When hanging out with friends in discord or whatever, what games do you all tend to sit down and play with one another? For me it’s some combination of Valorant, Guild Wars 2, and Omega Strikers but I’m curious what everyone else plays with their friends :)
If you have any PvP questions, hit me up! I actually just finished grinding out Ascension last month and really enjoyed the process – especially because i have a background in both fighting games and battlerite, which both translate somewhat well to guild wars, and I’m always happy to help someone learn :) And dont be afraid, that’s what ranks are for! Even if someone gets mad at you for “holding them back” remember they’re in that mmr bracket with you for a reason and they’re just mad they’re not playing to their own expectation, and it’s not fair for you to hold yourself to some random person’s standard :)
What specs do you play?
My Engineer is my main at the moment, and most of the time I roll through content as Mechanist (because having a pet is so convenient, and the low intensity build is great for ensuring I can play for long periods without my RSI flaring up). When I’ve dabbled in WvW before, I’ve done so as Scrapper because I prefer support classes and Scrapper was a pretty good healer back then (I think they might still be okay now?) c:
I know PvP is a little different, so I’m not sure what I’d play for that. What would you recommend?
That makes sense! It’s cool that engi has become a lot more friendly to lower intensity players, i like that a lot. It used to have a shared reputation with ele as the piano class, so it’s fun seeing that change :)
Tbh, there’s a ton of builds that are good enough for PvP – I play willbender (arguably too much) in every mode and I think it’s really fun and straightforward, but it’s not a low-apm build by any stretch Scrapper’s really good in pvp right now actually, might be worth looking at hardstuck for some builds in that vein? Support tempest and heal guardian are also both excellent and worth playing if you want a support build, highly recommended
