Guild Wars 2 Forum

Class survey and trends

Hello, my account name as you all can see is erakus, I am currently in the middle of a statistics course, and for the semester long project, and we were given complete control over the project. So I decided to focus it on the game that I am currently playing for large amounts of time, guild wars 2. The subject, is to figures why people play or don’t play each classes, and to find trends within the information. To collect the information I am seeking, I have created a 5 minute survey that I am hoping you the members of the community will answer. Link Is below. For those curious about the results I will post them after I am done.
TLDR; Statistics course 5 minutes survey I would like answered to find trends amongst the played classes.

lol Necro = No Meta. Thief= Thief (spvp). It’s weird though I thought Necros are one of the toughest class to fight (1v1).

Does it matter to won those? If dueling was a mode necro would always lose due to lack of starting LF?

Where’s the ranking for the number of players that main a Profession?

From what I can see, the top 3 professions that players main are Ele, Mesmer, and Thief — yet Thief is mostly ignored by Dev.

I really hate ArenaNet’s balance team sometimes.

Interesting, according to this survey thief is more common than warrior and guardian.

Sure. Why not. I play my warrior and thief equally, but I have an engie I rarely play.

I listed warrior as alt though.
