Getting Started

imageCreating Your Hero

Heroes are male or female, large or small, and are made up of any one of 36 potential combinations of the six professions: Warrior, Elementalist, Monk, Ranger, Mesmer, and Necromancer. Individual heroes can eventually learn as many as 150 unique skills per character. The most important choices you must make for your new hero are first a primary profession, and soon thereafter a secondary profession. These choices determine not only armour, skills, and fighting style, but your overall gameplay experience.

You can create four heroes per unique Guild Wars account. You can delete and create new heroes at any time and switch up your skills and attributes whenever you’re in town. Experiment with profession combinations until you create the hero that suits you best.
