Fladmast.6021 Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 I am a returning player, and need your help to choose a melee class: Open world: - strong solo - can survive fighting elite enemies - decent mobility Dungeons: - big damage - doesnt't need to buff the group - close to or in meta General: - Fun, fluid combat - Visceral and nice looking effects - medium skill ceiling What do you reccomend?

Dadnir.5038 Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 OW: Anything can do that. Dungeon: The meta isn't settled yet. General: Reaper without a doubt. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puck.3697 Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 I'd say warrior or revenant based on - Specifically maining a elite and not a proffession can go side ways pretty quickly. I'd likely throw down revenant as renegade has some very strong builds with alot of ranged access which in quite a few circumstances can be very strong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lan Deathrider.5910 Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 All three check the boxes more or less, just tinker with the three and see which is more inline with your personal playstyle preferences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanAlcedo.3281 Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 Thats the build i use for Openworld and Story. http://gw2skills.net/editor/?PKABgilnlJwuYTMKWJOWL6veA-zRIYR0zfKtICCUBEhEIbhgiPIhxG4B-e Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Boz.2038 Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 Reaper is hella self sustaining and well rounded. Revenant has a nice toolkit, is comfy. Warrior? Wait two more weeks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stx.4857 Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 I haven't played Revenant. But Reaper checks all your boxes. Super strong in open world, fun to play, edgy! Great at cleaving down groups of mobs, doesn't need to buff others, supplies its own might and Quickness too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fueki.4753 Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 Noone can tell you what's the most fun to you. You'll have to test them yourself to see what you enjoy most. My current favourite for melee enjoyment is Dagger/Dagger Soulbeast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hybrid Willbender: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?PWwAw+tlVwUZdMM2IW2WbxUA-zRZYchRGMb0NFSgFQpRQHJgDzyjeaA-e Modus operandi: Charge with F1 against the main foe, release Purging Flames, roundhouse kick everyone with Whirling Light, place Symbol of Blades and unleash Zealot's Defense. Recharge F1 ASAP and engulf yourself in flames with the torch skills (you can run greatsword as secondary if you want). You'll get stacks of 37+ burns while having ~20K HP and over 3K armor and large stacks of migth. Most of things will melt in seconds, witout even beinga ble to do anything, and the build has decent sustain. The build has a lot of mobility and a good flow casting skills which remembers some fighting games, in the sense of trying to nail combos and air juggles but instead doing everything to proc as much burns as you can. The build is very flexible in gear: dire, carrion, viper, grieving, trailblazer or celestial, everything works! With condi damage over 2K and over 90% burning duration, is entirely ahead over any pure strike build you could run, specially in the expansions at which tons of mobs have huge amounts of armor or inmense HP levels.
