I just can’t decide which one should i go for, mostly for PvP and WvW. I already have lvl 80 Warrior, Elementalist (will be deleted soon, too complicated) and Necromancer. I enjoy Warrior and Necro and hate being Ele: doesn’t suit my playstyle.

Now i would like to try Thief or Guardian, but i don’t know what are procs and cons of these too professions.
I created both of them, lvl 2, and sent them to Mists. As a Guardian my dmg is just insane even if i don’t know what i’m doing lol, while Thief dmg, surprisingly, seems very very low. Like that i need three or four times longer to kill anything …
I would like to go with something which is easier, because i’m more of a casual player. That’s why i can’t stand on Elementalist which is disgustingly hard and boring to play with millions of keybinds, like that i need 20 fingers and every 2 seconds new Attunement lol.
Thief and Guardian both looks much easier. Help me pick up the one which is easier.
Sorry for english …

Thief needs quick reactions and playing fast so if I were you (taking into account what you said) I’d go for the guardian because the pace is a bit slower.
Also playing thief requires more knowledge about the map : where you can TP, etc. so if you are casual, it’s better to focus on positionning and rotations instead of learning the map.

Notice that these classes both need skill.

Wait you will delete elementalist? Too complicated? Try smashing buttons and change attunements you will be fine, burning and stuff will do their part. Thief is also very good, but dont play guardian. It sucks in pvp.

Hmm, that depends of your build and weapons. If i go D/P + Sb or P/D it is very simple playstyle: D/P #3, + autoattack, #2 when target is below 50% health, Stealth, Steal … I mean it’s a lot of fun but dmg is a bit low. But i feel like i’m unkillable: Weakness and Blindness on my target almost all the time, + great healing and condition removal. I can heal for each initiative spend.
