Well, I just picked up Guild Wars. Tell me what you favorite PVP class is, and why =P.
That way, I dont make useless characters =D
Sweet!!! DragonOutlaw AND a50 playing! This game just gets better and better.
a50, I don't do much PvP. I prefer the role-playing aspect of the game, and going on missions with people (and finding lots of cool treasure too, of course). Personally though, my main character that I play is a ranger, and I love it. Rangers are a really versatile class, although not in as much demand as, say, warriors or monks. Mesmers are a pretty neat class for PvP because they have so many hex skills that can make your enemies' offence ineffective. BoC probably has some better advice for you since I know he does a lot of PvP.
I haven't played Guild Wars for about a week now because I got some other stuff I need to take care of. For PvP, the key is creativity. Don't make cookie-cutter builds because they're not fun. Cookie-cutter builds include:
-air elementalist
-W/Mo that doesn't use smiting
-W/E knockdown-aftershock
-necro that uses Life Siphon and Life Transfer (they are "teh lame c0mbo")
I'm not saying these are bad builds, I'm just saying they're very typical and generally not very fun to play. When I PvP, I predominantly play random arena because everyone in tombs is hardcore and the chances of finding a competent team is virtually zero. I play random arena to have fun, but at the same time winning. I love creative builds that people don't see often. My 2 necro builds work amazingly well in random arena, especially my latest one called Brick Factory. I made a post about it earlier, so if you see me (I'm the ONLY necro in all of random arenas that look like that), stay the hell away from me because I will destroy you in seconds.
To answer your question, my favorite PvP class would have to be necromancer. Not only does it take decent skills, but it also requres vast knowledge of game mechanics and other classes to play a "good build". A good build is something like my Brick Factory.
My necro uses Dark Aura/Aura of the Lich. That should give you an idea of what kind of build I am.
BOC, your advice only works for someone whos played it a while, hes new.
Yeah, I had no idea what the hell was going on there. Lol.
Well you really shouldn't be going into PvP as a noob. Just play through the entire game in roleplay and you'll learn most of the important stuff. Play through again with a different class and you'll learn even more. Once you're comfortable with the stuff I wrote, it's PvP time [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img].
how do i transfer my RP account to PvP?

You don't. You just go in to an arena and fight. If you make a PvP character, that character can ONLY go to arenas.
gotcha BoC

BOC, whats the best second class for a necro, im making one.
That I don't know. For my hex build I use mesmer for Inspiration skills. It's a fairly energy-intensive build so Inspiration helps to recover some of that energy.
For my current build, I use only necro skills because those 7 skills are all I need for the build. They deal damage, heal, and protect me all at the same time. My secondary is warrior just to confuse the opponents because nobody plays a N/W...
As long as your secondary helps with your build, it's fine.
I was thinking warrior.. but does it matter?
It all depends on your build. My hex build must use mesmer for secondary, while my "ownage" build can be any secondary and it doesn't matter. That's the beauty of Guild Wars: it all depends on what you want to do.
Well, whats the best for pvp
I guess in random arena, my necro build reigns supreme. It has insane damage output and superb energy efficiency. I'm not going to tell you the build, but it's a N/W that focuses on Dark Aura/Aura of the Lich. As I said before, the W secondary does nothing for the build.
lol why wouldn't you tell me the build? is it a secret?
If he were to leak out his build, others would steal it =P.
Thus losing his uniqueness, or so to speak.
Anyway, Is there any quick way to go through RP part.
He can pm it, and who cares if i use it i barley play the game.
