There’s really no class that is overpopular in terms of preventing you from finding a group for anything.
For support/healer, I’d say Guardian primarily since you can run a full damage melee build and still bring more defensive support than most other classes can in full support gear. However, if they don’t like melee, then Elementalist is your best bet.
For you, I’d say that Thief or Ranger are best if you want a ranged character. Rangers actually tend to be best suited as melee in PvE dungeon groups if you want to follow the meta builds, but they also do fine with a longbow. In PvP, they do great as ranged snipers. Thieves are pretty much always best melee, but they are the pinnacle of the nimble high dps class.
Hope that helps. Also, welcome to GW2!
Thanks man!! After some research and these posts, I going thief for sure!!
So were both set, just waiting for the download to finish
Ok.. Sounds pretty good, thanks for the replies, excited to get going. I think I might go Thief, or Ranger, my friend will go gaurdian for sure after some research and your replies.. My on the other hand I’m still up in the air deciding Ranger or Thief.
I like ranged stuff for sure, but could care less about a pet or not. and I feel there will be many many rangers running around. I like a little uniqueness
As long as thief has no magic, I HATE MAGIC stuff, lol
thanks again
Literally not even finished yet..
Friend and I play about 2 or so hours every night, we play SWOTR right now (quitting acutally) played LOL, played planet side and WOW.
Now trying guild wars..
in a nut shell. He likes to be a healer/support and I like to do med. to heavy damage, I hate magic and like somewhat nimble characters.
I was thinking at first to go with Hunter for me as I play Sniper on Starwars and I like that class, but found that hunter is so populated in this.. So maybe thief ?? My friend was thinking mesmernecro or engineer for his support/healer.
Before we start this journey and devote hours and hours to gameplay, was looking for general opinions on this.
I know I could always test out the characters, but I honestly do not play that much and dont plan on having 10 characters like many do. Just 1.
THANKS A TON!!
