Every race has the same sized hit box…

As for wining it is all skill based not because they are Asura..

That said in WvW it is nice to try and hide behind the massive norns.

Yes trolls wont admit it but being little has huge advantage in this game.
Geez i really wonder why everyone makes smallest asurans in game ?
They will whine with pathetic arguments how hit box is same ,how size does not matter but at the end of day they will roll little rats.
To all rat fans here ,try hiding a huge charr in grass and then tell me that you dont have advantage ,also in battle human eye will easy focus on big charr but i need to spend 2-3 seconds to find little rat,especialy when they hide behind combo fields and animations. I wont eaven talk about charr dodge and asuran dodge.
And then you have uber trolls that make smallest asurans and then post how weapons should be bigger.
For conclusion animations and hitbox might be same but human eye cant focus on small rats like you can on big charrs or norns ,and thats where asuran advantage is. This game should have human size characters only like gw 1 had.

But we can only dream about it,or if you cant beat them or change them in this case roll a little rat by yourself.
Hope arena net will see that they made a big mistake.

Jesus christ this. I remember making my Asura a tick below the max height and I have never seen any other Asura as tall as mine. People defiantly do this solely for the competitive aspect.

Yes, only for the competitive aspect, not at all for how we feel our character should look and be portrayed. Just like every Norn or Charr make the largest hulking figure for competitive play, not because they want to look a certain way, but so they can intimidate other players. I really don’t get this argument, as there is perhaps a fraction of a percent of people who play this game that roll a tiny Asura simply for a misperceived ‘competitive’ pvp advantage.

Not true! I didn’t make my Charr a Hulked beast :’(

On another note, I remember that some of my skills with my riffle were getting canceled when little Asuras were realy close to me. Wich is not a problem I have when I fight the other races.

Made a small-ish Asura. Funny thing, I still get targetted as much as everyone else, and it’s just as hard to hide as it is for everyone else because Tab still auto-targets me and my name is still BRIGHT NEON RED in WvWvW.

I see no advantages aside of jumping puzzle camera.

You’re smoking something dude. It’s harder to see the animations that let people anticipate what you are doing and counter you effectively. For a norn, this is a huge problem (pun intended). For an asura, it isn’t as big of a problem as long as there are other players around. If you cannot understand the advantage of having your animations be smaller, go watch some Sesame Street before Romney cancels it. Elmo will teach you the difference between big and small.

You’re right about the name but it isn’t about spotting you in the distance, it’s about countering you in the flurry of animations going on all around you. If you play a ranged character it won’t make much difference but for melee, Asura are superior to norn and charr, simply because they are more difficult to read when standing in a pile of characters, their various animations and graphic effects. Comprende?

The camera is lower to the ground for asura, which can make it extremely difficult to navigate jumping puzzles. Human and sylvari are actually probably the best for those.

I made my two asuran characters minimum size because they’re cuter that way. Had absolutely zero to do with any sort of advantage in pvp.

Made my asuran as short as possible for role-playing purposes, and because it makes my character feel like he’s moving faster, even if he really isn’t.

I made my Asura the shortest I could because they fill out better at that height, in my opinion.

Oh the long leggers of Tyria are banging their clubs against trees again and hoping gold falls from the branches.

Tis best not to entertain long legger complaints, their inferior intellect is a cause for concern and the Asura do not hide behind the long legger races, the Asura plan, wait and assess the number of long legger deaths that appear before them.

This gives us time to fight or run… long legger is an expendable asset but an Asura mind and skill on the battle field is not

I’ll be honest, when I first started this game, the sole reason for me creating and playing smallest asura is to be small and irritating in PVP, that was what went through my head. I didn’t pick asura because they are cute or whatever (although my asura has grown on me after so much play time) Now, if you go PVP, its very common to see tons of asuras. Even if hitboxes are the same, just being visually small helps. The human mind subconsciously locks onto the biggest target. If you are big and brightly coloured (as is everyone in pvp), you’ll get picked on.

Of course people are going to play smallest asura for other reasons. If they wanted a bigger character they most likely would have gone for another race. Also, smaller = cuter so most people will have it on smallest. Same reason why you see max sized Norn all the time. (big = bada­s­s)

Made my Asura as tall as possible so I could see myself. If I’m going to spend money on armor I wanna see it.
