Monk: HELL no, healing is anathema to the way I think when fighting (screw my lifebar, THEY ALL MUST DIE HORRIBLY)
You would make a good Warrior. Seriously, it's amazing how many stupid people sit around with their Warriors spamming self heals and generally being useless. Aggression is a good thing (provided you know what you're doing, of course).

Assassin: I like the chaining of skills together, and the teleportation seems to be able to cover up the running into melee problem, but theres something about stealth that doesn't sit right with me. I feel like I'm too weak if I can't take on my opponent directly, and waiting isn't my forte
Don't worry about the squishyness too much. All professions need Monk support to stay alive. Even My 116AL+ Warrior can take several hundred damage from Elementalist bossed in Hard Mode. You'll have Protective Spirit when it matters.

Ritualist: uh...I think they work by setting up spirit turret things, which I wouldn't like because constantl setting them up every fight would be annoying, but I'm probably wrong about this, so this is up for grabs
I don't find Spirit Spamming tedious. If it doesn't sound appealing, you'll get bored of it eventually. Seeing all the big yellow numbers popping up never gets old though.
PS: From a Rit fan, Spirit Spamming isn't all they do. While it is an incredibly powerful technique, it's just as good on heroes as it is for player characters. Rit's are one of the most versatile professions. You could run RestoRit, Channeling, some form of hybrid with Smiting, etc. Get creative.
Quote:
Dervish: I've always loved the art of buffing myself way too much and charging the frontlines as an immortal god of war, but robes and scythes are not something I like, and melee is kinda problematic due to the way aggroing work in this game, plus I've read that their kinda weak.
For melees, you'll want to be buffed with as many physical based buffs as you can (like Strength of Honor) to reach your damage potential. However, these buffs are packed onto the midline characters such as Rits, Necros, and Eles. I don't know if that satisfies your need for buffing.
Dervishes are seen as weak because of all the professions, they're probably 3rd or 4th best at using scythes. Their primary attribute doesn't really help them, unlike Strength for Warriors or Critical Strikes for Assassins. I've heard they're getting a buff, but that won't be for at least 2 months.
Quote:
Paragon: Grrr, I LOVE the armor, LOVE the throwing spears, so why the HELL did they have to be cursed with being the party bard!?!?! I'm not sure if they can be a good offensive engine with buffing on the side, but if they can't, then they're probably a bad choice for me. I like the idea of being able to say "I'm just here to make you guys do better, I can't be held responsible for you people doing badly with the advantages I gave you."
If you're not going to be playing with random people often, feel free to run whatever you like. PvE is getting pretty easy now with all the power creep. It's not like you need to be 100% efficient either. If you want to focus on spear damage with some buffs, it's fine. It's not like it's not a viable concept anyway. Remember, GW is a game. Games are for fun. If you want to play your Para like this, do it.
----------------------------------------
It's fairly obvious you prefer physicals over casters. Of those, you seem best suited to a Paragon, but playing another Warrior is definitely viable if you tune your heroes right.

Needling/Penetrating/Sundering have 1/2s aftercasts, but the attack itself is 1/4th, so under no IAS effects it comes out to the listed 3/4s. This is very different than the 1s + 1/2 unlisted aftercast on most skills like quick shot.

and the activation times ARE!! reduced by IAS (contrary to most peoples belief) allowing for faster (albeit only slightly) spikes, but that maybe 1/10th of a second can make a huge difference in the outcome
Yeah 1/4th shaved off of 1/4th... that's about what you are getting. Still something I suppose.

