Profession combo question - Guild Wars Forums

I'm returning to the game from a long hiatus and I'm wondering which is better: D/A or A/D?

Or any other suggestions anyone may have.

A/D is great for crit scythe and grentgs grasp spiker. D/A is overal alwesome D/A lyssa daggers hits crazy high with aoe dmg. I'd go A/d tho so u can be able to farm with A/e
Derv primary can't farm at all

for farming anyway

It's your choice...the majority will prefer the A/D for its dommage, farming, tanking, everything, but I prefer the D/(A) in ur case, but im D/Any ^^. Anyway, I prefer the D/A just cause IMO it's more enjoyable for me than the A/D is...Don't know why, but I liked it. I'm the kind of person that wants to see high numbers on screen, with both classes, u will see em, just get a good build

. Anyway, my vote goes for D/A.

D/A has more variety than A/D, while and A/D can farm your stuck with being an A/D. You could change to another profession but that would sort of kill the idea of playing dervish (Which I assume your trying to do).

With a D/A you have the option of totaly flipping your build.

I like the look of dervishes, a dervish is what I played through all of Nightfall with before I took my break. I've always liked their style of play, but I don't really want to play through Nightfall again..I guess that's my overall dilemma.

Just get to Consulate and level up in Proph/Factions.

I got a ferry to LA at level 5, I think, then got a run to Ascalon, and leveled my Para in Prophecies. It was great
