Guild Wars 2

Well I was always more of a Magic/Long range user. I tried out the Ele but it just didn’t suit me. I like the Necromancer. I really wanted to try the Mesmar but I couldn’t find a build that suits me. I might give the Eng or Ranger a go since that interests me.

In terms of play style I am more of a Tactical, Control, Dps, and Lockdown type of guy.

I like controlling what my opponent can and can’t do.( Both PvP and PvE)

Any other thoughts on that? Maybe builds/Classes that will compliment that play style?

I’m new this guild wars 2 however I find it daunting to find what I actually want to play as to farm items to use for any other characters that I would want to create in the future.

Since I am new I am not looking into PvP yet but I would like to have class and build that can farm and do PvE effectively. For example, in other mmo’s some classes where good at farming and making money from it, some were just power houses meant for PvP and bossing, other where meant as support.

To put it simple, I am looking for a class and build that I can lvl to 80 to amass items and gold(Farming, Killing bosses, etc..) so I can use for my next and following characters.

Any ideas on what would be best plus any tips for a new player?

Thanks in advance.
