GW2 this week, Necro or Ranger?

It looks like the next GW2 profession will be revealed this week, the small figure on the ground to the right of the warrior and elementalist. I would have bet $$$ that ranger would be the next profession revealed, but now I'm not so sure.

The little shadow seems to be one of the only silhouettes that you could expect to be asura. It's so tiny! If the profession reveal for my precious ranger uses an asura there will be much QQing from me.

I'm not really sure what other class they would reveal now, though. The trend so far seems to be to reveal the profession we have the highest confidence in already, so as to give us as little new information as absolutely possible. That would seem to point to only ranger or necro as the next profession reveals. And since it seems like they should reveal an adventurer next after having revealed one profession each from the other two armor classes, you would assume that would mean ranger is up next.

The little silhouette seems closer to what I'd expect from necro than ranger, though. But admittedly it is really hard to say what's actually going on in it. I kind of doubt that necro will come back as an adventurer, although they did have one armor set that put them in the ranger/assassin armor range (tormentor...?).

Maybe they just plan on revealing something else entirely just to mess with those of us who think we have it all figured out.

Either way we should find out soon enough. Wed or Thurs would be my guess, hopefully this week and not next!

As a side note, if the reveal this week does turn out to be necro, then I would shift my bets to the low-to-the-ground silhouette on the opposite side being ranger and that's reveal that follows next.


Here are my long range predictions:


  1. was elementalist
  2. was warrior
  3. will be the small guy to the right of the group, most likely a necro or ranger, though possibly could be mesmer as well
  4. will probably be either necro or ranger, whichever isn't #3
  5. I bet assassin
  6. mesmer, unless #3 was mesmer, in which case I bet ranger
  7. blue mystery class, saved for second-to-last
  8. the new 100% unknown class, thought to be based on environmental weapons (I prefer to call it engineer for now)
Expect to see this come back updated from time to time as news progresses. ;)