Most flexible profession in Guild wars, you can do spirit, good healing (but you don't want that). sounds like you want channeling magic to deal direct damage and layer conditions on foes, or maybe mix both? since it takes less than 10 seconds to set up a team of spirits now you can teleport them around with you and pretty good as an aggresive play style since they can handle more mobs.
go for whatever you want, just don't make decisions until you've done the normal content (past LA, Shing jea and kamadan) then see if you enjoy the profession. you can always re-roll pretty quickly in most areas.
04 Jun 2010 at 12:53 - 8
if you are afraid to play warrior because of a few little pesky mesmer hexes, don't be  if you have to, you can use your heroes to ensure that you are always hex free. other than that, JimmyTyme's ranger build looks quite fun  might have to go try it myself ;-)
05 Jun 2010 at 16:03 - 9
I'm not afraid to be a warrior because of mesmers, it's more of it being incredibly tedious to have to run up to people to fight. Plus the more I think of it, the more I'm starting to see that all the cool stuff that made melee appealing to me in the past was mostly magic attacks using a weapon as a focus. While there is a certain satisfaction in beating people to death with their own femurs and not worrying about antimagic abilities like silence (that DOES exist here, doesn't it?), It's just not as awesome as creating lightning storms and freezing lifeblood. Even with the range of the ranger I'm quickly getting bored of shooting them with an arrow, then another harder hitting arrow in comparison to a stream of fireballs. On the plus side, I'm finally starting to see why I love spellswords so much.
So on the topic of ritualists, are they generally considered popular due to swarms of spirits/healing, or can they get similar numbers with their form of blasting? Other than the seeming blindness, they DO sound appealing (I always DID like versatility and a panic heal button. Plus they have hard res options, which kick ass). Also, is there a reason to choose staff over wand/focus other than asthetics? From the examples I've found, they seem to have the same effects at the same level meaning no innate statistical difference, but you can add attachments to both wand and focus which I pretty sure means more bonus' from wand/focus over staff.

Silence doesn't exsist the closest comparisson would be daze, which while just as effective most of the time, can be MUCH easier to overcome, and is nowhere even close to as common, spells swords do... kinda exsist ... the basics would be a W/E useing one of the conjure spells from the elementalist chain to boost their dmg, but it really doesn't affect the playstyle you still have to work around block, blind, knockdown and watch your aggro.

The biggest difference between the 2 is staves have an innate 20% chance to half the recharge time of ALL spells, and can acheive up to +20 energy, and have the ability to use a 20% enchanting mod, whereas the wand/spell combo you have an innate 2 energy bonus over the staff but lack the base 20% HSR, don't have the ability to pass +17 energy (total) and don't have the ability to use a 20% enchanting mod, but you have more room to mod as you desire, including the ability to raise your defense slightly, switch out to a melee weapon or spear to counteract the 20% enchanting mod and even cause casters to gather less aggro ( see here for details on the AI aggro model), you also have the option of switching to a shield for higher defense (on demand, also decreases aggro).
Also... The Ritualist is like Guildwars' version of the paladin, they can heal (often better than monks in pve only), they make swarms of spirits (which can be moved quickly and easily), and they can dish out dmg to incredible amounts (some builds can achieve up to 800+dmg to multiple foes in LESS than 3 seconds, which adds cracked armor and is maintainable to boot, meaning you can do it numerous times throughout the fight without worrying much about energy)... so yea rit's are at the moment one of the best classes to play as, but they're no more common than any other class (with the likely exclusion of mesmers and paragons)

Hai! First of all, I tl;dr'd most of your post. Guild Wars is different from other MMOs so the class you played elsewhere may feel totally different here. I will just give a summary of each prof.
Assassin: If you want quick GWAMM then pick this one. Assassin can run a large selection of powerful c+space builds and hero setups ranging from more caster-based like Discord to stuff that is built around melee buffs. It can farm, it can run. You ain't going to get bored with this one.
Mesmer: Sexy armor! Lots of sexy armor combinations to waste your wealth on. Recently got a buff, is quite strong, like an Assassin it has many builds to play with so you won't have to be running AP Caller all the time.
Ritualist: Spirits are awesome and cool. They destroy anything in their way. Aside from that Rit has fun Resto and Chan builds and adapts very well to various strong hero setups.
Ele: Prepare to be running AP Caller all the time if you want GWAMM. Females has bewbs though.
Monk: Same as Eles but cute and no bewbs.
Necro: Same as Eles (more or less) but ugly. Necros work extremely well with Discord, obviously.
Warrior: Assassin without solo farm. Requires brain power.
Ranger: Uhhh whats that? o.O
Dervish: Underpowered Scythe Sin.
Paragon: Has one build that is woth running (there are two more builds that make Dagger/Scythe Para so it deals at least SOME damage but meh). Very exciting class!
I realise that I mostly talk about title grind here. That's because it makes for majority of your PvE activity so when picking your main, you should have GWAMM in mind.

completely ignored their individual styles of play...also completely focus'd on gwamm which for a new player he shouldn't be going directly for... and a few of your comments completely ignore a dozen or more amazing builds....

