Guild Wars 2

Hey,

I have been level 80 for about a month now & am kind of unimpressed with the end game, particularly the fact that yeah, I can farm cool gear, but what for? I can’t use it for anything except to do the same dungeons I did already with crappy gear.

And the dungeons are not very fun. Guild or pug, it’s usually pretty terrible, with having to run back repeatedly, my group members dying, no one wants to help downed players, etc.. The bosses don’t seem really special. Fractals are fun but as soon as one person disconnects, it’s pretty much over, and that happens just about every time. Orr Karma gear and WvWvW gear is useless for my class. WvWvW is nothing but a bunch of people complaining, and you spend most of the time just running around the map. WvWvW is less fun than dungeons.

I can spend tons of time farming a legendary weapon – but what for?? Bragging rights? I don’t enjoy stroking my kitten. I like to have fun.

Tons of people like this game.. and I want to.. but I feel so meh about it.. So what is it that I’m missing?

hello!

i bought a “gold rabbit chest” and received a stack of 5 chests. not sure if that is intentional. i opened them all. i did teleport out of the mists. the majority of the items that were in my inventory are now gone.

any thoughts?

Please, stop trying to make Guild Wars 2 into World of Warcraft. You most likely quit WoW already, and for a reason.

Sure, WoW has some good ideas, but it’s very frustrating when the community of every new MMO cries, “WoW has SuchAndSuchFeature, why doesn’t your game have it?”

Don’t you want something original? If not, shouldn’t you be playing WoW right now?

After playing both past 20 and PvPing with both, I would have to say Engineer, Guardian or the two closest classes your going to get to a pure healer. With that said niether are actually dedicated heals, I found Engineers have the most healing type abilities while Guardian have the most mitigation (shields ect.) type abilities. I love playing heals myself and was actually quite dissapointed that pure heals were not part of the game, I love the game don’t get me wrong but the dissapointment was there.

I’m hoping in future expansions they bring back the monk, some of us believe it or not do enjoy playing a true support class.

i hope so too. i play support in everything.. down to MOBA games on smite and LoL.

Actually Mesmers can heal, If you put 20 points in Inspiration you can pick the trait ‘Heal allies when you cast a mantra’ if you then for example pick ‘Mantra of Recovery’ every time you finish channelling that ability it will heal allies for a decent bit when they are close enough to you.

I’ve been using this setup in dungeons. You also get ‘Phantasms grant regeneration to nearby allies’ in that same trait line. Haven’t gotten to the 30 point traits yet. Regardless they are able to heal somewhat.

that seems pretty epic!! i have to try THIS first..

thank you very much guys. disappointing that there is no dedicated healer, but it makes more sense for the game.

i think i will try a guardian and if i don’t like it, i will stick to the elementalist.

thanks

Hello

I first wanted to play a Mesmer because of how awesome they look.. but I don’t think they heal, and that’s what I want to do in PvP.

So are Elementalists a viable healing class? I noticed they offer support and heals through their water attunement. Also are guardians a healing class? Any other healer I don’t know about?

I sure miss my Monk class from the original GW.
