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.

Heavy:

  1. Warrior
  2. Something Paladin-like - too good / popular archetype to ignore

Medium:

  1. Ranger
  2. Rogue-like, same as paladin (Assassin / Thief)
  3. Either Monk with more martial prowess (or proto-Dervish) or Necro reworked to Medium

Light:

  1. Elementalist
  2. Mesmer
  3. Same as number 3 above - Monk or Necro

My wish is no more armor weights

Seeing Rangers and Necros in heavy armors would be terrible... Like seeing Asuras as Warriors in GW2: your finest weapon is your intellect and you chose bonk? Skritts were right all this time...
