They rank at 5 out of 5 and are able to be used at Meta Events as well as for general PvE adventures. A-Tier - These are the top-rated builds available for solo adventures - they are durable and powerful. So, any A-Tier with the right player can be S-Tier. So narrowing down what build is actually deserving of an S-Tier status is impossible. So if any class or build does dominate, adjustments are made.
The situation is this: ArenaNet works hard to develop a well-balanced set of classes so that no one class or build can be overpowered. They are good in all versions of Player versus Environment including fractals as well as being desirable in raid groups. S-Tier - This Tier has the best of the best. So, Commander, take a seat and let’s review the builds. This can cause a lower level build to be played at the next tier. Additionally, player skill level will affect performance. A ranking system of 5 stars (like a general) is used. Keep in mind that gear selection, sigils, food, and such will affect the performance of the builds listed. They are resilient, adaptable, and able to survive high-level maps. These builds are going to do is rock the meta events, slay your way through the campaign and help your guild go on to complete missions.
Those builds should be tailored to fit into a specific role that your character is filling as part of the team. We are not going to discuss builds for specific endgame content such as Raid or Fractal builds. In this tier list, we are going to explore what Player vs Environment builds are best. However, among the classes, some builds have an easier time than others. The developers are constantly adjusting the classes so that gameplay is balanced so that no class is able to dominate. Guild Wars 2 is a unique game in that it is possible to reach the endgame content with all builds.
