Wow! Thanks a lot!
The A/P bar looks great, can't wait to try it out!It’s untested but it should work pretty well. Was nice to not worry about energy for once with spear:D Also high chance of DW on Vicious Spear. Elite skill is optional, but incoming seemed most useful xd Anthem of Guidance might also be a valid option if you’re bringing more heroes that benefit from this

From my experience, all classes have pros and cons. What matters most is your playstyle (and which class would be a best fit for that), the build you play, and the builds you run on your heroes.
As Bluey mentioned above, generally warrior is overshadowed by dervish and assassin, but I made a nice build which hits like a truck (to the point where dervish and assassin are overshadowed xd).
So there is no clear answer to your question. Every player has their own style and preference. Just try a few out and find your way through the game. It wont disappoint;)Also just to have it mentioned, you are not restricted to running the weapons for a certain class. You can run Paragon with a bow, a Warrior with a scythe, an Assassin with an axe, and a Dervish with a sword. What matters most is meeting the requirement for that weapon in order to deal the damage you are meant to deal (so you’d have to take it as a 2nd profession for it to deal damage).
And finally, not to throw shade/hate/shame or whatever towards anyone. But from personal experience any class can be broken (be it damage, support, tank). You just need to find the right build/skill to use.
(Elementalist tends to be overshadowed by Mesmer, which for heroes I’d agree with. But for player, the right PvE skills can really make or break a build. I used to run Intensity+Invoke Lightning (while timing Intensity that I can use it 2x on 1 Invoke Lightning). This way you deal XX-XXX dmg from invoke, 70% of XX-XXX dmg from Intensity in the area and that 2x within a very short time. So there are ways to come out of that shadow, you just need to find something that works for you 😜).
In short: play the game, try things and most importantly do what you enjoy. Nobody can tell u how to play this goddamn great game ❤️ -
Here are some of the assassin build ideas I came up with. Made one with every martial weapon type.
I assume the "?" is Shadow Theft?
Would you recommend Critical Agility for IAS?
Edit: oh sorry, just read the above, you use BU and pie
Shadow theft is the open slot yeah.
Critical agility is great if u dont want or dont use cons/pcons. One “downside” it has imo, is that it renews on crit (so it will be first ench to get stripped this way). Not that sin has much better options for IAS (besides WotA+daggers) -

Bahdok Caverns
Last group (where I finished) could have been grabbed before but patrol timing was off:( However, 287 foes in 23mins aint bad

on my phone right now so can only add picture like this, but this is what I was thinking for the next project: another Sin GWAMM, builds still tbd. Really not sure what I want to play and what setup to go with it yet xd

OS staves can’t drop with such a mod. Zodiac staves do drop inscr which you can mod with +5^Ench

GW Babel edition!
By the way, what's so special about Icedome CR? I mean, Tasca's without DDF should be faster and easier, no? No need to run there, the groups aren't that dense etc
less chest per min imo
Can confirm it felt like more chests spawned here. Used to swear by icedome, but this felt faster/cleaner because you also didnt have to /resign everytime

A little different, might just give ST another shot :p
So the thing I wanted was 2x splinter weapon since I wanted to use a Barrage Paragon for that little extra oompf. Only was I could think of to make it worthwhile is by making them both healers (energy problems incoming, but with BiP + Aria of Zeal on the para (4 energy regain) it should be doable). And this way I am effectively only using 1 mesmer which feels weird after running 5:D
