Thanks for the feedback.
I am currently deciding between a ranger and an elementalist, not sure which one it will be yet. I actually had about a level 30 necro, but just got bored of it, may give it a chance again.

To the warrior, I kind of realize that warrior is what I am looking for, but I still refuse to play it due to a couple of things.
Mainly, warriors are kind of OP right now. Everyone who ever rolled a warrior and any other class knows it, somewhere deep in their hearts. I always disliked the most popular classes, just for the fact that so many players can play them, and excell at them with close to zero effort.
I mean, they have the best damage currently, they have the most viable builds, they have close to the best survivability etc. There is literally nothing they are not very good/best at.

Zaerp – https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/elementalist/My-PvE-level-80-Ele/first#post825360

I tried to get some feedback on it, kinda just got told ‘cool’ =S

DEKeyz – Lol not a problem, I was super excited about pistol/dagger back before BWE1 and kept it up until I hit level 42, then just noticed the shortbow was better for AoE and DE and keep pistol/dagger on weapon swap for 1v1 and champions where condition stacking can be more useful.

Thanks !
It seems interesting for sure, even thought it is more AoE oriented than I would like to.

I would also like to get some feedback on the ranged damage of a ranger, as he would be my next choice.
I know this belongs to the ranger section, but I cant help myself but to avoid it. In any class section, with the exception of warrior/guardian/thief, there is no one but trolls complaining how their class is the weakest.

Thanks for replies, I will certainly take a look at the elementalist.
I tried the ranger, but the longbow seem kind of slow and unresponsive.
Could you give me any hint of spec and gear you use for your elementalists ? I really prefer single target damage.
Also, dont get me wrong, I have nothing against builds with some condition damage, I just dont want to focus on it.

Hey there, I got really desperate on choosing my main class, so I am trying it here.
I leveled mesmer to 80, engineer to 70, and most of the other classes to 10-20, but still was unable to decide.

What I want from the class:

- ranged, raw, power based weapon to use in dungeons

- ability to dish out damage on par with other classes

You see, I am mainly a PvE guy, and I like to keep my distance. Due to condition damage having a cap and not working on objects, I really want a power based weapon.

So far I tried mesmers greatsword and engineers rifle and grenade kit. The issue with mesmer is the core mechanic of the class. They attack by summoning phantasms, but these tends to get destroyed by AoE, leaving the mesmer struggling behind.

Engineers rifle is not really a ranged weapon, and I found myself to hate grenades, because of the need to constantly target spells, which is kind of annoying when you have to kite at the same time.

I refuse to play warriors, I just hate the class lore (or the lack of one).
