Wink Next GWAMM Profession?

Hey, guys.

After just reaching my GWAMM on my Warrior, I am wondering.. For my next main character are there any professions anyone would recommend, and why? I would love to play a caster.. As I haven't very much before, so no "Physical" classes.

So yeah, either:

-Ritualist
-Necromancer
-Mesmer
-Elementalist
-Monk

(Was really considering either necro or rit).

All responses highly appreciated.

Rt>Mes>Nec in this order ,Rt and Mes are most versatile after last updates so it would be my main choice wiht necro much later .

Mez or Nec, than the Rit. Monk if you like heal. Avoid Ele if your aim is GWAMM.

I got GWAMM on my Mesmer - had a blast doing it even before the Mesmer Buff.

Now I'm going after it with a Rit and so far, it's not much of a challenge.

Ritualist: simply because it's easier to get into pugs for a lot of the harder missions in the game with one + you can farm a lot of more places with a Ritualist.

I'd go for Monk, Rit, then Ele. I have a Necro and a Mesmer but I particularly like playing them.

definitely rit. Hard Mode is nothing compared to the powers of spirit spam.

I would vote rit then necro, yes you can spam but that gets boring, yes you can dwg but meh, go rit cause you have a lot more choice, you can heal, spam, coommune with one another or channel your anger . I would prefer non spirit spamming rits in my party as I've learned that makes my job as monk boring when I dont have the challenge of having to heal anyone. I play my monk a lot and enjoy it when its a challenge. My second choice would be necro though.

Rit.

I like playing different builds, and Rit can do a lot of neat things with secondaries too. My main account's GWAMM was Assassin, and I loved the ability to play /D, /R, Daggers, caster, whatever. Rit is much the same from a caster perspective.

If you can't decide for yourself, you're not ready to be going for another GWAMM anyways.
