Single Professions?

I'd actually prefer it if the fix ArenaNet put in went more like :
Go to Armis, he says...hey, you can get a second profession, what do you think?
Then you can say, no, I'd rather not and have the quest complete and then tag you as being ready to Post. Or say, ya sure sounds like a lovely idea, sign me up.
If you don't complete this quest with him, either accepting the second proffession or denying it, then you wouldnt be able to post. Thus preventing noobies from acidentally posting with one profession. That is if they bother to read the options
Otherwise, seems silly to try to use a loophole to get around the requirement. but I've been tempted myself to do it. Because I like the idea of a single class. I like the idea of dual class as well. With so many choices in this game, why limit us with this one. so what if you dont need to use the second profession. It's rather besides the point.
Now if anyone could confirm that you can join another player who has two professions and slip past Tydus with only one.....

As such, it's not particularly unique. Having a single profession would be a purely cosmetic thing (and currently possible for PvP premades); if that pleases you personally to look at, great. My comment was just for those who'd choose it in order to show to others that they were different, going against the grain, etc. - I feel that's just misguided narcissism, every single person in the community is already different through their personality, you don't need a visual token to prove it. |

I dunno. I'm apt to believe that the ranger is probably the best suited class for single professioning in. Rangers are the most diverse, and when you have a single class that generally can only excel in one area, having one that can do everything is a great way to change and evolve over the course of your PvE adventure. Some may say that though the ranger is a jack-of-all-trades, he/she is a master of none. To be honest, I've found that rangers can be just as good as any other class in their methods. A ranger can match a mesmer in distruptions, can hit hard for aoe almost as hard as an elementalist, and can definitely deal out single target damage like a warrior can. Not necessarily the "right" opinion 100%, but I have found that this side of the argument has its valid points.
