Q:

hello peeps. I’ve been struggling with choosing characters , i know it’s annoying , but i really need help to choose

I’m looking for character useful for pve content solo and groups. With a possibility to pvp for fun. Something fun to play…

So i tried all the professions except mesmer and engi , because mesmer seems like more single target or PvP like character , and engi i don’t know just doesn’t look fun to me. I played many different mmorpgs , but it’s never been so difficult to choose one character. It’s like I love and hate them all at the same time
I have:
Guardian – boosted to lvl 80 i kinda like it , but I just don’t wanna touch it until ill reach 80 by myself with other character. boosted just to get glider )

Hunter – doesn’t feel comfortable being dependant on pet , and damage is single targeted … except the 5 skill on lb … but it feels not enough, and using other weapons as main … just doesn’t feel right… so squishy if i get too close.

Warrior – reached highest level with this one almost 30 :D . Really fun to play, a bit too easy to control, but feels nice. I was expecting to get unkillable tank with decent dps . That kind of characters usualy rule pve , but people talk differently . I’ve been reading through different forums , i got the idea that warriors kinda doesn’t have a main role or the thing they are good at , and basically are not that good at anything .

Thief – had the most fun lvling this one… really fun to jump around the map, killing mobs without getting a single hit , but feels like it’s more pvp based class. not sure if it’s useful for pve content. And you probably get so squishy late game , that if you fail to evade , you die … that might be a problem to fight in close range in crowded places also feels like it has lack of aoe dmg as well but not too sure , because i haven’t tried all of his weapon sets.

Elementalist – that’s the class people around forums say … it’s so good for pve ! so i tried it as well … reached lvl 10 also tried it in pvp lobby . Leveling wasn’t very fun quite slow and boring also the skill sets was sooo complex. Are you playing your keyboard like a piano while evading all the attacks? basicaly i just couldn’t find a way to play it effective yet. but it’s the profession i played least of all above.

This game has a bit different concept than other mmorpgs i’ve tried . It’s something new for me , that’s why it’s so hard to choose. I just want to play them all . I keep swaping from one to another, but i wanna make one strong character as my main. I’m struggling with that for almost a week now . I know YOU HAVE play the character you like the most and bla bla bla this game is changing the balance all the time , but i like and hate them all like i said :D.

I want your opinions C: thanks in advance

Which profession you enjoy playing most?

Most fun I have is playing elementalist, and Mesmer. I find engineer fun, but can be a quite a bit with swapping kits a lot unless you go power hammer.

Eh … ele can be complex but you can get by sitting in fire or air most of the time anyway. Playing to the fullest does require awareness of all the skills. The need to play to the fullest is also pretty rare though.
