Got to talking about this with a couple of friends last night and I wondered:

Which Guild Wars Profession are you?

Now obviously I don't mean which do you play, but what profession are you in real life and why? For example, one of my GW buddies is a dentist; we decided that makes him a Monk ... Another is a keen amatuer Martial Artist so she's an Assassin (too easy I know).

As for me, I'm a bookmaker, so the general consensus seems to be that makes me a Mesmer; although I don't do the Riverdance. Ever.

What about you?

I do a lot of boxing, so I guess that makes me a Warrior. Funny, because that's what I play as mostly.

Looking completely superficially at the classes - I'd have to be a ranger.
Tree-hugging-hippy FTW!
(Without the outfits though!)

I never do the ranger in game these days though.

I'm a researcher into robotics, so I guess I'll say fast cast air mesmer.

I'm a psychologist and I screw with people's minds.

That makes me a mesmer, I guess.

Oh and -cough cough- lots of points into domination.

I'm surprised I haven't come across one of those blog quiz thingies, "Which Guild Wars profession are you?" with the questions in it.

1) Primary Attributes: What qualities do you have that are critical in your current field of work?
a) Doing work quickly and meeting all the deadlines. (Fast Casting)
b) Being able to take advantage of other people's failures by observation and putting their mistakes to good use. (Soul Reaping)
c) Being skilled enough to complete work without much effort or thought, so I hardly ever burn out. (Expertise)
d) Physical strength and endurance. (Strength)
e) Popular, able to work well with people and understanding their needs. (Divine Favor)
f) I just have lots of energy and passion for my work that keeps me going. (Energy Storage)
g) I have the killer instinct - the ability to spot business opportunities from a mile off. (Critical Strikes)
h) Being able to create new innovations and improve on current policies. (Spawning Power)
i) I am a natural leader. (Doh, leadership.)
j) I enjoy learning as I work, and every new project I finish inspires me to do more. (Mysticism)

I tried.

I do weightlifting and play a lot of rugby, so i'm a warrior. wish i was a dervish though...

RotteN · Jan 17, 2008, 09:57 AM // 09:57

rugbyplayer aswell (lock forward), so warrior

but i also yell a lot and i'm used to leading stuff. So maybe paragon :P

I'll go with warrior though (and guess what i play in GW ...)

Level 2 Gargoyle.

DreamRunner · Jan 17, 2008, 10:37 AM // 10:37

I do a lot of running and weights. I used to play rugby but stopped when I left school.

I played warrior but I actually do a bachelor of arts.

im an Ettin, as i got a big hammer to smash things up when i get pissed.

Natures Spirt · Jan 17, 2008, 11:25 AM // 11:25

I would have to say im a elementalist cuz sometimes i use the elements to my advantage but im a little bit paragon cuz Im a great leader in real life

(Creepy one of my favourite characters is a E/P)

Rhedd · Jan 17, 2008, 11:25 AM // 11:25

I must be a Ranger.

The US Army told me I was.

You know, the Army would've been a LOT more fun if we would've had Moas!

Gun Pierson · Jan 17, 2008, 11:38 AM // 11:38

I'm a technician/constructor, I fix, replace and place new stuff. That would make me a monk or ritualist I guess which I happen to be.

ensoriki · Jan 17, 2008, 11:45 AM // 11:45

Assassin
Im skinny
many people don't like me.
Many of my skills suck.
And I don't fight if I think I'll lose.

Vaal 84 · Jan 17, 2008, 11:51 AM // 11:51

I'm a surveyor, so like the stone summit surveyors that would make me a ranger. which is handy because its also the prof of my main character !

I have a tendency to hang back, stay quiet and make wierd contributions to discussions (in case you haven't already noticed), so I'd be what? A Weapon Spell Rit?

Kusandaa · Jan 17, 2008, 12:39 PM // 12:39

Probably a paragon - they shout a lot and well... I talk a lot

. Without the frilly underpants please D:.

I'm a necro in-game though o.o. Suits my husbands more than me IRL (he's a goth x]).

Esan · Jan 17, 2008, 12:45 PM // 12:45

I stalk in the shadows at night and feed on unsuspecting humans, so I'd have to say I'm a touch ranger.

Cargan · Jan 17, 2008, 12:48 PM // 12:48

I sit around and don't do much. I guess that would make me a pug monk.
