Need help on 2 classes!
Magic vs guns
Pets vs turrets
You said it yourself every class can fill a number of roles, it all comes down to which class you find more appealing..
err engineer here. imo engineers are very versatile, but you’ll see alot of condi-based or crit-based engineers running around. Survivability is pretty good considering pistol + a kit will always have 2 blinds on demand (which are rather useful for surviving). Rifle has good burst but only at melee range (jump shot thingy). As for farming well, grenades are really good at tagging mobs coz of the constant aoe damage and different conditions you can apply as well. and sometimes the turrets are useful (ac path 3, thumper turrets ftw).
can’t give any info on necro tho i heard they’re good at condi as well.
Which has more survivability? – necro
Which has more dmg (burst – engineer
and sustained?) – both
Which can farm well/wvw well? – both
Also difficulty. – imho engineer has a higher skill ceiling, every class is easy to pick though
oh yes i forgot that necros can survive more. with speccing into vit, i heard someone mention some necro in pvp having 28k life and a huge life in the f1-mode thingy. =O
Idk, maybe im doing something wrong? My necro doesnt seem to be able to HEAL beyond his heal skill very well xD
Healing should always be your last resort in surviving
