Guild Wars 2

Hiyas All!

Anyone Wondered why Charr always use Running on Four animation while they have Running on Two animation that is Never used or impossible to even use it unless you get a Speed debuff or get a Weapon out? What if the player want to run on two and without weapon drawn out?

Seems only NPC Charrs can run on Two while Player Charrs on Four… You know, If a Charr is RPing, It would be Awkward to Run on Four instead on Two sometimes, I’m just saying~

Back then We used to believe Charr will run on Two but whenever they get a Speed buff or Bonus, they’ll start Running on Four for the Duration of that Buff/Bonus, but it seems that never happened,

It’s funny when a Charr is running on four yet an Asura matchs the Charr’s speed and sometimes beat the charr too Haha,

Sooo Here’s my Suggestion, Why not Do it? Make Charr Run on Two and Run on Four when they have Speed buff?

Oooor as my friend suggested, maybe some people love running on Four soooo… Why not Make Charr’s Running Animation toggle-able between Running on Two animation and Running on Four Animation?

Because you know, that Running on Two Animation is there but totally wasted if there’s no way to use it and super rarely seen unless, as I mentioned, got Speed debuff~

And Thanks for Reading! =D

EDIT Yesterday my friend been complaining about te Jumping puzzle, mainly because he’s a Charr, and Charr’s jumping animation is kinda confusing when the Charr is on-4, others think same too, others not, just thought to add that.

Toggle your walk and you move on 2 feet like the npc’s, but you are slower of course…just like the NPCs.

You run on two legs with your weapons drawn, as well.

You get the normal running animation when you are in combat mode and holstered weapons.

But the fast running animation is used when running too slow.

The four-leg animation should be used only under a combined speed boost of at least 25%, like Swiftness or Signet of Shadows.

Models in GW2 had different animations when going faster than 10%, so I’m sure that’s possible.

There are other more important things to be fixed wake up… most worthless topic i ever seen. And that running on 4 is actually the only thing i like on charrs …

Buuuut we’re talking about “Running” Not “Walking”, you know? =P

Which… I mentioned it up there in some first lines? XD

Walking is completely unrelated to this.

Which is why, My Friend, this is a “Suggestion” post, NOT bug report or anything, Sooo nothing to be upset about because it’s just, You know, a “Suggestion”? if you want something fixed, go to Support section of the forum =3

Also, I did mention there are people who like the On-4 Running animation, which is why my friend asked me to suggest a Toggle-able running animation switch for those who want On-4 or On-2 =P

Actually, yeah I had some moments when I holstered my weapon in combat mode, but that only lasts one or two seconds, if you’re not doing anything, you go back to the normal mode~

I’d rather it was 4 legs all the time. Wield a greatsword in your mouth whatever, but the Charr weapon wielding run isn’t nice. I like symmetry darn you Anet! The only class it feels ok on is the ranger with a bow for me.
