love how everyone is pretty differemt.

1. Ranger (pets are pretty good at keeping aggro so keep them alive and everything dies fast)
2. Mesmer (they don't have the highest dps but it's almost impossible to die if you keep spawning clones/phantasms).
3. Guardian (pretty obvious why, awesome armor and tons of healing skills)
4. Warrior (probably requires the least amount of skill/focus to be good at this, but you have to make sure everything dies fast or you can get into trouble).
5. Engineer (can be squishy but so many amazing control and support skills mean you will rarely die)
6. Necromancer (awesome survivability but I found I had more trouble with multiple mobs aggroed than with the classes listed higher).
7. Thief (I rage a lot while levelling my thief because let's face it, it's hella squshy and doesn't do well at healing or condition removal)
8. Elementalist (basically what everyone has been saying, really fun and demands the most skill, but squishier than anything. one wrong move and it's res at waypoint time)

Been seeing a ton of them the past couple days. They're even starting to try and fool us by playing different classes than Rangers, and put themselves in various guilds to look more human, but they're still obviously bots.

I have this in literally the same spot. Noticed it popping up in a lot of other areas today as well, most notably the Human city. It's just horrible there how bad the graphics disappear. I think it's safe to rule out defective GPUs though as many people report the same thing.

I think the disappearing terrain/objects is a game bug. I submitted a ticket for a couple of areas and since then I have noticed no problems in these areas so I think they must have been fixed. So I would just suggest to keep submitting tickets for any problem areas you find so they can fix them.
