Guild Wars 2

Hey fellow assassins and backstabbering backstabbers!

I wondered what other professions you like most beside the thief? Which ones are the most refreshing to you but are still as fun as the thief? Basically, what is your favorite alt and why?

I’d love to hear peoples opinions on this, so gimme’ yo’ opinions!

My favorite alt is my Guardian since they’re so strong in dungeons. This is also why I do progression fractals on my Guard instead of my Thief.

That being said, nothing is nearly as fun in just about every other aspect of the game (especially PvP). Switching to any other class instantly makes me miss the mobility of the thief. =P

Bunker guard or phantasm mesmer. So relaxing in pvp compared to thief.
Warrior if I need to carry a team

Mesmer (Generally interrupt, or condition).
Ele (Staff, or /D builds).

pro-thief, rabbit-thief, fast-thief, guardian-thief, range-thief, melee-thief…list goes on..

:)

Necromancer and warrior

the only classes that aren’t totally broken in someway lol

Taken a break from thief since the patch notes really even though I mainly used P/D I did like to swap to S/D for some diversity between the normal day every so often so swapped S/D thief for a Power Necro with Dagger/Focus – Staff.

And it’s actually really fun when you aren’t getting chased by a hoard of people after Karma, and need to watch out for Condi builds.

none… playing other classes makes me feel sad about thieves :/

Warrior because faceroll! :3

mobility warrior…
It’s basically what every thief wants to become when he’s grown up… :X

Eng… gets as much playtime as my thief does if not more

Highly flexible class with great aoe, tons of fun to play (warning may cause carpel).

Mesmer… played Mes so much it actually replaced Thief as my main.

Ranger I have the most fun playing as, but because the game is actually challenging not because theyre great

My only other lv80 is a guardian.. But I’m terrible at it so its basically a good looking, combat functional craft bot. Mesmer is kinda fun though.

Zerker Staff ele. Half-zerker Hammer warrior. Zerker Necro. I LOVE D-I-V-E-R-S-I-T-Y! But with thrill.

Necromancer. High health, long range fast effect AOE.

I do a power well build in WvW when I’m running with the pack. Use thief for roaming WvW, and everything else with 2 exceptions:

Do have an 80 warrior and guardian though, warrior is a Teq setup, and guardian is large group melee WvW setup (very recently made it to 80).

Seems like a lot of thieves like the necro. I personally like all three of the scholar classes. I just can’t really get into the soldier ones, you know, when your mains are elementalist and thief you kinda struggle to play a warrior or a guardian.

Staff Elementalist, with a balanced build (0/20/0/30/20). He does a bit of everything, and he’s built for medium to large group play. My thief is my main, but on WvW reset nights, I make a bigger contribution with the elementalist.

I also play a healway guardian, as it’s such a tremendous change of pace. You almost never die.

Necromancer, I love the idea of a tanky light armor class that’s philosophy is just to outlast your foe

My cute Guardian Sylvari cuz better armor than Thief and more build diversity.
Also cuz I can load a heavy Dark Souls influence onto him.
