Guild Wars 2

Just curious on the community breakdown.

Iron Legion pride!

What did you all go with?

Put your faith in Iron, not false gods!!

And then I sprang for another slot because I heard the Blood storyline was fun. (It is) Someday, Ash, someday.

ASH

being a thief i find ash very fitting plus i love the ash intro. i am the blade in the darkness >:)

ash so i can fart silently

My charr necro is Blood Legion.

Ash. Its just way more fitting for an elementalist.
Blood is full of meatheads who want to bash things with their swords.
Iron is ok, but it’s really more of an engineer thing.
The ash legion understands the value of a delicate stab in the back, or a swift bolt of lightning to the heart as the case may be.

Iron for my engineer, ash for necromancer and elementalist, blood for mesmer and guardian.

Blood Legion for my warrior. Might roll a guardian later to see the Iron Legion story.

I chose Iron even though I rolled thief. Ash thief seemed like the obvious choice, so I wanted to be a little different. I figure every legion has every class, anyway—what comes down to it is how each class acts in that legion. I always saw my thief as a sneaky gadgeteer type.

Let the Ash legion strike from the shadows, let the Blood legion die on the fields… I am part of the machine.

I seriosuly expect to form Voltron at some point in the game.

I picked all of ‘em, and I really can’t play favourites or buy into legion politics (I guess I’m like Rytlock in that regard) because I love all of ‘em! Each legion pretty much has its own winning factors. And I don’t know who they put on charr writing duty, but all of the charr storylines were simply exemplary and so well done. They really give you a feel of what the charr have to deal with on a day to day basis.

And they all really present the kind of conflict-ridden world that the charr live in. It’s not a mostly peaceful world, like ours, where we have super-powers and we enjoy forced peace. No, not at all. It’s a world which is riddled with issues and war. And the charr have ended up very hard-nosed after various groups either trying to commit charr genocide, trying to enslave them, or trying to steal their land.

And all of the legions convey wonderfully what it means to be charr. This is why I ended up deleting the rest of my characters and rolling charr. With the writing of the other characters, it feels like they just didn’t have the same passion there. And with a couple of races it felt phoned in. But the charr stuff was great, and even tugged at the heartstrings occasionally.

But even after the legions, you have Tybalt Leftpaw, who’s a charr and probably the best character in the game. Soooo… again, I’m just going to say that I really, really want to shake the hand of whomever did the writing. It’s exceptional.

Thus… I must honestly choose all of them.

Ash. From what I tried in beta, I liked ash the most.

Blood and Iron on my 2 Charr characters.

It’s not a choice, but in my heart… FLAME!

Ash Engineer and Blood Ranger, here.

I am Ash Legion. I use cunning to overcome my enemies. The Ash Legion teaches stealth and subterfuge. We end battles before they begin with infiltration, information gathering, and precision strikes.

On that note, I also have a low level Blood character as well, so I can see the Blood Legion story. It shocked me when I saw that in the Blood Legion storyline, you 'left your warband to die' when fighting the Duke, while in the Ash Legion, you get your promotion immediately and end up defending the tribune.

I chose the Ash Legion because it seemed to be the best suited for my Charr’s nefarious skill sets.

Iron forever.

/15 char

Starting with Ash and liking it. They’re basically the charr Spec Ops.

Will try out Iron in the near future – Blood doesn’t appeal too much to me because it seems mundane.

All three, technically.

But my main (or at least, highest level) is Iron.

I’ll be in all three, but my main charr and heart lies with Blood. I’m fond of Iron and maybe it will win me back, but Blood has really impressed me. The other legions look down on Blood, seeing them as a bunch of meatheads and leathernecks, but instead of letting that get to them, Blood members typically have a “yes I’m a soldier, and I don’t need toys or to sneak around to be a good one, either” attitude.

I picked one of each, I had to. I love all things charr lol so I made a blood legion necro, as well as a blood warrior, an iron legion engineer, and a ash legion thief

Went Blood for my mesmer and Iron for my Engineer (stereotypical much, huh?). However I played some of the Ash storyline in the betas and I’m actually really tempted to go back and make a 3rd charr just for that.

Blood Legion.

That is all.

My main is an Ash Engi. For my next charr, I plan on giving Iron a go!

I haven’t finished the story for either Ash or Iron because Blood ended up winning me over so well on my engineer. I really liked how I was able to take command and how choosing my warband actually felt like a major decision. I almost wish I could redo it without locking in my choice so I could see what the other guy besides Fyron is. But Fyron was a pretty cool bandmate.

Ash all the way, as a thief it seemed perfect

Grizzly.9713:

Blood Legion.

That is all.

This——^

I am blood also

The last mission for the blood legion before you head into your teens level, when you are calling out targets and such… SOOO COOL! I want to replay that mission so much I might roll another blood just for kicks.

Iron Legion Engineer.

Makes the most sense.

I’m waiting for Anet to give me my tank already

Warrior – Blood

Since the beta I knew I’d be a Thief playing Ash.

Ash on my necro, blood on my guardian.

Ash on the necro because the way the do things seems “unsoldierlike” to the other legions and it’s kind of frowned upon, being necromancer and wielding the powers of the undead is also frowned upon, so it makes perfect sense.

For the Blood Legion!!!
