Guild Wars 2

Was about to start a Warrior, and I’m trying to decide on a race. Norn (Female), Char or Asura. Asura in particular seems amusing, but I’m’ not sure how good it would look in practice. Just a small guy doing the same animations as a Norn… I’d rather have the muscles.

However, when I checked some youtube videos, it seems Asuran warriors are very ‘dancy’. Whereas Norn Warriors might make brute-strength strokes, Asura Warriors are incredibly agile (often with weapons that seem two sizes too big for them), fighting like Yoda from Attack of the Clones. Is this the case, or was the video I saw not representative of their combat as a whole? Or, alternatively, are all warriors that energetic?

I love my asuran warrior, and they are very dance-y depending on how you kit them out. I run dual axes on her.

I have a Norn and an Asura warrior. They are both good but…my bias…I love the Asura. Part of it is simply the physical contradiction (if that is the right word) – tiny but powerful. And…as a race they have an attitude which I appreciate.

I don’t know about warriors but Asuran guardians with hammer is hilarious. With skill 2 they leap way up in the air then slam the hammer down.

You can always make one just to check out the animations. Buy cheap white weapons or craft them, unlock the skills and decide.

get asura guardians, get charr warriors
