Guild Wars 2

Spoilers if you haven’t beat the HoT story yet (or watched the video currently sitting on the front page). Ye be warned

Y’know I just realized a day or so ago, that we fought alongside Eir for years (real world and in game time), and not once did we get to see the awesome blood red wolf form she is supposed to frequently take on in battle. It’s a crying shame.

There are multiple Norn NPCs who use their shifted form all the time, wolf and bear forms seem to be particularly common. So clearly there is no technical limitation, and so far as I know there is also no lore explaining why she would not use her shapeshifting ability in battle.

So, I would like suggest, out of respect for, and to round out the character, that we get Eirs wolf form added to her kit. She feels kind of incomplete without it.

EDIT: It’s been pointed out to me that there is one instance where Eir uses become the Wolf, in a Norn personal story instance called The Championship Fight, which I have never played because I never chose the character creation option that pertains to it.

So… the functionality is even there already, she just doesn’t ever use the skill in the remaining story steps where she appears. Just that one. But why?

The norn spirit form ability kind of got forgotten about, as far as I can tell.

The norn spirit form ability kind of got forgotten about, as far as I can tell.

It does seem like it. Fewer NPCs turn lately, and don’t get me started on how almost useless it is for our characters…it needs to be included for Eir and other NPCs and also needs a small boost to make it useful(NOT OP) for players to WANT to use it.
