Guild Wars 2

i would like to have 5 toons (1 for each playable race) and have already decided on making a guard, mesmer, ranger, and engineer. as for my last one ive narrowed it down to either a thief, ele, or necro. i dont want to make all three since i would hardly be able to maintain the five i want. any suggestions? i spend most of my time playing pvp and wvw. i dont run fractals often but im thinking of getting into raiding one day.

You have two medium classes and one each of heavy & light, so I’d pass on thief, using that as a decent arbitrary reason.

Given your preference for PvP & WvW, not fractals, and yes to raids.. elementalist is the better choice. A good ele is really useful in all sorts of WvW and does great DPS for raids. Necros aren’t as asked for ever in my WvW experience (plenty of people play them already) and harder to PUG raids with.

tl;dr Ele.

Fair warning ele is just a healbot in pvp so if you prefer playing a dps that’s something to consider
