Guild Wars 2

Just like the title says… What classes are overpopulated and which are under?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Guild Wars 2 Census

If you are looking to be the unique snowflake you won’t find it. The class distribution is evened out enough so you will run into plenty of people using the same class no matter which you pick. Warrior is the only one ever came close to overpopulated.

I would be curious how representative that population (43488 characters as I make this post) is of the overall population, considering that site’s stats are more even than the one-year stats shown by the staff (https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/guild-wars-2-the-first-year/). Wasn’t a lot of entry into that site done before game launch?

Still, they’re all pretty reasonably represented -- if you really don’t want to be "common" don’t play a human warrior.

As stated above, no class is either over/under played enough to make a difference. If you want to stand out create a odd mix. I run a Asuran Warrior, and in all my playing time, I have 1 or 2 other Asuran Warriors on my server. You could run a Charr Necromancer or a Sylvari Engineer using a flamethrower. Many weird and wonderful creations exist, its up to you to find them.

Has it occured to anyone that the race chart only goes to 99%? Lets hope for Anet’s sake that its not the person in payroll that put that chart together.

It’s probably because the actual figures include decimal places but (either automatically or manually) they were rounded down because 16% reads better than 16.43% and they didn’t think anyone would care that much about the missing 1%,
