Primordial.9618 Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 I know I'm not the only one but I'm giving GW2 another go. Haven't played for ages. I remember I played Warrior and Ranger and had them geared quite decently (even did some serious fractals in the past). I think I'd like to discover this game again and start from zero, delete previous characters, buy DLCs, which came out during my absence. My questions are following: 1. Which class should I choose - dps/tank wise? Excluding Warrior and Ranger. Perhaps dps Guardian or Elementalist? I'm casual gamer who likes theorycrafting and maximum efficiency. 2. Would anybody recommend any guild? It can be English or Polish speaking. PVE/PVP not just one side oriented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overlord RainyDay.2084 Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 If you're seriously looking to get back into it, I'd advise against deleting your characters, or at least not all of them. You'll miss out on a lot of birthday presents that way. You're going to want to at least keep your oldest character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primordial.9618 Posted July 21, 2018 Author Share Posted July 21, 2018 Yea actually I've just picked up up to 5th gift + found many valuable items/consumables/materials. That's good idea to keep them. I can even use their bags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJH.2879 Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 Necro is always a good choice (both as a tank & dps)... thief is good choice for dps/speed/evasion, but of course thats my own opinion. I'd also advise against deleting too many past characters due to the birthday rewards they get per year.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnus Godrik.5841 Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 I would say dont delete your 1st 2 characters. You can go beserker and spellbreaker for warrior and soulbeast and druid for ranger which happen to be great classes. For a fresh start, guardian is a great class that can do dps and support. Pretty much any class can tank but chrono does it better and also has a great dps alternative. As far as guilds go there are plenty that advertise in lions arch. You have up to 5 you can keep.

Lanhelin.3480 Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 Do not delete your older Characters else you'll miss the birthday presents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hevoskuuri.3891 Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 Apart from the BD presents, you probably have rounded up some handy account currencies and other account-wide items you'll regret losing if you delete your characters. There's no real reason to delete them (aside from freeing up slots) because you can still create a fresh one and go with that from zero. Anyways, welcome back, hope you'll enjoy it!

Zedek.8932 Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 Not sure what the fuzz about the birthday rewards is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice 5-year exclusive weapon skins, titles, free 24-hour boosters, other items and level-up scrolls are something most people don't want to miss on.

Sinful.2165 Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 You’d probably want something like chronomancer for DPS/tank role. You’d need multiple sets of armor to do more than one role but that holds true for any class. Chrono is the tank meta in PvE, mirage is still really powerful in PvP and you can play a DPS variant of mesmer as well in PvE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primordial.9618 Posted July 22, 2018 Author Share Posted July 22, 2018 Decided. I'll go Engi Holosmith - Toolbelt Sword/Shield for Open World and later will figure something out for other PVE/PVP activities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
