Guild Wars 2

I started like 10 days ago and leveled a Guardian. I have enjoyed playing him but I want to add a Ranged type champion. I know that any champion can go Ranged but the Guardian’s Ranged capabilities seem heavily lacking as they are more for a Support type thing. I like being Support but sometimes it would just be nice to kill things from a distance.

I know the answer is “well, any class” but what is a good Ranged Profession? What Profession can solo without me feeling the desire to rip out my hair? How are they in WvW or dungeons later on?

Any advice in this regard would be awesome.

I find Ranger (Longbow or Axe/Warhorn) and Mesmer (Greatsword) to be good ranged class. Along probably with Warrior (Rifle – I don’t like Longbow much) too.

Mesmers can use Greatswords?…

60% of the time, this game confuses me all the time.

Lve 80 Ranger with Longbow/Axe and Dagger here. Having a blast player him too.

You do realise Guardian scepter is the highest DPS range weapon in the game right?

The only class truly committed to ranged combat is engineer. It provides the most options.

Warrior Rifle/Longbow is excellent.

It really isn’t.

.

yes and the longer the range the greater the damage . Greatsword Mesmer and Engineer would probably be my picks