A bit about my style: Although I used to simply take a big stick and charge in blindly in MMO's, I've recently come to the realization that this is stupid and gets me killed/knocked down/stuned/ganged up on/pisses off everyone I play with. I tried a ranged character in DAO and realized "hey, this is like, 50x better than I was before!" and am now interested in trying a ranged character, especially since range tends to be rather long from what I remember of guild wars. I hate sacrificing my durability as well, and I hate taking a bunch of hits unless I can trust my healer will keep me on my feet (kinda standard, but when going gets tough I tend to run, which screws up the team) I like having a random guy/minion keep the enemy's attention, but I prefer not to rely on others to get the job done, I have a bit of a complex about the power I use being mine, and not borrowed from the gods, or requested from the trees or things like that. I also prefer to be the damager instead of healer/buffer, and I tend to play aggressively.
Sounds like you want a ranger; they're durable, they have the longest range of any profession, and you can let frontliners or pets keep the aggro. They usually serve as damage-dealers (in PvE) and are pretty much the best spiking profession (in PvE). Unfortunately, they're the weakest PvE profession at the moment (but they might get buffed soon).
I use a build similar to the one posted earlier, but with a different format and different attributes. I use max Marks, take expertise down to twelve to meet the Expert Focus breakpoint for 10e skills, and dump the rest in Beast Mastery: build Dropping Needling for "Save Yourselves!" is good (sometimes you don't really need it) in HM if no one else has it or if you're playing with henchmen.
Also, don't worry about having to use traps or nature rituals; they're terrible.

How so? They were simple, truthful and without any stupid drama. Certainly my post is more helpful than nitpicking contests that just confuse the OP. :3

You are being ambiguous. Name those amazing builds or you are misleading the poor newbie. There are no such thing as individual style of play, only tactics/builds that work and those that don't. As a matter of fact Eles are forced to rely on staple AP Caller chain (or similar) to be effective in general PvE for example and whatever super special snowflake damage build you come up with will be less effective. You know it's the truth, don't blame me blame A-Net.
Oh and yes I'm talking about GWAMM because you are on a quest for it right from the start with your main. The whole point of PvE is to get that title and fill in your HoM in preparation for GW2.
As a whole you guys should stop playing mysterious Gurus of the forumland and elaborate your claims more. Also, like I said above, nitpicking contests aren't helpful (this entire thread). You are giving off irrelevant stuff as important which only confuses people, making them worry about stuff they shouldn't be.

Elementalists have ER builds, which is one of the most OP builds in the game. While they are in desperate need of a buff so they can actually be played the way they were meant to be played, they at least have options to easily get them into a group. Also, they have ward builds, which are okay.
Dervs have an underrated critscythe build that does almost as much damage as the sin version while giving the user a 75% block chance and SY. They're in need of a buff for the same reason as eles, but they have at least one good option. Also they have some random casting support roles.
Rangers have nothing, tbh. We have EoE, but nothing to offer with it, so it's better on rits or monks in SCs. And EoE, along with every other nature ritual, has a casting time far too obnoxiously long for any balanced groups. We have Splinter Barrage, which is also better on rits thanks to the Splinter breakpoint. We have regular ol' Barrage, but it's only good in tank 'n' spank and in extremely cramped areas which may or may not exist. Even then, it's far outclassed by AoE options on other professions. We have traps, which are quite possibly the slowest, least efficient way to fight in any area except Zelite. We have BHA, which is beaten by Technobabble in 95% of areas. We have half-assed imitations of other professions' builds because bows are terrible in PvE. We have conditions and interrupts, which are terrible in PvE. And we have random turret builds which are nice for spiking, but are outclassed by pretty much every other DPS-based physical classes.
So yeah, rangers are pretty damn weak.
05 Jun 2010 at 21:16 - 19
actually, the ranger build suggested has been made quite clear (stack debuffs and unleash dakka, repeat as needed) The only issue is that bows are one of the lamest weapon types ever and physical attacks in MMO's in general tend to be boring.
Maybe the first couple levels are a bad basis for this, but I'm beginning to think that durability isn't going to be much of a concern in the long run, since as has been said, no class can survive without a monk (or other healer type I assume), so I might as well go with a fun offense instead of worrying about my defense.
Does the Ritualist (I hear they be strong, and most of the other classes I'm interested in are straightforward enough) get any legitimate attack spells? (spirit rift is fun and all, but kinda hard to hit with since they charge me once it's cast) By legitimate I mean like an ele's flare spell, since it's just a basic attack (effects and cast times can be part of it, but mainly something I won't have to time to hit properly)

