Guild Wars 2

I kinda want a class that i put a lot effort into, that means i want to buy legendaries, spend all my laurels on that, buy some expensive dyes, and so on..

I kinda want the class to be decent at “everything” -> tpvp, dungeons, wvw.
I’ve been thinking about these classes;
lvl 80 Thief (my main atm)
lvl 80 Warrior
lvl 58 Mesmer (its an asura atm, thinking about rerolling it into a human)

What would you say?

Maybe even a 3rd class?

Guardian? Guards are good at pretty much everything.

I’ve been thinking about guardians as well, would like to participate in the cof p1 farm runs as well, that’s why i’ve been thinking so much about either mesmer or warrior ^^

guards can DPS just fine, the only CoF groups you won’t be able to join obviously are 4 war 1 mes

yeah, and thats pretty much the groups i want to be in, if i want to farm :P

Still not sure which i should use for my main; Thief, warrior or mesmer.
help me

All of these classes play differently and have noticably different spec options. It’s basically impossible for us to give some kind of universal answer. If you’re really just looking for a CoF cookie cutter farming build, then you already know that you’re playing a Warrior or Mesmer in Berserker gear. Beyond that, you’ve given no other forms of useful information to aid us in making a suggestion.

Ele. Good at all aspects of the game and, with no weapon swapping, you’ll be able to show off your Legendary 100% of the time.

Isn’t Mesmer good at everything? It’s light armored, I personally like the light armors best but that’s just me. It also has the best options for a legendary, again in my opinion. Bifrost and Twlight/Sunrise look really nice. I may be biased because my main is an Elementalist (also Asura) and I’m a sucker for magic based classes and staves. xP

Which legendary? :P
I do actually have an elementalist, but i never play her anymore.. Also i think they’re getting nerfed all the time oO are they still a bit OP in tpvp? :P

EDIT i just checked my ele out, and i wont get back to it, atleast not for now xD they got nerfed to the ground it seems

I just got a mesmer to 80 after leveling and guardian to 80. My guardian is in full exotics, mix of hotw and tier 3 norn cultural with a ascended amulet and corrupt hammer and great sword.

I am now considering salvaging my guardian’s gear and use that to gear my mesmer.

I’ve never been in a situation where I was like “Boy I wish I had X for this……..” on my mesmer….because mesmer has something for every situation.

Yeah, i kinda got the same feeling..
Whats ur mesmers race btw? :P

I kinda feel like making a human mesmer, and probably run that as my main, but idk yet..
I feel like asura mesmer suits better for tpvp, and outside tpvp human suits the mesmer better, this is because you can get cultural armors, legendaries etc outside, which looks better on asura..
This is why i havent geared my mesmer yet, its just sitting there being lvl 80, i dont know what to do yet..

My mesmer is a sylvari, if you like I can provide screen shots of her.

Sure, i’d like that.
Thing is, i spent the last 2-3 days trying to get my mesmer lvl 80, and if im gonna reroll it now, i’ll feel sad

Here you go, this is when she was still low but I kept her outfit the same from 1-80

oh, nice :P
i’ve noticed people complaining about the mesmer nerfs, and they’re retiring from them..
This makes me wonder if they’re worth playing, i mean.. everyone can complain about it, but how big was this confusion nerf to mesmer? And are we afraid for more upcoming nerfs?
I won’t put a lot effort into a char, which will most likely get nerfed oO

All the confusion nerf hit was builds centered around confusion. I don’t play confusion however so no idea on how it really is now.

As for nerfs……….eh, don’t pick a class just because it seems least likely to be nerf. In a MMO, EVERY class gets nerfed and EVERY class gets buffed at some point. It’s just the nature of things.

I’m thinking about warrior, only reason its not my main, is that its only good for pve as far as i know

It seems the forums are filled with players of all professions saying they’re hanging up their _. Don’t play the profession that you think is strong right now. Because in 2 months it might not be. And then 3 months after that it’s at the top of the charts. It’s an evolving game. Play what you find fun. Find the profession that has great mechanics and a theme you truly enjoy. For me, it’s the engineer. I love it. No matter how strong/weak it is, it’s incredibly fun.

Yeah, probably..
Been thinking about leveling a guardian as well..

I found myself in a similar situation and what I did was I read the profession section of the forums, checked out different classes/builds. Read what people said about each class, both pros and cons. Leveled a char until I had a feel for that class, jumped into the heart of mists and tested out certain builds in pvp. That gave me an idea of what char I wanted as my main.

You have a thief, warrior and mesmer but which of them do you find the most fun and which suits your play style? It should come down to what you enjoy the most. You mentioned that you wanted to be able to farm the cof warrior/mes groups, you can always make a char solely for farming too.

As for your asuran mesmer, you seem to have your doubts about it and were thinking about rerolling as a human. Personally, I wouldn’t want to spend all of my laurels/gold on a char I wasn’t sure about. Maybe you should keep that char for farming/pvp until you decide. Might even be worth making a human mes [not deleting your current one] and play around with it at low lvls and see if you think its really what you want and if you think it’s worth it to re-roll.

Atm i might just stick to my warrior..
Still not sure yet tho :P
