Topic. Apparently everyone that plays a sin enjoys running it and making monks mad. How many people really know how to play this class?

no, it's not the worst class. these people apparently have no clue about GWs. (i for myself havn't heard of this ever since the sins were buffed insanely)

Some people think that they'll be able to shadow-step, wipe out the whole team and still get out with decent amount of health.

Or maybe not... Still, there are A LOT of skills that require changes, not only boa sin skills.

rits/mesmers/paragons are worse, maybe dervish

Worst? Meh. Kinda one-dimensional for my tastes.

There sure is a lot of idiots that play the class though... From the PvE narutard who Death's Charges into a mob, to find himself raised as a Fiend 3 seconds later; to the wannabe AB-ninja who screams curses at you 'cuz you're smart enough to B-surge his face/Shield Bash his ass/kite.

No, I don't think Assassin's are the worst class. I've got one myself and I know how to play one so it's always fun. Bringing him through NF was fun and sooner or later I'll be taking him through Prophecies.

Most people always assume that Assassins are gonna just rush in and die but at least give them a try before making assumptions.

I love my assassin. Most of the people who say they are the worst had the misfortune to group with one who was bad. Once you group with a good one it's epic

your right, i dont have a rit, i have two, both have prot of cantha. i rarely feel effective as a rit tho, i know some peeps love em, and good on ya.

mesmers (check the thread in the mesmer forum) arent all that wunderbar either. but mine has 3 protector titles and some 15k armour.

paragons are awsome, but im suspecting its now more about "theres nothing to fear". mines prot of elona, and 1 mission from prot of cantha.

i dont really dig the dervish primary, or the pre battle casts.

i like my assassin cos he does 100dps~ + sustained, can do surprising too

and besides, death blossom, moebius strike and horns of the ox on varesh is funny. and blades of steel has a sweet animation

assassins are definetally not the worst class. in fact, there really is no "worst" class in GW, becuase all classes can be fun, engaging, challenging, and effective all at the same time. It just depends on the skill of the player. (and sometimes the effectiveness of the wikibuild they use lolz )

the OP has obviously never seen a paragon or a mesmer.

The sin is the worst class in the game for those who think it is. You cannot change their minds.

Since I've been playing Sin my mind has been changed towards it somewhat. I'm not sure there is a "worst class" in the game...there are more or less "favoured" classes in both PvP and PvE, and in PvE, Sin probably isn't a "favoured one" because of the reputation they received when Factions was released as a class which dies a lot.

If pushed, very very hard, I might say the worst class in my opinion is a Dervish. Not because they're bad, just because they're the least useful.

Warriors are the worst class, cus they they dont look cool like us sins and our friends the Dervishes do.


Oh and ummm Assassins are 1 of the bests classes -_- there is no fully best...there is a worse *cough*warrior....*wheeze*Paragon*cough* but ummmm

Mesmer,Assassin,Dervish,Ranger,Ele,Rit,Necro,Monk are all great classes =P

But uh sin looks the best.

I'm still getting to grips with my Sin. I feel it's okay for PvE now but I must say I sometimes feel kinda helpless in Team Arena. Shutdown casters who get their Blind in before my Off Hand connects are simply disaster - I can think of no way to neuter them except for Plague Touch or something (/N 2ndary) which I haven't tried yet.

As I haven't got Factions for that long I still have to unlock some Elite skills so that might be part of the problem, but I still think a Sin without support (which seems to happen quite often as people tend to do 'their own stuff') is easy prey for a single well-prepared opponent. I might be wrong! I hope I am.

Uh... yeah. If you think your sin will ever be good in everything then gl.
If you think you can have decent self-heal, condition and hex removing skill, skills that bypass blocks and still do nice amount of damage then... Well, there isn't any class for you.
You're playing in TA? Then what the hell is your monk doing when you ping "I have Reckless Haste/Blind on me!" ?


But if you want to be immune to anything and don't have to rely on anybody I guess I'd go with Shadow Form -,-

Guild wars is a team-based game- there's no such thing (in pvp of course) as undependant character.

I'm getting kind of annoyed at how many people think paragon is the worse class....It may be the worst class for farming, but does that make it the worst class? Seriously, think about what your saying before you say it. A paragon is unbelievably effective at keeping a party on it's feet, and ready to rip.
