Message: <blockquote data-quote="Bront" data-source="post: 4320651" data-attributes="member: 19696">Find a good guild, often there's someone on who can help you out.  (I run one if you're looking, it's small but has some active people, we have our own forums at http:\\guildwars.bront.org )You get a primary and secondary class (the secondary comes a little later, after L5 in Nightfall), but your secondary can eventually change, so don't worry if you don't like what you picked.Also, keep in mind, your primary is the only profession you get your primary attribute with, so you generally want to try to use it, or else chances are you're better off with a different primary for that build.  Also, this generally means you want to sparingly use skills from your secondary, as they often don't synergize from your primary as well as skills from your primary.Try to keep yourself using only 3, or 4 if you have to, attribute lines.  Otherwise you end up too spread out and none of your skills do squat.Don't be afraid to tweak your build for an area or encounter.  You can change everything in an outpost, and there are few builds that can walk over everything.  Also, some skills are more useful at lower levels than they are at higher levels, and vice versa.  Since you're generally almost always at higher levels, be aware that some of your favorite early skills may be less useful later.Maintained enchantments are usually bad.  Maintained enchantments on warrior classes are always bad (Exceptions involving specific farming builds).  Basicly, they gimp your energy regeneration, which is bad to do, but very bad when 1 cuts your regen in half, and 2 remove it completely.In PvE (The story line), you should rarely need a self-heal.  Your party should have healers in it, so you don't need to heal yourself.  This doesn't mean you should never take one, but defined rolls help a party function, as does synergy.Speaking of Synergy, remember, you may only have 8 skills, but so does everyone else in your party (or a few less if they're henchmen).  This goes along with spreading yourself thin.  Let the elementalist cast the fire storm, the monk heal you, and the paragon use his shouts to augment your abilities.Get familiar with these 2 websites:<a href="http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Main_Page" target="_blank">http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Main_Page</a><a href="http://guildwars.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page" target="_blank">http://guildwars.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page</a>Very useful.Me, I tried a Dervish, but found the Paragon and Warrior more enjoyable.Anyway, have fun, and feel free to look me up in game.  I'm Meloran Avenro (I have other names, but that one works, friends list is by account, so friend 1 character, you friend them all)</blockquote>
