My search for a Main.
All are enjoyable, but I enjoyed engie most of all.
Dual pistol thief lacks any real AOE. That is kind of a pain in events, so bring a shortbow. I avoided thief because it was so overpopulated.
Elementalist is amazingly versatile, massively fun, and requires the most skill to play right. Of course, any idiot can face roll and be fine, but they will be on forums within a week QQing about how weak their class is, while the good players are having a blast.
Mesmer is… Different. I stopped playing because I couldn’t look at the clones/phantasms correctly. I looked at it as a pet class, when in actuality they are just you-shaped moving landmines. Figure that out and you will be a BEAST. They are amazing in capable hands. Don’t figure out and, like me, you will suck with the class.
Engineers are highly versatile. They can use kits, but don’t have to. They are very under appreciated, as well. We have a lot of little bugs that can cause some annoyance, but at the end of the day I’m happy, power wise, with where my class is. A few cosmetic changes would be nice (being able to hide the kits backpack would make me the happiest engie ever), but nothing substantial.
If you were right for engineer, you wouldn’t have made this thread :P
Engineers just know who they are. It’s in their blood.
When in doubt, take a look at end game gear and imagine what you would rather have your character look like.
