whats with people hating paragons? ._.

your not a core 6, anything a little from the norm "He burns" "she heals" "He Slashes" "She casts" sort of things tend to go meh in pugs

I think in the pecking order of PuG Discrimnation its a little somthing like this
(1 being least wanted)

5. Dervish
4. Mesmers
3. Ritualists
2. Assassins
1. Paragons

(and odly everyone I know seems to play one of those as their main and , agaisnt popular opinion, We tend to do rater well for ourselves)

The same reason people hate mesmers: They're clueless.

Non-PvEers hate Paragons because they're too damn powerful. Took the words right out of my mouth. I'm thinking about rolling one just for those reasons.

Paragons are a great profession. You can make a paragon that can reduce the damage to the entirely party by 1/3rd continuously for example.

Cautery Signet owns also.

Warriors are actually worse off in PvE specifically. Other than the Obsidian tank for hard area's (which ele's can do as well) there's hardly a need for a warrior.
The main problem is that other classes can do more damage and using a warrior as a tank doesn;t work very well. The reason is that the warrior hasn't got enough defences to stay alive on his own long enough for aggroing the enemies to work very well. You need a good group who really understands how aggro circles and luring work and strangely most people don't get it including a lot of warriors.

Most people will accept a Dervish as melee character and it does better cause a Dervish can still do some damage even when blinded. Blinding and such are the biggest bane to melee characters in that sense. The DPS just goes to crap instantly with that 90% miss chance but the Dervish hits more targets and some attacks do additional damage even when he misses. Warriors don't have that.

Personally I think that in GW2, where they want to limit the amount of professions back, they should combine the warrior and paragon classes into one.

But as always a lot of people don't understand what some classes can really do like the para's and mesmers out there and you get a real life situation of discrimination like you see at schools and other places in the real world. People are stupid is probably the best summary.

I've always thought paras are pretty bleh.. i made one myself when i heard of save yourselves.. but i couldn't keep it up much but come to think about it i was also using spear attacks etc so you won't be doing anything else apart from using 2 skills in your bar to keep that up..

Can anyone here tell me what paras actually have apart from 2 pve skills. (save yourselfs + theres nothing to fear).

It's really incredible, and I can totally understand why paragons are underestimated by the average nonguru/forum/wiki goer, which is the majority of the gaming population according to Anet.

i wish they would have included a para henchie with gwen was sad top find out there wasnt one when i first got it

Pugs hate paragons because they are stupid.
Good players hate paragons because paragons are overpowered.
