Guild Wars 2

So I quit over a month ago because I didnt like how ANet was 100% ignoring Necros by not fixing the 100% useless minions. It seems that even after a month they still refuse to fix them so I figure I will just reroll to a new class.

I would prefer something that will be able to handle soloing even at higher levels without having to rely on heavy kiting. I tried Guardian and didnt like it but would like a class that has some decent self healing and also doesnt take for ever to kill things.

It sounds like you do enjoy pet classes. Why not try a Ranger traited heavily into survivability and damage? You’ll need to play with different pets to identify which will work better for your playstyle – but there are several ‘tanky/healy’ options.

With certain weapons instead of kiting you’ll simply have a 1 click ‘spring backwards’ (or jump around to the back of your current enemy) that you can use in conjunction with forcing your pet to attack the new enemy allowing you to simply stand and fire for the most part. You’ll just need to be a lot more aware of your surroundings to make sure that you’re not springing back or forward into a worse mess (because targetting works in large part with the direction that you’re firing in addtion to the specific target that you’re firing at – so it can be easy to pull additional mobs if you’re not paying attention.

Neco out does the ranger when it comes to the pet class .I got lv 80 Neco and a lv 68 Ranger and the neco just has much more depth and skill involved in fighting . Once you get your Elite you can use flesh golem as your pet which out tanks out damages any 2 rangers pets put together but he just so much dumber wait thats not right its 10 x Dumber ! ! ! ! ! ! ! but you can work around that . The problem not so much the pets with the ranger its with sb spam1 which is about the only good attack skill when using a pet. The rest are just to slow or non offensive which means you pets going to die faster as neco can melt down groups of enemy one after the other with his marks marks and wells. I still love playing my ranger everyday but out of the two pat classes is trailing far behind the Neco.

I now you said you dont like kiting ..but if you spec condition/toughness then a Mesmer can be a really fun close range brawler ..and although its not a full on pet class ..its clones and phantams are key to success.
