Guild Wars 2

I’m gonna be posting my limited experience from what I’ve spent playing the beta features in PvP.
I’ve tried everything so far and here is my brief overview(excluding rev because I already posted in the rev forum):

Chronomancer -> The amount of alacity that you can get is really, really good, maybe a bit too much. Shield I don’t like that much, its basically a better focus but I don’t find it enjoyable to use (the block doesn’t seem that good for anything other than a block and the tides of time skills is somewhat funky to use and easily dodged. and basically in a shatter build torch is better.
The slow is kind of not as good as I thought it would be, I thought it’d be OP but I don’t get that feeling, with the grandmaster trait there is maybe a bit too much application of it, should be reduced. The trait combo of 222 meaning superspeed to shattered illusions, quickness + alacity to yourself is REALLY good and I love it, it makes you play super super super fast and really fits the chronomancer theme might be a bit too good but seeing as it’s just to the mesmer it could be okay. I’d just suggest maybe reducing the amount of alacity one gets by shattering a clone.
I’ve not tried all of the wells but the elite well seems very underwhelming, the cc is great but its basically only good for the 2s float on downed bodies to prevent ressurections ect, I’d really like to see the damage it does increased or something added to it.
F5 is just pure awesomeness. Its not easy to use but rewards good use, has many applications.

Reaper -> Greatsword is very bad for PvP, its VERY easy to kite the necromancer given the slow speed of the attacks and the class itself. This is where chill was supposed to kick in but it doesn’t really work out, the meta staff + d/wh will outpreform greatsword, maybe increase the attack speed a tiny bit.
Reaper Shroud is REALLY fun to use and really good, I wouldn’t change much about it. Dhuumfire + shroud 1 is a great combo, especially if you take the +15% attack speed trait. I feel like reaper shroud won’t really work that well for condi builds except a possible burn build. There are a few combos which are really basically useless if you run both gs and reaper shroud, if you use greatsword 4 into shroud 4 it sends out a bunch of leeching bolts which don’t really do anything.
Chilling Victory + Bitter Chill + Deaths embrace combined seems like it could be a bit overpowered if you manage to hit shroud 5 into shroud 4 onto the enemy, that will basically give you 25 might + 25 vulnerability on the enemy.
Most of the shouts I see as very situational. The Weaklings shout could be good in some PvE scenarios. Overall I’m not a huge fan of them.

Tempest -> I’ve not played much of tempest. What I’ve observed is that it has gross amount of protection uptime, the overcharging atts is very easy to interrupt. For now I don’t think anyone will use this in PvP because of how standard d/d elementalist is like at the moment, everything is basically irreplacable. Even if d/d gets nerfed I still hardly see it being used because of the simple fact that the things elementalist has currently just outpreforms tempest.

Dragonhunter -> I feel like its very cc aimed and rewards ccing enemies with the ccing cripples enemies, deal more damage to crippled enemies trait, the traps I don’t necesseraly see being used except maybe for negating shadow refuge or resurrections via the reveal trap.
Longbow 5 I’d say is really strong and maybe a bit too much, thats potentially like having 5 ring of wardings that have +1s duration + damage all from range at kitten cd compared to hammer ring 5s duration on 40s cd. I know people will leave the AOE most of the time but say if you use it during someone resurrecting a player it could mean the end of the fight if your team follows it up with damage. I’d perhaps tone down that skill but other than that I like it. The virtues are really good, the F2 especially.
