BIS Roaming

I don't consider solo roaming builds, period. You're always going to have a better shot running a roaming squad than trying to go it solo. 😏

What is your go to profession and what do you like to roam on? If you are not running meta what meta do you encounter on your roams?

Look, initially I played a lot of Engi ,specifically the scrapper as soon as it was introduced into the game. Then Anet made some changes that I didn't like at all (imo it ruined that profession) and so I put it aside.
Today I mainly play warrior: I have 2 builds that I made and which basically are not the "usual reheated soup that "the meta proposes or that everyone generally runs with.
A berserker confiusion burst when I want to roam solo.
A spellbreaker for medium big scale roaming, versatile enough to have its own even in zergfight

I've played a bunch of classes and builds. The only ones I've never played that much are ele and rev.
I play the thief mainly to troll,when i feel like doing nothing lol : gear ministrel, perma evade and I get chased for hours

A confusion burst? I think i have to log my warr and check skills where to find that confusion because im confused.

I think the people chasing a minstrel thief will eventually figure it out.

Chasing a thief in general is pointless even as a thief.

just dodge those dudes, don’t give em content. Easy.

As the title suggests ! Which class is best in slot for roaming?

 

Are there trade offs between classes? What class is unnoticed for roamers and secretly op? As in not yet meta? Anyone wanna share some secrets?

 

EDIT:

I want to hear some opinions and discuss but if you can support it by data and logic i would be even more happy!

While roaming, I am not sure I would say there is a BiS, but more counter builds. Example, if roaming on a full melee warrior than Harbi would seem OP since you have to close distance, but then harbi with a ranged roamer is easy meat. Ele in general has lots of build variations so they are an unknown until you get into. All classes currently have roaming build options.  Personally if you are roaming and aren't using templates then I recommend a roaming build that can work solo, in a havoc and jumping into a zerg. You won't be meta but, if you intend to roam and be in and out, better to be ready to go back to being solo when splitting off and rejoining.
