What race/profession will you start off with?

Zeppelin5083Zeppelin5083 Member Posts: 410

I was wondering what race people who are planning on playing GW2 will be starting off with first? I'll be going in as a human ranger, as that was what my main was and has always been my favorite class. I do plan to play around with the other races/professions (Norn Guardian always sounded cool to me).

 

I do know it's a bit early to ask this, as not all professions have been announced, but I was just wondering from those who had a general idea (or bias, in my case).

    I always played human necro/whatever

    This isn't a signature, you just think it is.

    I didn't play GW1, so I'll likely try all or most of the classes before settling on a main. Right now I'm leaning towards a Norn ranger and Asura elementalist. Possibly a human guardian.

    Same here, but probably start off with a Norn Ranger, Charr Warrior, and more likely a necromancer not sure which race though.

    I'm planning on starting of as a Sylvari Elementalist because I'm new to the Guild Wars Universe, just like the Sylvari and the Elementalist was the profession that 1st intrigued me. Also Sylvari and Elementalist seem to go hand-in-hand.

    Stop creating these threads bro, evry time i forget gw2 is being created you people suck me right into the depths again grrrrr !!!

     

    Char Hunter for sure defently a ranger type class, might try out the Warlock type class also, but those rangers is all i need to assist my brothers in all our epic journeys, in PVP and PVE i will protect your back and nuke down evry enemy that come close to you!!

    I will start off as a guardian, unless one of the new professions grabs my attention. Race, still not decided, depends on whether my wife decides to play or not. If she does, we will most likely be Sylvari or Human, if not, then most likely a Norn.

    I am thinking a human guardian or a human ranger. The norn are the only other race I think Id' choose. I dont like banana tree hair that the silvari have, the little gnome class isnt my style and the char seem a bit over designed to me.

  • UnlightUnlight Member Posts: 2,540

    Let's see:


    1. Norn Warrior

    2. Human Mesmer

    3. Charr Hunter

    4. Sylvari Rogue/Assassin (whatever it ends up being)

    I know I'm taking liberties with presumed classes to come, but that's the plan so far.  I'll have an Asura too, but I'm not decided on the profession.  I'll have to wait for the final reveals before deciding.

  • jondifooljondifool Member UncommonPosts: 1,143

    i am thinking of a

    1) sylvari necro - life and death and curiosity

    2) Norn mesmer  - mess with people head and back it up with being BIG and then add whereform- nice

    3) Azura warrior - small and more annoying than any dwarf. Or maybe even an azura ranger for the heck of it

    4) char guardian (or any dualist class) . Puzz in boots . Defently char combined  with the class with the best hat

    5) human whatever

  • neceoneceo Member Posts: 22

    way to hard to choose as all the classes look pretty good.  I usually perfer a caster class but the melee class looks bad ass

  • SolestranSolestran Member Posts: 342

    I won't likely be playing the game, just because I don't want any of my money going to NCSoft, even though I'm a big fan of ArenaNet.  Still, if I did, I would definitely try a Sylvari as I am a tree hugger and damn proud of it.

    1) Norn warrior

    2) Charr ranger

    3) Human guardian

    4) Sylvari necro

    I´ll probably be a Norn Guardian, big magical shields and weapons+ big shapeshifting guy is just cool :P

  • RameiArashiRameiArashi Member UncommonPosts: 294

    Sylvari elementalist

    Norn ranger

    Asura warrior

    Human guardian

     

    Haven't decided about race for necromancer.

    Human guardian

    Norn warrior

    Sylvari ranger

  • TalthanysTalthanys Member Posts: 458

    I like melee combat, so Charr or Norn Warrior. I am struggling mightily between those two races. If ana ssassin type class comes out, then it'll be Norn War then Char Sin.

    Sylvari elementalist,

    Human Ranger

    Norn Warrior

    Human Guardian

    Asuran Necro

    Human MESMER

    Charr (class not released)

    All of my posts are either intelligent, thought provoking, funny, satirical, sarcastic or intentionally disrespectful. Take your pick.

    I get banned in the forums for games I love, so lets see if I do better in the forums for games I hate.

    I enjoy the serenity of not caring what your opinion is.

    Sylvari ??? - I don't know what profession yet... the ele was going to be my first choice, but the attunement system has spoiled that.

    Asura ranger - mostly melee/pet just to screw with people's preconceptions

    ??? guardian - don't know which race I will make a guardian, but I will play it only offensively, again, just to screw with people's preconceptions.

  • starstar Member Posts: 1,101

    Charr 'Gunner'

    Human 'Mesmer'

    Norn Ranger

    Sylvari 'Assassin'

    :P

    My main MAIN charaacter will probably be a:

    CHARR RANGER/GUNNER

    Another class that i will for sure make is:

    NORN WARRIOR/GUARDIAN

    And maybe some "beta" char. too. You know, see what they are like and what not.

    Human Guardian, Human Elementalist....in loving memory of my monk and ele mains.

    Really looking forward to playing the Sylvari and Norn as well.  Maybe Necro/'Mesmer' for the Sylvari.  Ranger for the Norn.  I'm not sure what I'll roll for my Charr or Asura character, but I may be leaning twoards the 'Assasin' class for asura.

    Norn/ whatever the gun class is......has been decided since I knew i could play a norn and the gunner class since the rumor started

  • KerosienKerosien Member UncommonPosts: 56

    Charr Necromancer all the way

  • GennadiosGennadios Member Posts: 209

    This may sound kind of stupid, but my human characters will be dating Norn exclusively in GW2.

    *ahem*

    Human Guardian, Human Ranger, Human Mesmer(?)
