Guild Wars 2

I get terrible lag spikes at peak times but I live in a small Canadian town so my internet sucks. Too often I’ll be fighting 1v1 and then lag spike to death. Can’t complain about it either because then you look like a kitten saying “I died cause of lag”

Nice I was looking for something like this!

So I just hit 80 and googled some meta builds, got full exotic gear with runes/sigils. Went into WvW and flat out got owned by everyone. I know there will be a learning curve and I’m not expecting to be the best or good right away, but it seemed I was just super squishy and couldn’t get my burst in before I get drained, have to heal/stealth, reappear to have the exact same thing happen. I’ve pvp’d successfully in other mmo’s (I’d call myself a B+ player at best), but GW is different from any other mmo’s I’ve played. Any tips for a newb looking to shorten the learning curve?

Just bought the game, waiting for it to install. What class is the most fun to play? I realize skill/talent is the most important factor in determining how good a player is, but in my experience with SWTOR, some classes were much easier to play than others. I pvp a lot but also like to pve from time to time. In TOR I played a lot of sentinel (arguably the hardest pvp class) and a lot of sorcerer (arguably the easiest pvp class) and found sentinel a lot more fun. As much fun as it is facerolling people with the FOTM class/build, it’s a lot more satisfying outplaying someone while playing a more difficult class. Are the classes fairly balanced in this game? What class has the hardest rotation to master? I realize this is a nub question, but if you’re going to respond with some bs like “use the search engine” don’t waste your time posting.