You are misleading him by suggesting bad skills. I'm bothering to go a step further and avoid doing that. Oh and it was nitpicking. He shouldn't even bother about those skills, Spirit Siphon > Essence Strike, Summon Spirits > Spirit Boon, Channeled and Wielder's Strikes are too clumsy. It makes no sense to run those over Spirits, Resto or Physical Buffs.

I could've made it halfway in two days? I HATE BEING INDECISIVE! I've spent this time trying to think of which to go with, and trying them out...I haven't even gotten a second profession yet...(yes, it sucks to be me. No, I have no idea why I can't make such a simple choice.) what the glitch? this doesn't appear until after I tried to repost it? Sigh, expect another post of mine to pop up somewhere...

Not really. If you're an experienced player, know what you're doing, and skip most of the side quests you can finish* campaigns in a couple of days, if that. Granted, new players should spend time doing all the side quests, exploring, etc. Depending on how many hours a day you play, you have at least a months worth of gameplay.
*'Finish' in this context meaning beating the final mission. 'Finish' to me means exploring the entire map getting bonus/masters completion for all missions, doing all the subquests (I check them off using GuildWiki), etc. Each one takes a fair while, even though I know what I'm doing.
Quote:

New players worry too much about the secondary profession. Once you get past a certain point, you are able to change your secondary profession whenever you're in a town. You should only be using it to pick up one or two skills to round off your bar, not to pretend your Monk (after going Mo/E) is now an incredibly uber awesome sorceror**. If you find it's not working you can just stick with your primary profession until you can change it to something else.
**A good example of a Mo/E would be Glyph of Lesser Energy, which helps with the 10 energy protection spells. Remember, you don't pick two professions. You pick a primary and a secondary. Monks keep people alive, regardless of what their secondary is (there are exceptions with this, like always, but I'm keeping it simple).
06 Jun 2010 at 01:33 - 29
I haven't confirmed a primary profession yet, let alone gotten halfway through the game... I am REALLY bad at starting games...Recap time, I guess
War: slow, melee, lack of cool looking abilities. Other than that, kickass!
Ran: archery sucks. The end.
Mon: do I really need to say something here?
Mes: eh, too indirect for my liking
Ele: Ranged, awsome looking skills, weak due to enemy armor
Nec: not too sure, minion mastering is probably strong, but I'd rather do the killing myself, and They look. So. STUPID. Also, playtest reveals 25 energy= one minion...Not worth it in my books.
Asa: They require a slight amount of patience and lack armor. Also, daggers look stupid. They can work quite well though with teleporting and combos.
Rit: I'd rather not drag a swarm of turrets to beat the game, and blasting is indirect
Der: might be cool, can't try for another week or so though, if that.
Par: read der.
As you can plainly see, it sucks to be me (and rhyming is fun), at least when it comes to characters. The mian problem with melee is that it's where all the dying and debuffs seem to come into play, and I feel the need to avoid all that (also running up to the enemy feels like a waste of time). This gets especially bad with warriors since I'm pretty sure they're SUPPOSED to be the one taking all the hits, which is something I'd rather not be doing. I suppose I lean to the warrior most of all though, I'd prefer more energy to work with skills though. faster attacks that hit legitimately hard would be nice too, but I guess those come in later when you minmax the ass off of them?

