Guild Build

[carthage]

Do we have a guild build?
If so, what?
I've got an R/Mo, and am working on my first Mo/?, and would like to know what classes might benefit a guild build for PvP later on.
Maybe a War?

I have:
Ele/Necro
Mo/Mes
Warr/Mo -> I really don't play tho.

Ok,
This is how I see it. There are PvP characters you can make. They can only PvP and only get to choose from the skill set given and skills / items you have unlocked in PvE. As a PvP character you can only unlock skills through faction points. PvP characters can be deleted and reconstructed as needed to fit the current requirements. Say for a guild outting into PvP play.

A PvE character can play both PvP and PvE. They get to choose from the skills that have been "captured" from bosses and obtained from quests or purchased. Skills obtained by all PvE characters add to the list of available ones to a PvP character. A PvE character can not be changed, the classes chosen are the ones you have to live with, unless you quest to change one. PvE characters can also unlock skills through faction points, but will not have access to those skills ever.

IMO, it is worth leaving one slot open for creating a PvP character. The other characters are used to unlock skills by what ever means.

As for building for the guild, the thing we need most is numbers, as in more members. If and when we get more into PvP as a guild, the spare slot will come in handy for creating toons on the fly. Otherwise you can play your PvE characters in PvP. Far as I can see, the main task of a player is to unlock skills to provide as many choices to your PvP characters as possible. To see what skills you have unlocked you can go to the skill vender in the PvP areas. Any that you have unlocked will say so. This way you can read up on what you dont have and decide if you want it.

Hope that helps some.

Sure does,
I have a pvp slot already, and am constantly deleting it as I have learned that the faction is shared between the char slots. Nothing is ever lost.
I guess I'll shoot for Ele/mesmer with my open slot, giving me a more diverse selection when PvP time comes.
