…what the fuck do I do with my level 34 engineer?
As someone already said, don’t delete your old characters, especially your oldest one: birthday gifts are per character rather than per account. You probably have a ton in your mail if you haven’t gotten them yet. Probably best to be near a back when you open them; they’ll take a lot of inventory space.
It’s up to you whether you want to dive back in on an old character, or start from scratch again on a new one. The nice thing is that leveling is pretty quick, and the game is very alt-friendly; you’re almost expected to have multiple characters, and endgame equipment is all account bound rather than character bound, so you can share it around between characters.
I’d use the 1-80 journey to figure out what you enjoy in game. You get XP for all of it, so once You’ve checked out all. (or maybe most) of it, do the bits you like. Personally,I like exploration and story, so I do that bits. Also instanced PvE. There’s also WvW, PvP, races, adventures, crafting, collections, achievement hunting… all kinds of stuff.
Enjoy it, and welcome back!

Oh good to know thank you - I almost deleted my other characters because I thought the gifts were account based - looks like I am gonna need some bags…
level him up, then level the specialization and get a freaking mech with lasers
As someone who played once, I think you need to kill things. Sorry it’s not the best answer but it is a answer.
I’ma shoot em real good like
Look that they get an level 80 engineer soon?
I didn’t even know that 80 was the level cap now
Level cap didn’t change.
It’s been 10 years
… since I heard this song!
Yup, instead of increasing the level cap, there is now a mastery system. Your xp combines with “mastery points” to unlock new abilities like gliding, mushroom jumping, or mount abilities. There’s no more stat increase, no better armor or weapons after 80. Progression is horizontal instead of vertical. Your character doesn’t get better, you get new ways to play.
Legit - love that
Ive seen people who thinks that mastery rank is the level indicator
