Hi guys, I need some help playing my guardian in PvE.
my main is an engineer, and any time a mob gets close to me, I dodge away. Seems simple – keep range keep the pew pews coming.
But when I’m on my guardian, or any melee class, I seem to get roflestomped. I’m 63 on my guardian, and I used to love him, but as I’ve gotten higher I just can’t seem to grasp the concept of close ranged fighting in this game. How do you stay alive? I’ve tried a number of builds – I want to be DPS, not a tank – but I can’t stay alive even with that build. The idea of dodging close enemies with this toon seems counter productive.
So I need some help from you guys. In PvE – How do I play this guy?
(please don’t flame the noob.)

So I feel like reading someting else other than the irrational kittening I’m seeing on these forums.
I am asura engineer – and I love playing him. However, I’m too kitten small; I can bearly see the gear I’ve gotten and now I’m starting to get really irritated by it. Do you think ANet will ever impliment a way to change your race? Or at least an option to go back in an adjust your characters features? I would make my Asura as tall as possible instead of tiny (maybe a hair change too). I would relly enjoy this option… I’ll even drop some gems to have the ability.
What’s your guys’ thoughts?
There was no gap between Exotics and Legendaries.
There was no stat gap. There was no achievement gap.
According to you or the developers. The developers felt there was a gap. Legendary still is the top – they haven’t added on top of that gear. There still isn’t a treadmill.
Oh my goodness… he really believes what he is saying.
I guess I just don’t get as upset as you guys. I still have fun on a game that isn’t stringing me a long for subscription fees. I’m just playing the game. However the devs decide to take it – I’m just playing. I have a lot of other things to really be stressed about, and regardless how GW2 ends up that is still me escape from the real world – I’m not going to compound my life with this kind of stuff. Why shouldn’t I take the devs by their word? I’m still not seeing a treadmill, and frankly, if there was one like in WoW, at least I’m not doing it to pay them more money.
I don’t know. I’m taking my information from their post here:
I guess I understand that there isn’t legendary armor out yet.

It seems to me that the gear level “Legendary” is the top tier currently and after the 16th. The addition of Ascended gear fills a large gap between Exotics and Legendary. We still have our gear cap at Legendary. My guess is they aren’t trying to replace those.
I’m pretty sure you got the title wrong. It should read “This is now another stagnant MMO” because they are now officially offering identical mechanics to their competitors who have had years of perfect the art of vertical gear-based progression.
Well that wasn’t the original title to this thread. It was changed.
I created this thread to understand what you guys are really looking for. GW1 had these new armor upgrades (I forget the name). Just because they weren’t in the initial GW2 game doesn’t mean there will be a treadmill. It just means they have introduced it earlier than expected so that they can create the dungeons you are looking for. GW1 was an MMO, it just played differently than any other because the entire game was mostly an instance. What made the endgame of GW1 so great? Honest question.
What do you GW1 guys want from the game then? How are to keep a MMO fresh without introducing new content and gear? I’m just so confused by this – that’s what MMOs do. They continue to evolve. GW1 did change and it did have new gear. they had 5 (or something) expansions and I know I wasn’t sitting in the gear I got from vanilla GW1 that whole time.
Here are two complaints I see all the freaking time:
1) There is nothing to do once you’re level 80.
2) I wanted to get away from gear grinds and just play.
Here is the problem – this is a MMO. The world does not, and will not stay stagnant. You guys can’t have it both ways. You can’t have a game where you get the best gear and then there is nothing to go to from there AND a game that continues to expand on itself by creating new content and, inevitably, gear.
Everyone here is complaining about the POSSIBILITY of a gear grind – why are you complaining? Isn’t this what you guys are so adamant about? “There is nothing to do when I get to 80”. Well you know what? Now there will be. What is it you guys are really looking for from ANet? I’m personally very happy with the game. I feel it has nailed everything that I’m looking for in a MMO. Bring on the content, and bring on more gear and dungeons. Keep on keeping in fresh ANet.
If you think this game is socially inviting…. you’re delusional.
I spent 60 bucks tried to play… everyone complained about imbalance no end game… i get closer to 80 and realize this and by the time I hit 72 my guild roster is empty every week.
Seems to me, by your negativity, that you don’t want to be playing the game. No one is forcing you. You’re just another person that feels the need to force feed your bad experience on the rest of us. We are having fun, and apparently nothing we say to you will change your opinion. Get to 80 – don’t get to 80 – I don’t care, but why come in here and complain.
