So I’ve been playing my sylvari warrior for a long time and I’ve come to a conclusion; she’s not very…warrior-like. She barely looks like she can hold her sword, she barely looks like she can stay on her feet when she swings it!

So I hatched a plan. I decided that changing her to a traditional warrior race like the Charr or (to a lesser extent) norn would solve this problem! So I rerolled a Norn warrior and she swung her sword with excellence and discipline! Problem was, I didn’t have the time or inclination to raise another warrior to 80, only to then go through the same hard work I went through with my other warrior.

So I hatched another, even more brilliant plan! I went to the gemstore to see if there was an item which could change your race. But there wasn’t one! So I came here to ask the game devs to, pretty please, put an item in the gemstore that would let me turn my weak, twiggy sylvari into a cast-iron-clad 8ft tall tattooed babe who could floor a man with one punch!

I have a few suggestions on the personal story front though;
1- You get a randomly allotted storyline (which I dislike the idea of)
2- You get to play through your story once again with no rewards (this I’m fine with; makes people SURE they want to change race)
3- You get a short endgame story in which you get to find your place in your new race. For example, as a charr you must find a warband and legion etc.
4- You get no story. (Not really an option for me…I’m a bit of an immersion freak)
5- You play your personal story with rewards from the beginning (Not so keen on this one for what I hope are obvious reasons)

On the subject of race-specific armour and skills, they should get swapped out with the actual skills and armour of your new race.

So that’s my long-winded and hopefully amusing request for race changes ^^

*Attention sylvari warriors; satirical humour is highly volatile, handle with care!

I would love a racechange because I’d like to do jump puzzles but not on my Charr. I’m thinking making him an Asura.

Your thread will probably be merged with several others that have suggested this. But supposedly ANet has said this isn’t ever going to happen. So don’t get yourself too hyped over the idea. Reroll and enjoy a fresh ride to level 80. Choose a different path and different storyline options to keep things fresh.
