Hello everyone, i'll soon be back playing GW to unlock stuff for GW2 but i didn't play for over 2 years. Do you have some advices or warning of things i should know? And what can i do with a Monk, a Warrior, a Dervish and an Ele.
Suggestions, advices and warning will be welcome. Thanks in advance.

Just play through at your own pace until you get back into it and get a feel for all the new content. Keep an eye of your hall of monuments to see if there's anything that won't take too much effort to get, but don't rush to unlock it all or you'll get burnt out and stop playing again

I only stopped playing 'cause i moved to brazil. Where i lived before moving to Rio there was no good net. And i wouldn't dare risk playing on a 56kbit line.
In no more than 10 days i'll have a 4000kbps line. And i'll finally play.

Advice: Play the Dervish... it got super-buffed in the past few months.

Also, 7 heroes.

These days, with an ele, you can machine-gun-spam Infuse Health at everyone in your party, and auto-heal yourself to full health/energy with every cast, allowing you to blortch out a never-ending stream of instant, giant spike heals.

It's the "ER Bonder" build.

Welcome back, I just did the same thing about 4 months ago and I came back as an Ele.

I would recommend going thru Nightfall to get your heroes, and then EoTN for the Asura, Norn, and Deldrimor skills/buffs.

The build I used for my ele was e/rit SoS spammer,
but when I ran Discordway (3 necro build) i used E/A AP Caller.

PvX is super helpful, just look under meta builds and you will find something worth using.
(sabway, discordway, etc.)

Good luck!
