The question is, which class is the most diverse, what class is the jack of all trades?
What class can have the most diverse builds of all classes?
I know all classes are very diverse, but which one is king of the mountain?
Whats your opinion, what class and why?
Please explain your opinion

SO far in my experience...definetly Engineer.
Has everything from self heals to group heals, support abilities for self and for others, ability to tank with turrets....can dps effectively enough but isn't king of it...
From my experience so far it seem's either guardian or elementalist. Didn't play engineer much though.
Guardian has the the various boon's and heal's along with it's virtue's.
Elementalist has 4 different attunement's, and can summon more elemental weapon's.
I have not played all the classes yet but I believe the 3 classes that are going to be the most diverse are the Thief, Necormancer and the Engineer.
The Thief because it is not your normal "Rogue" class and I expect to see some "Tank" builds with it.
The Engineer because it can do a little of everything from what I have seen.
The Necromancer because it is not your normal "Necro" class and I am planning on building a tap tanking Necro, a Necro that is built to take a ton of damage while dealing out damage that heals. I used this in EQ1 but the class was not built for it and it was limited to when it was useful. In GW2, I think a tap tanking Necro is going to surprise people in PvP and PvE when I can take a ton of damage and keep myself healed. (we will see if it works out the way I plan or not.)
Just my 2 cents.
Sooner or Later
Personally i think its the Ranger,
I have seen some great support builds, good controll builds, defense tanklike builds, High glasscanon DPS builds, condition builds, Mellee builds, single target ranged builds, High movement builds, Pet builds, spirit builds, traplayer builds.
the only think that this class lacks is a decent long ranged AoE build
Tough while doing all these things with a single class, the ranger offcourse cant do them all at the same time.

I don't think guardian could be considered for best jack of all trades due to the lack of ranged single-target DPS.
