Oh don’t get me wrong, I am a huge fan of control. I mean… I played a shaman, it was the only way to go, kiting and healing. I’ll have to take another look at the Guardian, I guess. Thanks for the help

Best support class?

I’ve always loved playing support classes. When I played WoW, I was a disc priest before it was cool, played resto shaman, and even a resto druid for a while. With my warrior there, I was specced prot and loved harassing the hell out of people, or just keeping them off of my healers/squishy dps. In WAR, I played a warrior priest as a frontline healer, keeping people up, and played tanks (again) doing the same thing, but much more effectively. So far GW2 is a ton of fun- I’ve been leveling some classes up to get a feel for the game, but I can’t seem to find a really good support class. My first guess was Mesmer, but they still seem pretty damage oriented.

So my question: do I need to play Mesmer longer, or is there another good support class out there?

PS: Please don’t say every class can play as support, I know the warriors shouts are awesome, but I’m looking for a healer/buffer/debuffer type.

PPS: In TF2 I play medic/engie a lot. That sandvich is a spy!

PPPS: I appreciate any help you can give!
