Guild Wars 2

Hi Friends,

I have a wee bit of a dilemma. I have been playing GW2 off and on for the past few months and after finally being bored to death of WoW and of course my RL mates “harassing” me, I’ve finally decided to sit down and level a character to the max level.

The problem is I am having a tough time deciding on a character to level. I have leveled a Ranger to 43 and a Guardian to 30.

Unfortunately, I have begun to lose interest in these characters as I don’t find it a challenge and (too be honest) I am finding the play style of both, quite boring. It’s been hard to push myself to keep playing either.

As much as my friends hate me rerolling, I’m still trying to find the class that will suit me. My friends have level 80s are are happy to play with me, but they want me up for doing higher level content together.

So I’m stuck on deciding between a thief or a mesmer. I’d be willing to listen to any other advice on other classes… I mainly would like a class that is great for soloing in both PvE and WvW / BGs (I think you guys call it scenario pvp?) and would work well when paired with an elementalist and engineer (for both WvW and PvE).

Also, what is a good race for either? Both my Ranger and Guard are norns (love the look/armor + viking-esque background is awesome) so I was thinking that maybe a change of class and scenery might be called for?

Any advice is appreciated.
