Guild Wars 2

so i’m not new to the game but I’ve been playing tank/bunker builds now i want to try a new way to play so should i play dps or support and what class

In Guild wars the system is set up so that you do everything yourself. There isn’t a trinity in the traditional sense. You won’t be tanking, but you can provide support through the use of well timed skills and abilities.

All classes have a glass build, some are better at direct damage with berserker gear, others with conditions through sinister gear.

If you want to play a dps support build I would suggest looking at either the Guardian or elementalist. As both bring a wide range of support to the group, the elementalist more so through dps and furry with some blasting for might or healing through fire and water fields.

The guardian will provide projectile defense, blinds and blocks, which can negate all damage rather then heal it. As well as providing access to stability for the group when fights require it.

Both are very good at condition cleansing which can be very important depending on the content you are doing.

GW2 doesnt have the holy trinity. You are responsible for pulling your own weight and for contributing in helping others.

Here is a quick 4min video that will show you how all 8 classes play like if you want to get an idea of what to expect from each class played to it’s potential:

Pick whatever best fits your style and theme.
