Is there still a point in leveling paragon?
Alazardragoon
I see hardly any one levels paragon anymore. I have played most of Nightfall with my dervish now and I did all the missions with groups, Never ran into a paragon..I am wondering why..and if paragon has become a worthless class? Is it still worth leveling? Because I actually want to play a support class once i am done with my Dervish a Buff/DD is actually just what I was looking for in paragon. But If its become useless and no 1 will party with it now due to this new skill ever 1 wants to nerf, then Idk, Im a bit confused, I see so little paragons around now so I am really wondering whats up?

It is in the human nature to be self-destructive.

paragon > pve
most people in the game are idiots, that is why people hate pugs so much on this forum. go ahead and make a paragon, even if you don't use the omg stupidly over powered skills you will breeze through pve.

They are good if you know how to use them, people just go ugh they can't deal damage (when their DPS is actually higher than a wars without skills) and thus noone wants them.

If you like playing a support class, I don't see anything wrong with a paragon. Play what you like. Don't look at what other like. Just my 2 cents.
Alazardragoon
Yeah I guess i will try it out, I personally see nothing wrong with it at all, or any class, Each is just different from the next but they are all good in their own way im sure. Its just a matter of figuring out how to play it properly. I just hope people do team up with me though lol. It would be lame to PvE the entire story alone

why would you want to join a party anyways?
all the idiots who try to play para fail before they leave istan.
all the people who dont suck dont waste time joining pugs.

paragons + pve skills = god mode for team
paragons can make dmg in HM seem laughable when they can reduce dmg down to nothing for the whole party. This includes people under ursans
so i would say, yes there is still a place for paragons in this ursanage future :-)

paragons with its imbagon build just gives so much support to the team, reducing the dmg to mere nothing is wat a paragon can do best

imbagon is a force to be reckoned with, that's for sure.
make a para. you will find that people won't let you leave their parties.

Paragons, like all other classes, are only as good as the human playing them.
With the correct builds they are lots of fun and extremely usefull in any party for any mission/quest/dungeon.
They work well in PvE and PvP.
In the end it all comes down to one simple questiong....
Are you having fun playing that profession?
If you answer yes, keep playing if not time for a change.

play what you want to play---dont worry about what everyone else is doing. I still see lots of paragons playing all three chapters. Maybe you just are playing at the off-paragon time

Paragon is the ultimate support class and can breeze through HM PvE. Most PUGs don't know how valuable a paragon is to any party. Play a paragon if you think u'll have fun and enjoy it.

I like paragons they pump out a lot of consistent damage and spears are really cool in my opinion. I would definitely make a pve paragon.

Go for it paragons are broken in PvE.

Paragons can be brutal in PvE. Go for it.

Even without running Imbagon there's no reason not to take a human Paragon. A ranged warrior (80AL) with an unstrippable IAS - not to mention ability to keep up indefinitely - is more than imbalanced enough without getting into the damage reduction skills.
Edit:
That makes me sad, though. I'd much rather H/H than join crappy PUGs.

I love my para. It's a great storage character.

Paragons are great support characters. Not many people are good at them though.

Paragons : PvE Ownage.

To sum it up:
Paragons are incrediably overpowered, just a lot of people don't know it.
However, they are also incrediabley boring and repeatitive to play.

I have never used the sy imbagon build... and if people ask me to run it, Ill rattle off a bunch of reasons why I wont. Actually thats a lie-- I used to use SY&Spear of Fury on my Anthem of Guidance build when I first started h/h the duncan levels (before ursan went pop)
I have been playing my paragon since NF came out, and she has over 1/5th of my account's hour total. Paragons make fine tanks despite some peoples' opinions. Paragon is my favorite class due to its versatility...
Paragons are sexy, and to each their own. End of discussion.

i have to agree with OP. when i pug i love to have a para in the team, but nowadays, it seems hard to find people playing para, especially on tyria hard mode (crossing over from nf) . i knew few para character whom i played with and i know how good a para really is. we strolled pass destruction depth and gate of madness HM (among the hardest missions in gw) with breeze.
go para go !!
go para go !!

You never see paragons, because the only people that pug anymore do it because:
1)They don't have heros (Prophecies/Factions only)
2)They don't have the skills unlocked/are too dumb to make decent hero builds.
3)They are getting their rocks off PuGing.

Paragon is a versatile Class that should never lack for a group when experienced players get together. Personally I enjoy buffing up my party with chants and then skewering the enemy with a blazing spear. hehe If they just had some better armors they would be one of my favorites for sure.

paragon is my main char, what more to say. So far i have never had the trouble of finding a good PUG. Paragons got one of the best energy management, faster attack speed than a bow etc. Running SY they can be the best support class in the game, besides the outright healing of a monk
