Guild Wars 2

Apologies if this has come up before, but my wife and I noticed recently that either the magician’s or country armor on humans put them in thigh high stockings, but on norn and sylvari they are wearing leggings in the same kind of armor. Anyone know if that was intentional or a mistake? This is mostly for my curiosity.

I’m not sure they’re supposed to be distinctly different, or if the human pants just get a tighter cut than the norn ones.

Meanwhile, the sylvari country pants are about the same as the norn ones, but their Magician armor appears to do away with leggings entirely.

Probably just some artist making a judgement call (for better or worse) when adapting the armor for each race.

Huh. That is an interesting difference. I wonder if there are other differences in other sets? I notice that humans don’t show belly button in Magician armor, also.
