So I’ve been in the hardcore seen in GW2 (before it was esports unfortunately) and I’m curious what would be the best class to invest my time in to have the most fun and still be very strong. I have alot of time on mesmer/guardian/thief/necro which it seems that 3/4 are meta currently and mesmer is meta in EU. So I’m not entirely sure what to actually choose to invest my time in as I love mesmer but it seems to be able to be 1 shot by a good thief and no other class has that except mesmer.

Anyway if you didn’t want to read that paragraph, what’s a good class to run now that will be fun still after the trait reworks.

Thief and mesmer. They’re getting huge buffs and don’t think they’ll be out of meta any soon.

Thief is designed to have a death-grip on the burst-roamer goal, and ANet won’t let anybody else come to the party that can truly compete. It has been required on every truly competitive team, forever, and that is not going to change. It is certainly a safe bet.

However, if you are soloQ-ing, have a backup like warrior in-case you get stuck on a team with a bunch of other thieves. They don’t scale too well past the first one.

if you learn warrior and thief and switch when appropriate you should have a good time.

Only do this if you don’t care about rewards/records/mmr/dishonor (yet to do implemented). Apparently, you automatically make yourself and your party deserters by switching characters after seeing your team layout.

Thief is a safe bet for years and years to pass and to come, probably. Engi is also a safe bet, i would say.

Yes, top EU teams plays mesmers. They’re getting huge buffs, both mesmer and thief. The reason why people don’t want to play it is because of thieves.
