The world needs fewer mobas. Too many lovely ones trying to compete with LoL and Dota. HOTS is the only other good one, mostly because it does things slightly different from the others, and because Blizzard.

I'm not looking to powerlevel or anything but I will probably be a chef because that's the kind of dumb poo poo I like. Thanks for the tips!

In terms of survivability, in my personal opinion warriors and necromancers are king because they have crazy health pools. Necromancer even has what boils down to a second health bar on top of being tied for the highest base HP. And warrior is just ridiculous and their healing signet is super dumb, in the good way, during leveling. Honestly though, play whatever you find the most fun or interesting. Elementalist, thief, and mesmer are probably (again, in my opinion) the most fragile classes but even then, there's ways to get around this, either through gear, extra dodges or kiting/using ranged attacks. Ultimately just have fun with the game, nothing is overly difficult throughout the leveling experience so long as your gear isn't ridiculously outdated, and even then you can be fine.

Necro is really fun, super strong and can solo most content. Downed state 1 heals you so it's super forgiving.

Two necros almost did a lot of the Hearts and Minds challenge mode, just from being able to get rez'd through downed state 1 and Canach coming to help. We also had like 100 stacks of bleed.

A friend wants to try out an MMO without diving headfirst into WOW due to too many poopsock tragedies in our social circle. Figured I'd let her try this on my account that was purchased at launch, so no F2P. Will she have fun without HoT?

Yes. The base game is more than worth playing through.

Core game is not.

Thanks. Second question: I told her to delete all my characters, so she can start on an alive server with a strong community of local language speaking folks. But I remember reading something about people not being able to join popular, i.e. full, realms. Is that true and is there a way to circumvent that?

Server only matters if you plan to do WvW pvp - for everything else it's all linked together into mega servers. Maguuma is, unfortunately, almost always full and would require waiting for it to open again if you do decide to WvW, no idea if there's a way around that.

And the dynamic map structure is cross-servers so if she transfers to any NA one that is open, she can join goons (god help her) and maps will still have plenty of people in them. The bank transfers stuff, so toss everything you can into it before deleting.

Anyone know of some fairly recent videos showing/discussing the classes? It's been so long since I played I barely remember anything about any of them, and I played just long enough to get the elite specs on those characters I had so everything I look at is level 80 elite specs with a crazy amount of options to go through.

Levleing a crafting profession to max nets you 7 levels; you will get 11 levels if you have an xp booster on. Also, leveling cooking requires a guide because all the recipes are very obtuse and also requires having done a lot of exploration and unlocked a bunch of karma vendors so you can buy some of the untradeable items needed for the best recipes. It is technically the cheapest crafting to level but requires a lot of work. Protip: use a boster for character xp and a booster for crafting xp and you will need far less resources/money to level a crafting profession AND you will get more levels out of it. For crafting level up guides use the guides located here, they are far more efficient and up to date than the guides that will appear at the top of google searches. Erdricks posted:Probably have more fun without HoT than with HoT. This is the weirdest case of "everything was better when i was young" i have seen in any MMO. I am starting to think it is a meme. HoT is amazingly fun with huge sprawling maps with lots of stuff to do and secrets to find and you are really rewarded for exploring. The vanilla maps are all flat as a pancake and really loving boring. HoT is literally the only reason i fell in love with this game.

I guess it depends on when you played HoT zones, at launch or 6 months later when they were fixed. Still, I like the 5 new zones in LS2 more than the HoT, LS1 or vanilla zones.

Yeah as someone who didn't really bother to get back into the game around HoT's release because it seemed like people were down on it at the time, I've found I like the game a lot more with Heart of Thorns. I regret not jumping in at launch. It certainly is far more grind-heavy due to the required masteries to fully explore each map, but every map is more fun to explore and do the meta event than any base game map. If there's one thing to be said about the base game, it's that it's a large amount of content that is consistently dull across the board. But of course I've just been playing the past month or two, so I have no idea how much better any of the game is now in contrast to how it was before.
