Guild Wars 2

Made it to 12 Last night, enjoying the theif so far, finding out what weapon combo I enjoy (really enjoying d/d or s/p for the cleave). That being said was having some issue as I hadnt bought any weapon upgrades (couldnt figure out which vendor, since found a spreadsheet), I ended up buying some on the AH cheap (was a good experience). I have 7k karma so really no excuse tonight to not run around and upgrade my gear. I also am going to plug the new tips and tricks, once I read that and then applied it to my game play, really helped to improve/enhance things. Some of the story quests are abit of a pita though as you dont get help and force you to be same lvl.

Thanks for the help everyone.

I feel like leaning back towards theif, really fits to my play style and I’ve played several games with active combat so I know how to avoid “the shiz”

Hey,

I am just starting to play the game likely tonight (waiting on a friend to get back from vaca to select home server).

My friend is playing an engineer and I am looking for something to supplement his choice (I imagine we will be playing 80% PVE 20% PVP or thereabouts).

Initial thought was Theif as I have actively played a rogue for several years in WoW and played melee characters in other games. The main thing turning me away from this is threads I am reading about contention around PVE groups and Theifs and just the general community feeling towards the class (I know the forums are not always the best source, but the only one I currently have). Secondary thought was necro as I enjoy a good summoner (thought I have been hearing mixed reviews on the end game viability of summons). Third thought was mesmer as people generally gave good reviews on the class and it seems to have stronger more end game viable summons.

Would love some feedback on this, I can hit-up the individual forums for build advice afterwards but if you want to include, it is also appreciated.

Thanks,

Gorf
