My first character was a mesmer. I found this profession difficult to play. I guess I was expecting high instant direct damage that most spell casters would do, without the damage only happening under certain conditions. I got frustrated with the profession that half way through pre-searing, I deleted it and started on a warrior class. After completing all the quests in pre-searing with just hacking & slashing with a sword, the mesmer profession still bugged me. So I decided to try mesmer again and this time I slogged away trying to get use to the profession and see what it was capable of. The mesmer is now my favourite character to play, and I feel it is the most powerful out of my characters.

(Avatar : Leona Dragonfell says "No!")

Characters are currently being worked through the PvE story, doing all the quests, missions plus bonus. Progression through story is some times slow as characters enjoy exploring new areas, taking in the sights and seeing what is around, and appreciating what the developers have done. Rather than completing the game with one character first, I'm working 3 at the same time - swapping characters when I fancy a change and reaching what I consider a milestone/waypoint.

I now have 3 level 20 characters in Riverside Province - Mesmer, Warrior and Ranger. These characters are female and all have the first name of 'Leona' - taken from the lead character of the Anime 'Dominion Tank Police'. I have an Ele in Ascalon City, but after leaving pre-searing with this character I don't have the desire to play this profession atm.

When taking a break from progressing the PvE story, characters tend to hang out in main towns and answer any question that other players ask. If someone is after crafting/collector items then, depending on their mood and the quantity, they either sell or give them away for free. If characters fancy some fighting then they visit mission areas that has already been done, join a random pug to make up the party number and help out. Even though they've done and know the mission and bonus, they don't lead as they don't want to spoil it for any mission first timers who want to work it out for themselves. They just provide the support in fights. Only if the party is struggling with where to go and what to do, then the direction will be pointed out and advice offered.

I only read the first page of this thread and wow none of you guys are brave enough to start with a Mesmer.

My first character was a me/no Nadeen The Purple.
She now goes between me/e, me/n and will never be deleted.

I created and deleted a number of elm and necros after but none going further that Ascalon. They were just storage people.

Now I have 4 full charcters done the game with all skills for my primery professions unlocked.

Darth Phobos Male warrior
Darth Psp Male Necromancer
NADEEN Felmale Monk

I never gotten into elms that much, I deleted so many of them.

R A C · Jan 13, 2006, 04:31 AM // 04:31

When I finally got the game after months of waiting for it to go on sale, I had already done tons of research and decided that my favorite characters were rangers and necros. I had played maplestory and had wanted an archer instead of my assasin which I wasted my summer on. So my first character was a ranger/mo named "Radioactive Cheese" because rangers rock and I wanted some decent healing capabilities as well.
Got to 8 before searing. I tried keeping a pet but didn't like the space it takes on my bar. So I tossed my pet and finished the game. Then I went and got a lizard pet who is now a hearty lizard named Old Cheese. Currently my r/mo runs around pwning everything in sight. Especially versus undead mobs using my lizard, barrage and judge's insight. Currently saving for 15k Drakescale armor because it looks the best. Although as soon as I got the chance, I bought druid's for the sweet energy boost. And with 13 expertise, that extra 7 energy lasts for quite a few barrages. Other favorite combos of mine include poison arrow+kindle arrows and trap builds. Quick shot's fun, but in pve, barrage has so many more uses.
2nd/3rd characters are my n/mo and mo/me started both about a week ago, both lvl6 or so. Radioactive Decay and Radioactive Monk are there names.

Griff Mon · Jan 13, 2006, 04:49 AM // 04:49

My first char is Grif Mon a W/E (yes, I mispelled my screen name and can't figure out how to fix it) He has completed the game and I use him for farming and when my guild needs a meat shield in FoW, UW, or SF. He does some PvP and has most elites and skills. Some I just won't buy for 1K each because they seem pointless.

I have also brought along two others who are ascended and decked out with some capping yet to do, a Monk known as Little Miss Rowie, and a Elementalist known as Fire Nub. I have since activated a second account and am working on the other three characters so I will hopefully have all six possible primary professions fully ascended and ready to be called upon as the situation warrants.

d4nowar · Jan 13, 2006, 05:16 AM // 05:16

First Character I ever made was during the WPE. His name was Delicious Dan, and he was a R/Me. Note: This was pre-rangers-getting-beat-into-the-ground-with-a-nerf-bat era. So I was basically as effective as an elementalist.

