Light Armor Classes

Are Light Armor Classes Always Fragile? Let’s Talk Necromancer! When we hear the word “light” in MMORPGs, we usually think of low-health, fragile characters. While that might be true for classes like Elementalist and Mesmer, I believe we need to make an exception for the Necromancer. Necromancer might actually be the most durable open-world class when using Berserker stats. It's tanky, scary, and it was my very first character in Guild Wars 2. When you enter Shroud mode, it feels like you're immortal — your health bar practically doubles, and you start draining life from your enemies, blinding them, frightening them, and more. It’s an incredibly beginner-friendly class. So, let’s talk about it! Necromancer Plague, skulls, diseases, life force — everything you'd expect from a dark magic caster. The Necromancer turns negative effects like poison and slow into powerful weapons. The green bar might even feel like it's calling out to you: “Play me, I was made for you!” Espec...

Medium Armor Classes

In this post, I’ll try to talk about the medium armor classes in Guild Wars 2. The medium armor classes are made up of three professions: Thief, Ranger, and Engineer. To be honest, I could go on and on about the Engineer—maybe it’s unfair to the other two, but I’ve never really played Thief or Ranger in the five years I’ve been actively playing Guild Wars 2. So, I can’t go into deep detail for those two classes. After all, there are nine different classes in the game, and it’s rare for a player to truly master every profession and specialization. Let’s begin then, shall we? Maybe my recommendations can help you before diving into the game. This image is sourced from the official Guild Wars 2 media page and belongs to ArenaNet. Thief (Assassin) Imagine a character you see once—and then it disappears. The next time you see them, you’re already down or dead. (This applies mostly to PvP and WvW, as you can't really duel players in the open world.) Now, picture this in PvE: you ju...

Heavy Armor Classes

  A Detailed Overview Hello friends! On this page, I will try to explain in detail the characters of the Heavy Armor classes as much as I know. To briefly recall the classes under Heavy Armor, they are, in order: Warrior, Guardian, and Revenant. I started playing GW2 in August 2020, and the first character I created—and mained for nearly a year—was the Necromancer. In 2021, on a friend’s recommendation, I created my first Warrior and began my adventures in Tyria. I played this character for many years, so let’s start with the Warrior class. Warrior Class The Warrior is a character who can use almost every weapon. Their survivability and health bar are quite high, and they have many skills that help them stay alive. You might not always see the Warrior in the Meta (the term "Meta" refers to the ongoing cycle of buffs, nerfs, and shifts in the roles characters can fulfill). In late game and end content, you can see Warriors both as tanks and support roles, as well as deali...
