I made a guy mesmer, and I couldn't imagine making another character for PVE.

Necro/Ele had the most retarded skill bar going as well.

Necro is the only class I feel comfortable playing. Had a few others chars but I always go back to Necro.

A nice, camp male E/Mo. Looking back at my old screenies (before I learnt that the magic shift button hides the interface, even) his skill bar could almost make me cry these days.
I still have him, and in praise of his status as my first character, he's was given a nice set of 15k armour... before becoming a mule and being effectively replaced by my second Ele :$

My first was my Ranger.

I remember wanting a "finesse" fighter, and Expertise sounded like a better way to get there than Strength. That, and I liked the over all look of the Rangers to the Warriors. So, I rolled a Ranger and went out of my way to make him a Warrior secondary.

This was about a week after Guild Wars: Prophecies went live. I've been mostly playing that character that way since then, even against prevailing logic and sometimes my own better judgement.

I always was intrigued by the elements and thought the elementalist was going to be more powerful then everyone else, of course i was wrong and right at the same time

Ele was my first char, but Ranger was what I first beat the game with. Then deleted her for my monk a couple of days before the sf update. My ele went through soooooo many re-ceations, as did my monk I might add...

The very first character I created was a monk, I think, but I played him for like two minutes and then the bad memories of playing a priest in WoW and a cleric in Everquest came back and I quickly decided not to.

So I voted ranger, since that was the first character I played past the tutorial. This was back in the days of.. well, last week. That ranger is still my main character but I'm playing a dervish now because I got tired of shooting a bow from a distance.

Mesmer. Heck I've gone through all of prophies and I just got into Vaabi in Nightfall and I still only have my mesmer. I just never feel like creating a new character for some reason.

My first character back in April '05 was a Mesmer, everyone was telling me "be a warrior, mesmers are too hard to learn" I think that playing a good mesmer requires a certain knowledge of all the other professions.I chose one as my first profession and it has helped to educate me in the ways of GW.

My first was an E/Me, but he's gone. Then I went male R/W, gone to. My female mes is gone also. Finally I kept my female R/M, she just got her neckrid horseman.

I started with an aeromancer, I liked the idea of lightning magic, but i dumped him when I realized how long it would take for me to get lightning magic. Then I went with a ranger and didn't like the build. I just didn't quite understand how to effectively use mesmers, so I got rid of her.

Hehe, necromancer.

Back in the day (when prophecies was first released) me and my friends had no clue how anything in guild wars worked. So we held meetings, created a website and such and decided that I needed to be able to do some nice damage for our guild while still being able to heal. So I was a n/mo that way I could raise the dead and keep our guild alive!

(Long live the n00b days)

Did everyone pick ranger because when it was released the LotR movies had just finished up and they're Aragorn fanboys?
