slowpoke.1894 Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Hi. Have played in the past but only to level 20 or so. Want to give this game another go. Couldn't get into it in the past but really want to give it a good try.Wondering if there is one server or another better for a noob...also if there is an unofficial RP server? Don't care about the wvw ranking, just concerned about a friendly community.Also, trying to decide what to class to play. Want to avoid OP or fotm classes. I played engineer in the past, but would like to try something different. Which classes do you see least in day to day playing? I've seen the census numbers but have read they are skewed because they don't account for toons that are made but barely played. In short, looking for x classes are OP and everywhere....here is what I rarely see or see less of.Thanks much for any help and guidance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kodiak.4213 Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Don't worry too much about your server - everyone plays on a central "mega-server". Your server choice only matters when it comes to WvW, which you stated you don't care about your ranking. So feel free to chose whatever. I see warriors less and less each day. I'm having a ton of fun in PVE with a power based Spellbreaker running dagger/dagger. It might not be optimal, but it's fun. Engies don't seem too plentiful and neither do thiefs. I'm loving holosmith sword/shield and deadeye pistol/pistol. All the other classes seem to have decent representation. Especially Necro Scourges, Guardian Firebrands, and Ele Weavers.

slowpoke.1894 Posted October 8, 2017 Author Share Posted October 8, 2017 Thanks much. Was thinking about a thief or possibly a ranger. So I will give them both a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altair.8402 Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Don't worry about what's OP and just play what you want. Balance changes every couple of months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DebraKadabra.5278 Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Unofficial RP servers are Tarnished Coast for NA and Piken Square for EU, but as already mentioned server only really matters for WvW these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slowpoke.1894 Posted October 9, 2017 Author Share Posted October 9, 2017 Thanks again for the guidance. I do happen to be on Tarnished Coast so that is good. Now I am trying out both Thief and Ranger and need to decide which to stick with :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kodiak.4213 Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 I think ranger will be more forgiving. Thiefs are really squishy until you get used to them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyShroud.2865 Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 If you are going to do WvW, finding a guild is more important than finding a server. Unfortunately, anet forces you to choose a server first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
