Ok i will start off by saying I fracking love this game and it is so much fun!

I have a major issue tho, I am a Completionist and I love finishing zones so that is super fun for me. The issue is I can’t choose a profession to play.

In head start I made a norn warrior to level 40 and go bored so I made a bunch of other characters mainly human and norn races. Didn’t try Necro, ranger or Mesmer.

Right now I have a level 50 human warrior and it’s pretty fun but feels a bit plain and generic. I have around 30% world completion for him. Now I really want to make a Norn Necro because it seems interesting to me. Now here are my issues that is driving me insane if I reroll for a 4th time:

- I feel like if I keep refilling I’ll miss out on lowbie instances because no many ppl will be doing them
- I feel like I’ll miss the initial fun of Orr but I hear some of the DE’s are
bugged?
- it might be tough to re explore hoalbrak for a 4th time

I feel like I am insane for thinking this but is it ok to reroll mains this early? I like being in the flow with the community but I feel like I’m restarting alllll over again.

i know exactly how you feel ..i am a completionist and a perfectionist myself …it took me 2 days to create my final character (not kidding lol)

..my first choice was a necromancer and i leveled it up to 22 …i enjoyed the character and the game content but then i rerolled to a ranger as minions weren’t really my style ..now i just love everything about the new character ….the ranger in this game meets my playstile perfectly and it will be my main character

i’m not really in a rush to meet up in level with my friends as i want to enjoy this game slowly and for a long long time

I partly want to make a Necro but I have a few hang ups.

- do you need babysit all he minions? I sort of hate babysitting pets
- I’m not super fond of the staff being all targetable aoe’s so i was thinking dual dagger for melee, would that make sense?

Ugh so confused!!!!!

-minions often die so you would need to always respawn them
-the staff shoots demonic hands in a straight line so you would have to always line mobs up to be efficient, and all other staff skills are area marks
-dual dagger makes sense as it makes the biggest damage and i always played with them, the only problem is the light armor which makes you very fragile in melee combat

Maybe ill try dual dagger and see how I like it. Constantly resin mining minions seems like a total pain!

Hmm it is intriguing the daggers had the highest damage I had no idea about that actually might be fun. I’ll need to read up more about it! Thank you!

So i may have had a revelation! So sitting here at work doing nothing it came to me.

I love greatswords but warriors feel plain too me.
I love the norn light armor but I really dislike elementalist and Necro.

Greatsword Mesmer! I want to try this class weapon combo but i heard weird things about kiting? Anyone have any insight on fun/quality of Greatsword Mesmer for nothing but PvE leveling?
