Guild Wars 2

Vadeil.3924:

Necromancer, I was able to solo HoT story much easier then my ranger. I actually needed to party for the final chapter of HoT on my ranger. The final chapter on my necro took quite A bit of time I only died once because of the rock toss while gliding.

I don’t have HoT… so being able to solo that doesn’t matter to me. I was looking for the non expansion GW2

Ardenwolfe.8590:

Ranger is the best solo class in the game for PvE. Necromancer and mesmer are also good, but the ranger is still best for solo play in PvE from level one to level eighty. And that class does everything you mentioned with ease.

Is there a specific set up that should run? Weapons and pets?

I am looking for a solid class to solo GW2 with. I have some experience and do not have HoT expansion (mainly because I dont want to spend the money on it being a grad student). Any helpful tips would be great. I mainly play alone and very infrequently. I just want easy to clear mobs, hero points, map completion, and any veterans or champs that come up. Thanks.
