seraph shay.6170 Posted June 2, 2020 Author Share Posted June 2, 2020 I think all classes could use some more detail and depth! You all have these great insights and I don't clearly see many of them reflected in the actual game play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neeklahs.3064 Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Shaman on gw2 **is mainly a norn title** not a profession, most of them are elementalist or necromancer, there are some warriors and ranger shamans. I mean u can be a Engineer shaman if you pass the spirit trial. **Jhavi jorasdotir** is a shaman necromancer. **Havroun Svena** is a Warrior like shaman. **Havroun Grechen** is kinda like a guardian or warrior, but she also uses poison. **Havroun Weibe** is a Necro who is capable of 100% shapeshifting into a big raven, not a humanoid raven but a big flying raven.

mercury ranique.2170 Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Short answer: go play a game with Shaman as a class. Longer answer: a name is a name. I dislike copying in games and think a game should be original and not a rip-of. So a class named shaman should be different and it should not be about the name. So maybe ask what kind of gameplay you'd like and why you are missing it in the current classes (bare in mind that asking for a "bash you head on the keyboard" - gameplay will not likely happen. It should be inline with the difficulty of the existing classes ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thehipone.6812 Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Easy, get gear with https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Shaman%27s prefix. The gear is called "Shaman's", indicating that it belongs to a Shaman. The gear is also yours. Ergo, you are now a Shaman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad someone else articulated this. I always thought the Revenant was thematically supposed to manifest legendary figures, not summon and interact with them.
