Are Skritt part of Charr diet?
Well there is a renown heart in Metrica Province where you can talk to skritt IQ test subjects. If you are an asura when you talk to one of them you say how all the skritt should be sent to the charr so they could eat them, the the skritt passes out. I can’t remember the exact dialog but it suggested the skritt should be charr food.
Charr don’t eat sentient races (anymore). Though it’s implied – heavily – that they ate humans in GW1’s time, we’ve been told that they don’t in GW2’s time, at the very least.
@ZoSo: Likely just an empty threat.
Stop treating GW2 as a single story. Each Season and expansion should be their own story.
An empty threat, or a baseless asura assumption, haha.
I wouldn’t put it above a Charr to snack on a Skritt, if the opportunity arises.
Especially Flame Legion. Toasty!
Do you even lift, bro?
Think of all those quests and events that require you to kill Skritt. Would YOU let all that good meat go to waste?
They may not taste very good though. In Plains of Ashford, you can overhear two Charr talking about their favourite foods, and one of them says, “NOT harpy. Tastes like chicken covered in sewage.”
Well Skritt are kind of scrawny, not sure you would get much good eating meat off one :P
Besides, look at the amount of weird, toxic, dangerous, exlposive things they collect up due to their ‘shinyness’, you would be lucky to not catch something fatal from eating them.
It would be a bit like eating a beef burger and discovering it was full of drug injected horse meat ……. oh wait….
I thought the Charr diet was “Whatever fits in your mouth.”

That is one of my favorite quests in the game.
Anyway, i like the skritt so much i hope charr don’t eat them. Yes, they are agressive, but cute…in a way.
Well, if you have Euryale as your companion (as Charr ofc) she say’s something along the lines of “I tried Skritt rations once…never again”.So this leads me to believe that,
yes Skritt could very well be part of a warbands diet.
If i don’t forget i’ll post a screenshot of it later.
That sounds more like food that the Skritt would eat, not food made of Skritt.
That aside, concerning food made of sentient beings, I hear Heket legs are a delicacy in Elona…

Could also mean Skritt are horrible cooks.

I wish our frog guys looked like that. That’d actually be a race I’d root for being playable…but probably to EQ-esque.
Since the skritt came up with the asura, or possibly a little later (we didn’t see them in GW1, iirc), then my guess is that they wouldn’t have interacted with the charr until the charr stopped eating sentients. Lucky for the skritt, I say. The charr used to call humans mice all the time when they were considered snackables, so I can only imagine what they would have done to actual mice.
