siege for defending keeps. I also had fun with my old low lvlthief by zipping trough the map and scouting as well as using ambush trap as a long distance “alarm”

Pve; i like exploring, slecially the treasures and jp. I also enjoyed stealthing and shadow stepping in mini dungeons trough traps and veterans that guarded the treasure.

i also enjoydd collecting pets as a ranger . Made me pay attention to my suroundings that are quite nice.

dungeons and fractals; i havent been doing much fractals and i only do dungeony when i want some extra gold or a dungeon skin.
Besides… my experiance is that i most often switch on another char that the party is lacking

Note: im looking to play for fun and pve mostly. Meaning lots of casual explorjng if tbe world, interacting with pcs, reading dialogues, story missions , trying out funny builds lkke trapper runes ect.
being super meta and optimal isnt my goal.
i also love when i can have different playstyles on a single profession like power, condi, traps, venom, stealth builds, ratial skills, playing with pets, interacting with other players and npcs with combo fields and boons ect.

So what do you guys sugest?
Which proff would be more fun for me thiefs or rangers? ( when it comes to the things i mentioned)
