Guild Wars 2

Alright! Cheers for your reply. :]

Hi there, I just started my first rev yesterday and I found them to be an amazing lot of fun… Until I actually started picking fights with veterans. I am fresh from ranger atm, so obviously I am spoiled by having a pet tanking for me – but I feel so incredibly squishy to the point where I just avoid fighting veterans.
I made my rev for PvP purposes, but I was hoping that they’d be fun / strong in solo content aswell. I have no idea what they’ll be like at level 80, which is why am asking…
1. Does rev do well in Maguuma content by themselves?
2. Would you recommend regular zerker setup for map exploring?
3. Which weapons / stances would you use? I was thinking of basically running my PvP setup with full zerk S/S and something… With dragon (once I reach herald) and assassin stance.

All tips are welcome, and all replies appreciated.

The biggest difference is how much time you have spare, really. I had to make this choice a few weeks ago, and decided that I will be crafting mine.
Crafting requires a lot of varied activity, which is fine by me. But most of all, it requires a lot of time farming.
If you have a lot of spare cash irl and don’t mind spending, by all means – go buy it. But I decided that farming the materials seemed more profitable than farming gold.
Happy hunting!

Hi there, am a veteran returning – but I would love to join as a student as my PvE experience in GW2 leaves much to be desired.
I have only done a single fractal… Once… Years ago. And I wish to learn more about them and farming them to get gear.
I play on EU, as a ranger.

Welcome! Hope you’ll have a great time with us :]

Hey, returning from a long break… Everyone I know stopped playing. If you play on EU, feel free to add me

Alright, thank you both very much for your replies.

Here’s my sylvari :]

Hi there!
I been running longbow more or less ever since I started playing. But the buff on the shortbow made me consider using that instead of my current LB. I tried to find some updated builds… But most topics of the matter that I could find is at least 2 years old.
I mostly farm around and about in Maguuma or run PvP (WvW or Arenas).

So the questions am having is: is LB or SB the superior in PvP right now? And is LB or SB better for solo-farming (map exploring, random event stuff etc)? What build would you suggest running?

Appreciate the help!
