has higher defend of all but really cant tank is true

I am guessing i am kinda new to this genre which im not sure whether i just dont like the genre or i have not fully understand what the game can offer.

PvE dynamic event feels like the typical "kill mobs, defend someone and so on" in a very nicely made chain events. Or just like the Hearts events in a chain of events.

Love the 5th skill that push the enemy away. And it feels satisfying when you manage to do that.

Should have gone with ranger instead for the BWE.

guardian is all about reactionary defense...
timing the aegis the right time and blocks will be the key between dying or not...

u cant outheal damage unfortunately

remember: there is no holy trinity is GW2... if u dun dodge, aegis or block; u will still die as fast as any other profession out there

ermm about the pve thingy, the diff is that gw2 let u complete it with few options, or combination of the activities. also it becomes joint effort when there are players doing the same event nearby, let you feel more like contributing something to the community.
this is something new to me, coming from wow, aion, lineage2, and few others minor mmo's.

dynamic events is ok for lower levels, but the higher level maps are so empty that you'd have to solo the events.. and most are impossible with the high ping

Yea, i know that but at the end, it is still just the quest that ask you to do a range of the typical stuff in an area. I do think it is a nice feature as i can do different task when i replay the event.

Rather than going specifically for the hearts, I just explore randomly and join any event I see. Like protecting a place from Centaur, then there was a kill the champion troll which I did twice, killing a queen wasp. At times I just go find places I can get skill points or find vista, while doing that will randomly stumble into event.

i remember i read somewhere in the dev post that the more elaborate dynamic events will be available in the higher lvl area

maybe the dynamic events in the starting zone are meant to be easy to introduce players into the whole system of dynamic events...

btw any ele's having a good time in spvp? i find it kinda hard now compared to bwe2, scepter/dag build used to be very powerful but now it seems the game have shifted to dag/dag again...

Mesmer GS/sword w pistol deals so much dmg with illusion. I pity the rangers that comes after me

Hmmm i thought illu deals 0 dmg?

May I know whats the hassle that we will b facing? Thanks

illu deals zero dmg but phantasm deals dmg.
pistal phantasm for FTW

deng i thought i could stand there tank like a boss in pve haha.

eu copy can only login from eu region.
have fun contacting support to sort out this mess.

local dealer/seller are bringing in EU copies of GW2

according to ANet if you buy EU version you have physically be located in EU to be able to log in to the game

Malaysia is categorized as under US region so you need to US version to be able to log in.

Someone did mention if you get EU version and if you can't log in, you can contact ANet support and have them change your region from EU to US but so far nobody has solid evidence that it has been done before....

Moreover they will have a hard time to find which is the real one. Mesmers also can shatter their illusion for damage and conditions. Together with mirror image skill and invisible at 25% hp trait it's not easy to take down mesmer.

.... guys, i was actually just only decide plan to roll a asura engineer...
any recommend?

beta i was actually on slyvari elementalist which i actually quite like it.
but i was dying like hell, cause most rpg and so on i always play melee, now plan to change to caster.

Play what you like

wanna share my experience

this is first game in gw2. its been a long time since i play mmo.

gw2 is not like warcraft, its more to hack and slash style.

first i roll out melee guardian but i find i lack of dps and also survivability. then i change to scepter/weapon spirit playstyle.

it offers more dps (the spirit weapons is OP when 1v1) and survivability but i feels like it still lack of dps because of the scepter skills. ( i suck at melee)

then i change to ranger. this profession is a beast! Longbow rapid fire can deal 5k+ damage. I kill alot, survive many times but not kind of soloing.

need a partner to take damage for me. quickening zephy + rapid fire = 1/4 enemy hp.

i found that using melee is hard to hit enemy in pvp than pve. although using a longsword, still hard. i think i'm suite more in range playstyle.

other classes that i tried :

Engineer (dual pistol) = lack dps than ranger but more survivability because of the elixir.

Thief (dual pistol) = pistol burst spam is good but I'm wasting theft true ability because i dunno use shadow step.

btw

Greatsword + Shield

I found 1 thing, knockback doesn't push mobs off cliffs. Quite sad, really.
