Ive noticed with guild wars that it is a very hard game to understand. You can reach 20 and still be no expert which i have done. I am a W/R and i can not run ppl to droknars forge like so many ppl seem to say a W/R is good at. I dont use any ranger spells since most of them require a bow or points in a lot of my ranger talents. I can not seem to spread out my attribute points in a good way so that i can utilize my ranger profession. And as far as farming goes i just wont do it. I cant kill multiple things at the same time. and if i want to farm i have to bring a whole team of henchmen. As of right now i only use my Warrior spells because they seem to be the only spells that i have any use for. I havent done all of the PVE and unlocked all the skills for warrior and ranger. I think this might be my problem. But, if i dont like the class now i might not like it when i do unlock some skills. and a lot of the skills require a lot of faction which seems to take a long time to build up. I would just like some help with my situation. Should i reroll and make a w/mo or mo/w which i have been thinking about for a long time or should i keep this character and learn to play a little more. PLEASE HELP!!!!

Well, go through the game, and you'll reach Droknar's anyway. You also need Balanced Stance, so you can get past the worms.

Also, you don't have to reroll a character. Just wait 'till you get to the Desert, and get to Droknar's, and you'll be able to change your secondary.

The point of this is, GET TO DROKNAR'S NORMALLY!

#1 - Have you ascended yet? Once you do and get to Droknar's thru game play rather than being "fast forwarded" to it by running from Beacon's Perch, you can get a quest that allows you to change your secondary class. Don't reroll and start over, just redo your 2ndary at that point.
#2 - You can unlock all skills you want via game play and don't have to use Faction pts to do so. Check the skills page here or on other sites for locations. Also keep in mind that you can Capture Elite Skills once you've completed the Magi's quest from Lion's Arch. Most of your Elites will be from the Desert >forward in the game. (also check sites for full lists/locations of elites.
#3 - Most farming builds I've read about involve Monk as primary or secondary, there are TONS of threads on these forums about that - please use the "search" feature to find them.
#4 - Not all of us are as adept at discovering those great combinations that will fully utilize our builds, but take a look at the skills lists for your class and think how 1 skill may benefit or be maximized by using another. Warriors base armour is more stout than other classes, add in some of the warding from Elementalists + Dmg dealing you might find a good tanking/farming combo that way. It's not hard to understand, but it does take some trial & error like most any idea would.

WOW! that helped a lot guys. i didnt know you could change your secondary. I have ascended which is making me mad because ascendind to me was a long and tedious task and i am not really happy with my character. but i will look into the secondary profession quest now that i know about it.

Once you're in droknar's - talk to Vanyi (npc by storage), she'll give your Hero's Journey quest. Go back to any of the 3 locations she specifies and you'll find Ghosts of each profession you don't have and they offer you quests.
This is a two-fold quest - part of it is to allow you to change secondary which once you complete one of those ghosts quests they will ask you if you want to change to that class now.
Once you've done 1 of those quests, go back and talk to Vanyi again and the 2nd portion will be given - Hero's Path I think?? Basically you go talk to her sister near coppenhammer mines, follow her a short ways then kill some banshee like mobs and viola you get 15 more att pts.

Thank you so much. i did the quest and was able to change my profession. Now i can play the game with a build i like.
