Guild Wars 2

Need help on a couple things. First off I’m new to gw2 and I love it and I’ve tried every class to level 10. In mmos however I like to make sure the class I decide to main isnt considered broken. And BTW I love the necro class so basically just curious to what I’m getting into. First off are necros desired in dungeons and fractals. Second how are they at soloing. And thirdly how are they at PvP. And which weapon combos are best for pve leveling up and PvP. And plz forgive typos as I’m writing this from my phone. Thanks in advance for all the help!

Dungeons/fractals: you will never see a group looking for a necro. It’s not like this class is bad at it, but ppl often look for specific team compositions, in which case necros are most likely not the most “desired”.

Soloing: depends on the content.

PvP: 2 scenarios:
1. You fight alone against 2+ ppl: if they are decent you won’t survive, while other classes have a chance at escaping with mobility skills or stealth. Underpowered.
2. 1v1: atm craaazy overpowered!
Especially in WvW where you can use PvE gear and nourishment.
And it’s not just the infamous Dhuum/Terror builds, but certain powerbuilds as well.
I run a build that works without Dhuumfire, but on very rare occasions I shift some trait points around to get it. So I don’t always run it, but when I do I feel embarrassed by how ridiculously overpowered it is.

Weapons for PvE lvling: stick with power stats and traits, so everything but the scepter.

..for PvP: depends on the build, so far I’ve seen every possible weapon combo in viable builds.
