Guild Wars 2

In your own personal opinion which one is better and why?

What is more tastier? apples or oranges?
There is not going to be an answer that will tell you what to pick. Every class is very good in finishing the game and doing the content. at the moment there is no class standing above the others. there are however difference in playstyle and that can make a difference for you, but there is no better class. try them both and pick one. I couldn’t decide between ele and engineer, I took them both till level 55-ish and then decided to bring my engineer to the end first. but the ele will go to the end too.

If you’re able to put up with some game related faults such as pet AI, necromancers can be very fun. The thing is though, is that it’s a complex class and it’s hard to find a build with it that will suit every situation that you need.
Also understand that solo pvping is going to be really tough, so if you do play the necromancer, try to latch on to someone.

Coffe is right.
o: I wouldn’t mind being your buddy if were on the same server. Who knows maybe you’ll enjoy a support role, and i’m always looking for new friends.

It’s “do you like steak or icecream” more than apples or oranges. Necro and Ranger classes are both fun to me but in different ways. So “which is better question” is very inapplicable.

imo. I made a necro first and loved it. But I got tired of pets dying to fast and/or not attacking. So I made Ranger (still wanted a pet class) and I love it! It’s fun having different pets who actually live and attack. Someday I’ll go back to my Necro when they fix the pets.

Necro = temporary pets (meat shields), conditions, dots, ramp up to full dmg, death shroud (2nd hp bar & lackluster mechanic), less prevelant, light armor

Ranger = perma pets, lots of variety/utility with pets, range & melee viable, med armor, deals good damage w/ good survivability

I play Ranger & i love it. I tried necro for like a minute & just couldn’t get into it. That said, every profession has their complaints (except warrior it seems) so each will be fine-tuned over time. GL

I love my ranger with a greatsword/longbow but re necro I haven’t cared to play squishy casters in the past though I may give them a try(this game seems to like breaking out of the mold), but I’d like to know what they’ve done to my ranger pet! The last few days it will now just run off and create adds instead of going after the creature I’m actually fighting.
