Guild Wars 2

I was finally able to find a pvp guild that tpvped at the same time as my crazy schedule allowes me. Anyways I am new to TPVP and have done a few matches so far, and the team is still trying to find a set up.

Can anyone give me a rundown of what a normal team consists of?

Like how many bunkers per team? how many roamers? And any other positions that I’m missing? It would be a big help.

1-2 bunkers, 1-2 roamers, 1-2 burst in any general fashion. Typically your roamers are the most mobile with the most supportive/CC skills, your burst have the best damage + lockdown with some mobility, bunkers just hold a point as long as possible, until a roamer or burst comes to help.

This is not the end all be all, but is the standard at the moment.

1 Guardian
1 other bunker (usually a second guardian)
1 mesmer
1 roamer (usually thief)
1 support dps (thief, necro, warrior, ele, sometimes ranger)

There is a lot of variety possible, but I personally see this setup more than any other.

Ok thanks for the information I appreciate it.

At any time are there more than 1 bunkers put on a node by the same team? My team was running 2 bunkers mid (I’m one of them) 1 bunker home and 2 dps/roamers. Does this sound like a good set up?

2 Guardians, 1 necro, 1 mesmer then whatever u want for a 5th good luck!

if you want an opening strategy

1 guard and necro go mid
mesmer portal defends home point
the 2nd guardian assaults far point
and ur 5th either goes mid with the necro and guard or assaults far point with the other guard.
