Guild Wars 2

I’ve played over 100 hours now and I still haven’t decided on a class. Here are the things I’d like to see in a class because well I’m a fussy person.
—Easy to learn, hard to master
—Good in PVP roaming but not useless in solo PVE (I’ve tried warrior but in PVP I find it hard)
—Not with complicated traits, skills etc
—Full of fun to play
Thanks in advance!

Hi there OP,

I can only advice the guardian so far, since I have played Guard since I started. However I dont know anything about guard-WvW roaming.

- Easy to learn, hard to master:
I found the guard easy to play with because of all the boons. The mastering comes with adapting to certain situations.

Do you need..

• An extra block—Retreat
• reflects — Wall of reflection
• condition cleansing — Smite condition, purging flames)

ect ect ect.

- PvP
Tbh, Iám not good in pvp, but I found the guard extremely usefull, even if it’s just for point-holding and trolling or buffing allies and calling targets. But again, I fail at PvP.

- WvW roaming
I can’t help you much on this point since I avoid WvW even more than I avoid PVP. I do think Guard is nice to use during solo WvW roaming.

- Solo PVE
I think that the guard is a good class for solo PVE, (do you mean dungeon solo-ing as well?) because of all the boons and blocks and such the Guard can pretty much survive on it’s own.

- Traits & Skills
I dont think the guard’s skills and traits are to difficult to understand.

- Fun to play?
Well this is a grey area, what do you by “fun to play”?
I like the class because adapting to certain situations (if we’re talking about dungeon PUG runs) can really make or break the party.

Certain situations in dungeons where the Guard (I think) may shine:

- heavy conditions—->multiple condi cleanses;
- crowd controls—-> multiple party stabilities;
- Projectiles—->reflects, absorbs;
- Heavy melee damage —-> blinds, blocks;
- Downed Ally—-> multi block rezz;

This is just personal experience, hope it’s helpfull.