My first post-release character was Keyboard Commando, a R/Mo. He remains the only character that I made it through all of the missions with, because I'm too lazy to get those 3 extra skill points once I get to ember light camp. I deleted him to make room for a 4th pve character since I've always saved one spot for pvp.

sights2 · Jan 13, 2006, 05:18 AM // 05:18

my first char is a lvl 20 w/mo named balrog jones. he is big black man with a mohawk like me.

mr jones helps out my other chars now, expirements with builds, and continues to help me learn the game.

im now running a female n/me and am happy as a clam - she's hot and she has an exciting job

Morangen · Jan 13, 2006, 05:41 AM // 05:41

My first character was a Mo/W named Morangen Dromere. I made him during the last BWE and I loved the idea of this short bald monk guy running around with a giant maul (and when I got the war pick as part of the pre order deal it was even better). He started out mainly hammering and smiting with the occational heal to those other weaklings that got hurt

That build did pretty good for until I got to lions arch, then I decided that I died to often from tanking and should switch to more of a healer because thats what groups needed anyways. I actually beat the last few missions with him last month so he still sees alot of action.

Mo/R9 · Jan 13, 2006, 05:46 AM // 05:46

My first character was an Elementalist/Ranger. I deleted him after a few days. I then tried the Warrior class, it didn't work out for me. I then started my Monk. She worked really well, I could easily get into groups, I had a talent for healing and things were rosy, apart from the odd bit of verbal abuse which was soon squashed by lack of healing said abuser.

I got sick of looking at red bars.

I now have a R/W, whom is my favourite character to date. I use him for running and general day-to-day activities. I have had him run all through the game up to Ice Caves of Sorrow and I am getting my droks armor now. Seeing as I have already finished the game on my monk I feel no shame in doing this.

Blessed Winds · Jan 13, 2006, 06:30 AM // 06:30

Name: Shadow Artemis
Class: Ranger/Monk
Level: 20
Status: @Hell's Precipice
She made it to the ring of fire with a crappy skill bar with stuff like powershot and stuff, then I started updating her build =P Love to have her trap in UW =)

Barinthus · Jan 13, 2006, 07:07 AM // 07:07

Sarak Layghlin - he's my very first! A ranger - I had a hunch that I'd love playing this class despite everybody else dissin' them. I was right. Depiste having othre 3 characters which I do enjoy playing, Sarak is still my favorite.

I love this guy and will never delete him. Fierce and cunning in combat, loyal to his friends, have a sense of humor, strict code of honor and will never break his word, and he can be stubborn to the point where it's really ridicilous.

Despite being a ranger he seems always ending up being the leader of groups he's in.

Ninjutsu Honor Code · Jan 13, 2006, 08:45 AM // 08:45

My first character was a warrior/monk because i love fights where i can get up close and personal (im a closecombat guy in every game i have

).
Second why i choose him was because of PLATE yes thats what i mean baby Full plate mail muhhaaahahaha... ahum. I named him Hieronymus Morius Cause my real name is Jeroen Hieronymus Matilde Phillipus Moritz. I always wanted to make a Hospittaller knight, for the ones wich dont know who or what they are they are like the knights templar but were skilled in the healing arts aswell so i made him a supportive warrior with watch yourself and some other healing spells rebirth. Hes still alive wears knights cuirass and rest plate cept the boots all dyed silver, he can be found a lot around ascalon and the krytan jungle cause i like helping people.

Hyunsai · Jan 13, 2006, 11:02 AM // 11:02

My first, and my only character, Hammer Ranger/Warrior, Hyun Sai.
Probably will stay my only character, and will never delete him...
Currently in the desert waiting to do the coops while farming some holy griffons near Camp Rankor...

sunh3h3 · Jan 13, 2006, 11:27 AM // 11:27

i think a lot ppl in this thread misunderstood the OP's "telling a little bit of you personality". She asked u to describe YOUR personality, not your character's

King's Spectre · Jan 13, 2006, 02:26 PM // 14:26

My very first was a W/Mo named Camaris Spectre (although he's rarely a /Mo these days). He was my first experiment with the character creation screen and came out a little homely, but full plate mail is the great equalizer in that regard!

I've had him since May and he's done the full game. I suspect that his monthly color make-over has cost more by now than his armor!

Cam goes everywhere and hunts everything. His first real "farming" targets were centaurs in maguuma. There's hardly an area in the game that he hasn't solo'd a little just to see if he could.

Silent · Jan 13, 2006, 02:55 PM // 14:55

My first character was a N/W named Migad Something or other, he got to Nolani academy and I realised I wasn't having fun with him. So I created an Elementalist and 150 hours later he's still with me and soon to complete hells precipice mission....hopefully.
