And why is he dishing out free siege devourers ? Did the war on ascalonian ghosts become too stale?

No but really, you could have generated a new model for the Champion Charr mechanic instead of using an already existing model that’s used for the Iron legion imperator, its like if you’d use and see Queen Jenna selling laurels or handing out commander tomes in each base.

I know its a small ’’issue’’ in an overall nice update, that alot of the players will overlook, but can we maybe get another, different charr mechanic model next time ? A new one please? It just feels like GW2 sank slightly deeper than it already was when it comes to re-using character models.

This is really not acceptable. Smodur is an Imperator, not a random NPC model, even though his importance in the game is reduced to extreme background.

This is pretty bad, as OP said, we don’t see Queen Jenna handing out stuff or the Pale Tree selling salvage kits, so what is this?

Vote Gnashblade!
And revive Baelfire.

You mean you never saw his twin brother before this?

It’s so racist.
Like stating that every Asian looks the same so you won’t see any difference.

As a charr fan I want this changed, and I would like such an important npc as an imperator to have a unique look like the human and sylvari leaders do.

I agree with this. All of the imperators should have unique models so that they can’t be replicated as random NPCs like this.

This… I mean, maybe he kind of misses the days when he was a lowly grunt?

In all seriousness though, as a norn, I would be pretty annoyed if I saw Knut Whitebear handing out drinks in EOTM…

I agree, no important figure should have their model reused, anywhere. I’d be very annoyed if a saw an NPC without a specific name that looks exactly like Rytlock Brimstone.

This is unacceptable! Does our race does not deserve respect? That our emperor is not a public figure does not mean it is not important!

I demand that change!

Frankly I hate to agree on this point, but simply can’t help myself. This is an oversight that should be corrected. Either that, or make it fair and put Jennah, The Pale Tree, an Asura councilor, and the Norn Chiefton (is that his title?) in there to balance it out (joking of course on the suggestion).

It’s better to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid than to open it and remove all doubt.
