Most Used Weapons/Professions

I think swords and warriors are most used.

Bows and Rangers are in the middle.

Wands and mesmers are least used.

In RA you have

Lots of sins with staffs...
Lots of rit with bows...
One time i see a Sin/Ran with a axe...

Any kind of offhand focus. About 80% of people use two handed staffs.

I've never quite understood this. Other than the potential for +20 energy (Insightful head and +5>50), staves are basically equal or inferior to wand/focus (or martial weapon/focus) combos for every permutation if you meet the focus's requirement.

+3 energy doesn't seem like it's worth it...

well axes and swords are widley used as caster weapons...

Preference.

I generally kit heroes out with staves. And lets face it, GW PvE really doesn't require you to be at your best...

Yeah I used to have wand/offhand but at this point with a fully maxed out staff I can rock and roll pve or pvp. Preference I guess.

swords, wands + offhands, staff on caster.
axe sword on warrior, wand if u wanna get some adren.. rarely seen that though.
bow on ranger or staff if trapper
spear on paragons..

some thing like that.

most used?
sword,axe,shield,dagger,bow,staff,wand.

1. Warrior --> Sword

2. Monk --> Rods/Wands and offhand items.

3. Ele --> Staff

4. Ranger --> Bow

5. ......

war - axe
sin - daggerz
ranger - bow
monk- spear + shield/offhand
paragon - spear
caster - offhand + wand
dervish - scythe

wand/focus can be 40/40, staff cant
staff can have 20% enchant, wand/focus cant

^^ What Undead said

Most used-Sword/Warrior for PvE

Well, I think every PvE character should have a longbow, regardless of profession, or the stats of the longbow. Purely for pulling reasons. So I suspect that longbows are the most common. However, that is assuming most PvE players actually do think about pulling, which might be a stretch.

I have a sneaking suspicion that Hammers drop disproportionately much more than anything else.

well, if wands and staves count on the weapon list, I'd say they get the top spot for "most used weapon" simply because there are 5 professions that use them.

as far as martial weapons go, I'd say it goes about
1. sword
2. axe
3. bow
4. hammer
5. scythe
6. dagger
7. spear

though tbh I think the last 3 or 4 spaces are up in the air.

Voltaic Spears and Tormented Shield

everyone except warriors, rangers and assassins uses them

(i am exaggerating)

i think his asking what type of weapons not skin.........

anyways


monks- spears/axes/swords for casting + offhand / shield
warriors-axe
sin-daggers
ele- wand+offhand

since there are 5 caster classes I would tend to say staves are the most used. I like them especially on heroes ---just in case my storage is full I can drop a shield or focus item on them and have a free storage space!
Other casters are using spears and swords but still have a staff as backup .
Almost all of my characters have a bow for long range pulling, and one of my mesmers and one of my monks use it almost exclusively.

least used daggers and scythes....since only sins use daggers and dervishes use the scythes....

Martial + Focus can. With better overall stats.

Wand/Martial + Focus has also advantage of one being able to have more equipment permutations with less storage slots and without remoding (ya rly.)
