I’ve always struggled with finding a Profession that fits my playstyle in Guild Wars 2, so I figured I would ask the community for help in finding the Profession that fits my playstyle the most. I think the best way to do this would be to list some of my other favorite classes or playstyles from other games and try and match them to the ones here.
. The first game series will be Borderlands. In both one and two I enjoyed playing the Siren and liked offering extra shield capacity and elemental chance to my teammates. I also enjoyed the High damage and power of Jakobs weapons.
.Second will be Planet Side 2, here I enjoy playing engineer and like the ability to take out vehicles and laydown supportive turret fire (somewhat the same in battlefield).
.Third and final is Dark Souls (1 and 2). In these games I preferred a more balanced playstyle. I liked the ability to doge quickly and attack fast, but at the same time I also enjoyed some armor and ability to take hits.
The profession that I’m thinking would suit me most is Engineer; however I have played only three Professions to 80 and most of my time has been spent on my current main Ranger. I hope I have provided a decent amount of information to my playstyle. Any help finding the right Profession to suit my playstyle would be greatly appreciated.
(Main) Ranger: Natura Lupus 80 (1300 Hrs)
Hours Played: 3000
If you’re leaning towards Engi because you liked the turrets in Planetside, then you might want to second guess that choice. With the exception of Healing Turret, turrets are rarely used.