My comments regarding this in bold to make life easier.

Ran: archery sucks. The end. Viable, but not better at anything that matters than another profession. If you don't like bows, as you've mentioned, don't make a ranger.
Mon: do I really need to say something here? Not really, no.
Mes: eh, too indirect for my liking Agreed.
Ele: Ranged, awsome looking skills, weak due to enemy armor If you want to play a stereotypical nuker, then this is true (though they are still viable damagewise in normal mode and some other circumstances). There are other options however, like ER builds.
Nec: not too sure, minion mastering is probably strong, but I'd rather do the killing myself, and They look. So. STUPID. Also, playtest reveals 25 energy= one minion...Not worth it in my books. Necros are powerful. MM's and MB's* (minion bomber) are found in pretty much found in hero setups. They're easy, they deal decent damage with Death Nova, Barbs, and Mark of Pain, and provide a wall of flesh. Also, where did you get 25e = 1 minion? That's wrong. Animate Bone Fiend costs 25e, but thats only one kind. Animate Bone Minions will give you 2 minions for 15e and one corpse. Don't underestimate Soul Reaping either. It returns tons of energy. If you're not interested in them, heroes are perfectly suited to Necro roles.
*An MM focuses on creating powerful minions such as horrors and fiends to do lots of damage, ideally with Order of Undeath as the elite. An MB focuses on creating cheap minions to put Death Nova on so they turn into walking bombs.
Also, Necros have much more than just minions
Asa: They require a slight amount of patience and lack armor. Also, daggers look stupid. They can work quite well though with teleporting and combos.Armor isn't a big concern. Critical Agility helps. Shadow steps aren't particularly useful in PvE.
Rit: I'd rather not drag a swarm of turrets to beat the game, and blasting is indirectIf you don't like the Rit's unique abilities, you probably won't enjoy any part of being a Rit. Seems like you just don't like midliners in general.
The real problem with melee is that it's where all the dying and debuffs seem to come into play, and I feel the need to avoid all that.Easy enough eith decent hero setups. Deaths occur rarely, even in HM.
This gets especially bad with warriors since I'm pretty sure they're SUPPOSED to be the one taking all the hits, which is something I'd rather not be doing. If you're a melee, especially the only human one, expect to be taking a fair amount of damage. It's not a particularly big deal though. As above, staying alive is simple when you know how.
I suppose I lean to the warrior most of all though, I'd prefer more energy to work with skills though.Warrior's Endurance Axe/Scythe builds may appeal.
faster attacks that hit legitimately hard would be nice too, but I guess those come in later when you minmax the ass off of them? off of what?
06 Jun 2010 at 03:30 - 31
off of warriors, maybe it's just because I haven't managed to find anything beyond the starter weapons or put any points into a weapon skill yet, but all my attacks deal 1-2 damage max, unless I use power attack it which case its more like 13-18.
06 Jun 2010 at 03:36 - 32
If you're only getting 1-2 damage out of regular swings for a Warrior, something is wrong, regardless of what level/area you're in. You're welcome to post your build/attributes/area/level/equipment/etc and we can figure it out.
06 Jun 2010 at 04:33 - 33
I think it was
strength 3
tactics 2
at level 3-4 using starter sword. i'm aware this is sub-optimal, I just didn't know which weapon I wanted to use at the time.

That can be fixed with skills like Enraging Charge or Sprint for faster movement, and Flail or Frenzy will speed up your attacks. As to your concerns about energy, remember warriors also make use of adrenaline.
By the sound of it, I'd choose a warrior if I were you. But even if it turns out you don't like it, there's nothing to stop you from just trying another class anyway. You do have more than one character slot, you know?

There's nothing stopping you from picking up the best weapon of each type you find and swapping whenever you like. Remember, you can redistribute your attribute points whenever you're in a town. Good Warriors are flexible and swap weapons when the need arises.
Regarding the 1-2 damage, are you sure that's not an exaggeration? Unless you're fighting stuff that's of a significantly higher level than you, you shouldn't be dealing that little damage.
