I like 3/4 of the paths. Not much on the Soldier since we will kill shit anyways.

So I'm thinking Scientist because I like achievements and other stuff that I have heard goes with it. I normally end up exploring around a bit too but oh wells.
 
I think if you run around grouped with another path you can get those achievements also. Don't quote me on it though.
 
I know you can get into the areas etc and gain your own path xp for things - not sure about achievements though.
 
It's called 'crossing paths'. By helping out/participating in the content available to others Paths (probably by people you group with), you will gain Path XP.

Path XP is (currently) a separate pool of XP, not linked to your level xp.

That's interesting about the exp of paths. It would logically follow that you level the path as well. That could make for some interesting combinations when paired with different professions. Or maybe gear bonuses? I'd settle for pets.
 
There is path leveling and a skill tree that you can specialize in your path. So says Gyoin.
 
I'll have to wait and see which one I enjoy the most. I'm mostly interested in Scientist and Explorer, but the Settler also sounds like a ton of fun. I'm pretty excited about the scientist puzzles and all of the lore/information gathering the Scientist path offers, but jump puzzles and exploration were my favorite parts of Guild Wars 2. And with Settler, who can say no to building a tavern right next to your motorcycle depot?
 
I like the idea of the explorer personally. The puzzle aspect of the path seems extremely fun, and based on what I saw on the PAX streams, the fact that you can find shortcuts to other places!

The other one I was interested in is the soldier, simple reason why: Assassination Missions!
 
It really sounds to me like the settler is the most meaty of the paths, settler and explorer seem kinda sparse, and soldier does one thing and one thing well.

Still think explorer matches me best and I think the path system will prove to be one of the most beloved things that people do in this game.

I totally agree. I love exploring. I have lost a lot of my screenshots from WoW but I still have a few of places that were not intended to be seen by players...I think. Like that little empty Tauren settlement at the very southwestern tip of Kalimdor.
 
I feel like settler may get old quick. With nothing useful todo. Hoping not though since it is something I enjoy.

Or the air strip on top of ironforge that you could get to by wall jumping if you were good enough.
 
That stuff is pretty much the reason I'd be an explorer. I used to love that shit.

But I love to know things. So I will know ALL OF THE THINGS.
 
Sounds like scientist for you. From what I remember you were big into the guild wars lore. Scientist is the lore path.

Yup!

Hence the scientist path logo.

But, if GW2 is any hint to you guys, I will play all the paths eventually. But Scientist is first off the rank for me. :)
 
I'm definitely going settler and want to check them all out eventually. I normally need some serious motivation to play alts. I leveled them in WoW just to cover professions for the most part. I'm thinking that should not be the case in this game.
 
On my first character (Most likely a Engineer) I'll go settler hands down. It just has so many cool options to spice up the game socially and mechanically. I am looking forward to seeing more and more of this paths abilities as time passes.
 
Soldier or settler for me a bit undecided at the moment want to see how the settler is actually going to work before i make a Decision.But will eventually give them all a go
