I haven’t made a necro for personal reasons, but as I understand it is a very different class then in GW1. You use minions as tanks and for the rest your mainly a condition spammer. The damage output is very nice and the survivability is good.
Ele’s is my first character and they are very very squishy. They do however make it up with loads of damage.
Engineer is my second love and my biggest. They are the special ops in gw2. They can do virtually anything reasonable ok and good. High damage, good support, loads of conditions, fulling pve with stationary tanks, etc. The main problem with the engineer is that it can do soo much, but you need to specialise (atleast before the fight) and it takes time to unlock and know all the turrets. kits and possibillity’s.
You are asking bout builds. I would highly recommend looking outsaide this forum for it. some external websites specialise on it. But more important I would advise not to go there and find it out your own. A character need to be made your own. some general builds are nice, but it doesn’t make too much difference and it requires a special playstyle.
To really assist you in your quest I would ask you to tell what you dislike bout the ranger and what you hope to find in the necro, engineer or ele.
It’s just i feel ranger is a bit underwhelming; my pet dies very quick, and i just don’t put out that much damage to compensate. I play a condition build, so i lay a lot of traps/ use shortbow and axe/warhorn.
Maybe i need to stick with her a bit more, i dunno
Hey guys
I’ve recently hit 30 with my ranger; looking to roll another toon because ranger just isn’t for me.
Necro and Engi classes have caught my eye and I wanted to know the pros and cons for each class
Also, what are some standard builds for each class?
EDIT: I’m also thinking about rolling an ele, but haven’t been reading many positive things about the class <_<

Thanks for the advice guys!
I made myself a ranger, and warrior toon so i’ll see which i like better.
I know GW2 just chucks you into the deep end…. but it’s so good i couldn’t resist buying it! <_<
Hey guys
So basically i’ve never really been interested in MMORPG’s, but GW2 really caught my attention so i bought it.
Obviously i have little experience playing games like this, so naturally i’m struggling to grasp the mechanics of this game.
First i made a Necro; got to level 7 and got really bored of it. Just not my type of character.
I then made a Guardian, now level 11 and i really don’t like it’s playstyle either. Managing all my Signets + heals (which mind you, i don’t really have a large variety yet and im already struggling) made me sorta shy away from continuing to level it up.
So i’m hoping 3rd time lucky works a charm!
Does anyone have any suggestions on what class is noob friendly, doesn’t have a crap tonne of mechanics that i need to be familiar with to play them successfully, and any builds for them/ traits/ skills i should level etc etc?
All help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated ^^
