Guild Wars 2

Im having trouble deciding between the 2nd top from the left body type and the 3rd top from the left body type for humans. Considering a guardian is heavily armored would the more pronounced 2nd top left option be better or is less more for a female ?

I went with middle torso thickness (whichever that one was) with the muscular build. With full plate armor on you can hardly see your girl’s shapes anyway, at least not beyond how well you fit through doorways.

Well there’s a few rather skimpy heavy armours ..

The strange thing I found is that different armours affect your breast size a lot. Reinforced Scale or AC chestpieces make them smaller, some others really make them huge. It’s really strange.

That’s why I ignored the body textures and went straight for the heaviest body. If you want your girl to look powerful in heavy armor, that’s the body you need to pick. Besides, you need pixel shaders on to see the muscle textures on female humans, so to 3/4 of the players the muscular build looks like another anorexic body type.

Could you possibly name the body type in relation to where I can find it on the character creation screen please? There are a few “heavy” options and I want to hear what everyones personal choice on them is.

I believe it’s the bottom-left on the first page. You can’t miss her really, she has noticeably thicker legs then every other physiques out there, especially from the side. Her skin doesn’t show muscles which is a little strange for the character with the biggest arms and legs (it’s not like there are fat characters in this game) but like I said you don’t see that unless you have max pixel shaders and skimpy armor.

I ended up going with the 2nd option from the left on the top row. It seems to be the best of both worlds all options considered. Its a bit more mucular then the others but not too much so as with the bottom left one and the shader issue basically was the final deciding factor. Considering Im going for a max/ near max height character the 2nd from the top left seems like the best balence while still looking “female” with the heavy plate on.

Third top body type.

Has enough mass to look like a Warrior; my only complaint is the bust size; HOWEVER if you run with armors like Cultural T3 or any covering armor it doesn’t matter.

I always take the one who got nice curvs and, you know hips and breasts. Looks really sexy on female humans.

Hmm I picked top middle one of first page and never regretted it.

Chose the one on the bottom, 4th from left. It’s the body type with the thinnest legs and least bust size. Reason was it looks good with PvP Armageddon/Temple Karma Gear.

For my Heavy Armor Human Female, I used bottom row number 2. I may not be able to see those abs under the chainmail, but I like knowing they’re there.

I just complained about this in another post, WHY do my breasts keep changing size!? Aion had this issue to but even more severe, I’d go from C to H cup it was insane and my feet and torso changed sizes too sometimes -_-! It bothers me cause I like some outfits but then im HUGE. I don’t understand why this issue even happens, reskin the outfits onto the bodies, why are things changing size? >:O

The other thing is I take a lot of time to create the character, I don’t like things changing size though there wasn’t many options in GW2 but aion there was and I am like whats the point if your just gonna change it due to the outfit I wear? -_-
