Guild Wars 2

For solo PvE farming and potentially raid spots, what are the best condition classes and why? Unfortunately, I am not the greatest at super long complex rotations so I already can rule out the engineer but don’t know what’s what since I had to quit for a year or so.

I know Guardian, Warriors, Mesmers, Rangers and Necromancers are all condition classrs, but which ones are the greatest at doing the role and why? I don’t need FOTM class or super meta, just a good to great rated condi class that will be allowed into pugs and can farm well.

Thanks all!!!!!#

From a DPS standpoint Ranger is top dog atm….but like everything, things change most every patch

It depends on what conditions you want to inflict.

thief/necromancer: best for poison damage
engi/guard: best at burning
rev/mesmer: best for confusion and torment
warrior: best for bleeding
ranger: more well-rounded between bleed, burn and poison
ele: burn and bleeding

as far as pve, confusion and torment underperforms due to AI limitations.

Thief does bad poison condi damage. Thief does EXCELLENT bleeding damage. I constantly hit 10k bleed ticks, without any food, using my viper’s teef.

From elitist standpoint:

Acceptable condi classes: Ranger, Engi, Necro, Mesmer, Warrior(if PS Condi)
Second tier condi classes: Guardian, Thief, Ele, Warrior(not PS)
Trash tier condi classes: Revenant
