Guild Wars 2

I have human warrior, and now want guardian, but can’t decide Human or Norn.

Human, because cultural armor t3 just awesome, but cost so much, i probably never can buy it.
Norn, because i’m already have human warrior and in heavy armor human looks weak, but norn proportions looks wierd

Perhaps you should try Norn, just because you already have a human, in order to have a different personal story…

Depends on gender and whether or not you care about voice acting imo. If you care about the voice acting, I’d recommend to avoid norn females. Their voices are a bit overly-manly, and sound like a regular woman trying to fake the tone. In this case I’d recommend to stick with humans since the norn males have pea-sized heads compared to their bodies.

If you don’t care about voice acting, I’d say go norn if female, human if male so you don’t get the hugely disproportionate body shapes.

Then again, it’s all an opinion. Play each for a while and see if you like it. Wasting a few hours experimenting will be better than committing and being disappointed when you hit 80 :/

Human.

I have 8 different characters, all professions and all races. I found the Norn personal story to the be the most boring (with human personal story as the 2nd most boring story!). Norn females sound very manly, like some transsexual or something and I find that distracting. I wish haven’t made my ranger into a Norn. Sighs.
I think Asuras and Sylvari have the best personal story and best female voice acting (yes, it can be overly dramatic and emotional at times).

About voice acting, I guess it depends in what language he is playing the game. As he asks this here I suppose english, but we can’t be sure ^^

first question for you is:
Do you care bout your personal story and bout voiceacting? as mentioned above it makes a big difference.

It could be that those things doesn’t make a difference for you.
The second question is if your playing male or female. Both on cultural armor and on looks this mkaes a huge difference. I dislike male norns with heavy armor, but I love the females.

Best advise if your considerations are bout armor is to make both, play through tutorial, go to the heart of the mists, and look into the locker to preview different armor sets.

I’ve found the Norns, due to thier size, to be a bit of a hassle in jumping puzzles. At least compared to humans. All my jumpers are human. They’d be Asura, but while I think the Asura are kinda cute…I hate playing one. (can’t see over stuff).

The norn “blacked out” story is awesome.
