hmm, sounds an interesting profession but also sounds duller than it's GW1 counterpart, as it looks like you don't get minions from kills, they just spawn from the ground, and you can't use the skill multiple times to get multiple minions, you use it then you get the secondary skill. I suppose to many running around in a persistant world would be bad for server lag issues.

This skills in the videos look kinda dull as well compared to other professions, but the minions do look better grafically than GW1, though i'd prefer a GW1 looking one.

Also the costumes look more like Goth Ritualists or something, not really necromancer like.

Does really sound interesting though how if you die, you become your ghost and can fight until u live again

probably ranger is one of my fav classes so far, purely for the pets, and the fact you can have a shark. warrior will probably also be kewl, but i want some class with flashy skills, and warrior doesn't seem to have that. So it's Ranger for me atm, unless something better looking appears... though i always kinda hated ranger in GW1. Necro was my first proper class in GW1, but i can't see me playing it unless it's just to test in GW2

will be interesting to see the other classes, as there's supposed to be 2-3 new types, and will be interesting to see how mesmer works.

Yer I did think watching one of the vids that the char necro's armor looked very ritualist like, kinda blindfolded. Makes me think they are not having a ritualist class, which is a shame as I use my rit as my main farming class now. Hopefully we'll get to see one of the new classes soon.

i read somewhere that there's no ritualist class. the classes will be the original ones, not expansion ones, minus the monk (as everyone heals now) and then some completely new ones. I wish they'd keep the monk a part of it though, but make it more like a smiting monk than healing one.

since it's 250 years in the future and can have robots and guns in it now, i wouldn't be surprised if there's classes relating to those. ranger has guns though i think, so not sure, though maybe their an Artilary type profession, maybe even an Alchemist or the like.
