So, the topic may be a bit misleading, but it seems like I always get an error message for too many characters in my title, so I just kept it as short as possible.

I’ve been playing the game off and on for years, and have all professions at 80 (and crafts maxed), but i’ve never really concentrated on a single one, and so i’m not really that good at any class.

With this past weekend’s demo, I was surprised to find that I really enjoyed pvp, and that’s a whole lot of content/achiev/rewards that i’ve completely ignored.

With that said, I would like to concentrate on a single class for a single purpose, and I would like some recommendations for not necessarily the “best”, but a good, solid class for each one that would be group beneficial and not too impossible to be good at.

PvP?

Raids?

Fractals?

WvW?

I realize any class can be good at any one of these if done properly, but I just wanted to simplify things a bit.

Thanks for any help and for reading through my rambling questions while I’m stuck at work.

I only do WvW from that list, so in WvW you have a mix of Guardians, Eles, Necros, Revenants, Mesmers and Necros. You would need HoT and elite spec for most, not sure if you have bought and finished HoT already. All of these classes are good in group, yet they usually fit into different role.

If you’re talking about ’best" as in “will take you”……

Raids:
- Healing Druid/Condi Druid
- ChronoTank

Fractals:
- Guardians speced for reflect and Stab
- Support Eles

PvP:
No best class…. its a dice throw based on your team comp vs enemy team comp.
So unless you’re going with a pre-formed or dual queue, play a build that works for game mode (conquest or stronghold) AND you know how to play with

WvW: Utilizes the most diverse set of builds in the game. You build for either Solo Roaming, Havoc squad, or Zerg meta; each with their set of tactics and buildcraft.
Depending on what you’re aiming to do, determines what builds you’ll want to run.

WvW: There is no meta. Just slap something together you think works, and go.

I’ve done some really trolly builds in WvW

One of them was the Perma-stealth Condi Ghost Thief based off of a video. It’s pretty hilarious to kill someone who will never see you.
