OK, the interview is in French. I should use this for practice and do a translation myself, but...yanno, I'm lazy. So google to the rescue!


What type of player should match a magician? Who do you recommend this profession to?

Jon Peters: I recommend the sorcerers to everyone as they really are very versatile, like all professions in Guild Wars 2. The mesmer profession offers both an entry level low enough to accommodate new players, but also skills that match the top players. Players who like to take the lead in battle and force their enemies to make quick decisions will love this class. For example, a guard will protect its allies by improving their armor, while a mesmer prefers to sow confusion in enemy ranks. The latter always attacks at full power, but must consider the consequences before making a single shot.
