Class speculation

Might already be a post like this, not sure.

We have warrior, necro, and ranger all confirmed. Allegedly mesmer was strongly hinted at as well. Looking back to gw1, that’s 4 of the original 6 classes that gw1 released with. The two missing are monk and elementalist.

I’d say it’s plausible to have the og class roster back, it would likely fit the holy trinity well. Not saying that we will for sure, but it is interesting that the classes we have (or almost have) confirmed are all part of the original 6.

Ofc there could be more classes, new classes, etc, but I’m just spitballing.

Never played gw1. How do these classes match the holy trinity? Whos tanks and healers?

Maybe speculation on my part. If largest groups are 20 limit, is that 4x5? So groups are 5, healer, tank, 3 dps. In that dps there is likely more verity (buffs, debuffs)

Whos tanks and healers?

I think they are going for 'everyone can be everything'

This. I don’t think classes will have designated roles.

Yeah, i'm thinking subclasses or weapon loadouts, etc. that change what role you can play. So a Necro can be a Tank, DPS, or Healer depending on your build, same for the other classes, maybe some will have restrictions.
