What's The Best Profession in Guild Wars 2 for Beginners

by Helen Li Web Editor

With so many professions in Guild Wars 2, no every profession is suit for freshmen, some of them are very hard, or count few meaning to players, so what's the best profession in Guild Wars 2 for beginners? Every profession has its own strengths and characteristics, a weapon or magic specialty, and a unique set of skills with which to deal damage, manipulate the enemy or environment, or protect and heal allies. Each profession provides a set of attributes which determines the effectiveness of weapons and skills in battle.

 

Well Guardian and Warrior are in heavy armor so that might help a bit. Ranger, Thief, and Engineer are in medium armor. Elementalist, Necromancer, and Mesmer are in light armor. I'm guessing that it depends on the content and the player (not the character) moreso in GW2 than in other games that have come out lately.

 

As NuijaMas stated rangers do very nice bow damage. They can mix it up and do some decent burst melee damage as well so weapon swapping and timing is key here. The other profession with good mobility would be the thief. They have a good pistol/pistol combo and a short bow with some nice perks on it. They are also very good in melee burst damage and, with skill, can get in and out before their squishy butts get poked too much.

 

I'm guessing ranger and necro because of pets and durability. Rangers have Nature's Renewal which will make them very difficult to take down, and if they do go down their pet can always revive them. Necros have a second life bar through Death Shroud, a slew of minions, life drains, cc, and condition tools. I'm pretty confident that as a necromancer I could solo small groups of mobs at the same time.

 

Well, My answer to what's the best profession in Guild Wars 2 for Beginners is that the best class for levelling, for only the profession can level up fast will bring more fun to beginners, so it is the class You want to play for an extended time, for the sort of gameplay You prefer, WvW or PvE. No class in GW2 is by any means hard to level, it is just a difference in invested time. And consider what that time is worth to You compared with the fun You have while playing and the fun You have in the long run playing Your character at endgame waiting for new Expansions and new level caps ;)
