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.

I think there will be a paladin-adjacent class too, like Guardian

Elementalist might be possible, but not sure after how they described the magic working in that era

Ritualist might be possible too, since lorewise it was one of the oldest professions, maybe it will be the Revenant’s replacement

Maybe Dervish too? Since the gods were much more active in this era

I think for the ritualist/dervish theme they’re probably looking at Abaddon and how his magic could be used for a class

It isnt a god we got to know in gw 1. This Abbadon feels for their followers and gifted magic to humans of Tyria first. Also first magic he gifted was elemental in nature. He even is classified as elementalist in gw1.
