Dear DE, If the squad isn't full, (which on my server is the norm), they will be happy to have you no matter what you play. Having said that, I've decided recently that I much prefer WvW roaming, and highly recommend it. I've found my Necro easily takes out camps alone, and I often hook up with other drop in, drop out roamers that I meet, "on the road", to take larger targets than you might expect is possible. The creative means in which this is accomplished is fun and often really exciting to participate in. Sweet Freedom. You can join a zerg anytime you like to help take out SMC or similar without joining the squad. And then? Go off to do your own thing afterwards without a hello or farewell needed. I'd like to point out here that I've joined up and played with some great commanders while new and learning the maps, and do appreciate what they do. But honestly? It surprises me how little they utilize the skilled gypsies I am having the pleasure to bump into these days, now that I'm enjoying the roamer play style. What ever you decide to do, it's your time. Don't waste it playing for somebody else's pleasure. Terri aka Mayrynn of Stormbluff

Thanks for your encouragement. I dumped WoW because I hated being told how to play, how to gear. (Pure drudgery if you ask me.) Re: Your thoughts on learning styles. You are 100% correct. Being less analytical in nature and leaning more toward the creative, my builds are based entirely on how what I try, "feels". And as a result I love playing all of my characters! I solo play them successfully in PVE and WvW. As well, I enjoy PVP quite often. (All modes with the same build btw...) No I won't ever be a tournament player, but as I never watch or pay any attention to that anyway... ah well! So what do I do in GW2? I have fun. ;-) Furthermore, the only time I haven't had fun? Is when I've tried copying and using others ideas of what the, 'best builds" are. Life is full of people who want to tell you how to live it. Don't give in. Just play. ;-)
