All professions can play melee, just typically a bit tougher.

If you want to stick to them like glue you can try thief, they have a lot of tools that will teleport you to your opponant, then teleport away, then back, and ahh where the hell did the little bugger go?, so yeah, they can be interesting.

Melee is inevitable, and the design of the various profs take that into account. So every prof can be played in melee effectively.

I’ve tried out all the classes to various degrees, and yes, every class has strong melee builds. Honestly my favorite class to play melee has been Sword/Dagger Ranger, (Greatsword was also pretty good). Your natural skill rotation causes you to stick to them very well, you just have to be careful to not accidentally go flying off a cliff. A lot of people find that really frustrating so you’ll just have to try everything out and see what you like.

If you haven’t already, you can enter the PvP lobby with any character and try out builds. So go ahead and make characters that you think might be interesting and see how it feels for yourself in heart of the mists.

Nades are far more accurate in melee, easy to hit targets with all 3, where at range that’s a rarity on a moving target even with good aim. Then you also have skills like bombkit, acid bomb, prybar, or jump shot that are more melee range abilities. (jump shot can be done at range jumping to target but then they don’t take the initial damage).

Meta Engi’s in both PVE and PVP are set up to do both melee and ranged damage at the same time, the melee is better of course, but point being they have the option to drop back to range if needed. General rule of thumb in PVP is if your opponent wants to melee, you range him, if he wants to range you, you melee him.

Thief sword/dagger have lot of escape , evade but not rly good dmg as dagger/dagger. Found warrior axe/axe rly fun but ws range oponent u have no chanse in low lvl with not full skills. Cant understand how guardians are good in pvp. I cant deal enoth good dmg with them. Ele dya elso fast, u dont even have chanse to deal enoth dmg. More dont tryed but i think i will stick with chief or warrior for begin:)
