A mesmer fits most of your criteria. They are
- good and range and melee
- have great skills which are at least decent to look at
- Not so good in PvP (although that’s the only class I play in PvP and I do ok)
- Can be adapted to do almost any role
- No Pets (but they have clones and phantasms)
- Portal is the king of jumping puzzles
- Are very very useful in WvW.

Although you should know that right now, necromancers and rangers rule PvP. But I suspect that will change with the next balance patch.
In PvP, rangers in particular seem to either be terrible or overpowered and nothing in between.

Mesmer is very entertaining once you get to 80 in WvW and PvE, and can be really tricky to play against in SPvP. Problem is I have never been more miserable in actually leveling up a class than I was with my Mesmer. Oy vey.
But don’t let that stop you, it’s great fun.

Are you in full berserker gear using sword/warhorn w/spotter and traited frost spirit?
Quoted for emphasis because it’s the best question to ask about ranger when people say “ranger are kitten!”
Frór (yes, with the accent!)
