Lost Returning player, stupid questions

Current server is NA Crystal Desert
Haven’t played in 4 years only played a few months after launch very lightly i only ever had a 44 necro and 52 ranger and a bunch of lower level alts I was probably trying to get a feel for the game and got lost in other games out, and got really into firefall before they ruined it and gradually forgot about gw2. I’ve currently been kitten ing around on my necro, exploring the map but not really knowing wth I’m doing I should really play on my day off with more time.

REGARDLESS I’m lost i’ve got a necro and ranger and don’t know how to play either, i’m basically fresh into core, and havent even considered HOT and POF is right around the Corner.

I did crafting cause i always like crafting my own gear, 400 chef, 300 something jeweler, 170 tailor, 162 leather I can buy gems and powerlevel this crap I’m not too worried about crafting atm ill worry about it later.

Right the stupid questions I’m not gonna ask what class to play cause frankly reading the forums that meta seems to change every month so I think i’ll just try working on getting a few classes to 80 first.

1. I know alot of stuff like gear or costumes dyes etc is account bound/shared, is map exploration also account shared or individual to each character?
2. I’m sitting on 6 sets of 4 birthday presents so i can currently get all characters to 40 should i do that and save some small measure of time for myself?
3. if I bought a set of unbreakable tools is it bound to 1 character or can i swap it through the bank to a different alt?
4. i’ve got 2 or maybe 3 lv 80 boosts should i throw it on one alt just to get the ability to glide i’d think it would make the game easier to traverse?
5. is there anything from the black lion trading company cash shop thing that is a must have, i saw unbreakable tools, and it looked like a banker robot and maybe some kind of remote black lion item. Are they worth getting? And if so what would you suggest?
6. Are dungeons necessary or just a way to make money/get skins?
7.Is there an actual good way of making money leveling up, or just when your 80 with gear?
8. OK I think i’ve ran out of questions for now, but if yall have any tips or tricks ya think would help me get back into the game or some resource sites youd wish to share I’d greatly appreciate it TY for your time.

Ugh i’m getting some conflicting things about necro some people are saying itll be good for pof and i’ve read other threads where people wont take you into raids. I kinda don’t wanna level a class thats being kicked to the curb so to speak. I got to 45 today only played a few hours exploring, mind you i havnt played since release, my gears crap, and virtually no money think i spent most of it crafting. I have no qualms about buying gems and getting gold to get myself started in the game. Also like i’ve said im sure my gears subpar, and i have no idea as far as skills i’ll have to look into this more thoroughly.

Long story short when the game first came out I was juggling a few games this got pushed to the side and I forgot about it. My brother started playing hot again so I’m like why not.
Highest is 52 ranger 400 chef 16x leather
Nero 44 322 jeweler 16x tailor
I also started a thief mesmer and ele but lv in teens. The listed classes have 4 birthday presents each idk what those are but thought is say.

Think ranger was getting her butt kicked couldn’t find a good Wep combo and started the Necro idk can’t remember. Kinda of an altoholic but trying to find a class I like and that’s useful end game advice here could save time. I’m usually pretty big into crafting and gathering so I’ll max all of them just because also a hoarder of mats old habits die hard.

Sorry getting off topic what classes are useful end game or wvw, what crafting profession is most useful or if you plan to level them all which to level first, is getting the crafting license for 2 more crafting skills worth it if you’re into crafting. Also what things from the cash shop aside from bank bag and character slots are useful to get to help you enjoy the game more like the unbreakable or unbound magic gathering tools or something idk what they do tbh or the mail or black lion remote use thing. Sorry for being scattered brained at lunch at work overnight typing on phone. I’d really appreciate feedback I really want to get back into an mmo and this looks promising.
