Guild Wars 2

On a race or class its really bugging me

Well your race is almost entirely cosmetic. It affects your personal story until level 30 and you get a few racial skills but it doesn’t make a big difference to your gameplay. So just go with whichever you like the best. If you like multiple ones then pick any of them. Or make multiple characters so you can have them all.

Profession is more complicated, I couldn’t possibly tell you which to pick without at least some info on what you want from it.

The sylvari glow made my decision for my main.

If you’re not fond of any of the race aesthetics, it may help to look at the racial skills, as some of them can be fun for certain professions. Examples:

Asura: Radiation Field is a poison combo field; can be useful for warriors, who don’t have many combo fields available, but lots of finishers
Charr: Charrzooka offers lots of combo finishers; can be useful for staff Eles, who have very few combo finishers
Sylvari: the Druid Spirit offers regeneration, condition removal, and roots foes; can be useful for thieves, who have limited support capabilities.
Human: Avatar of Melandru is similar to Druid Spirit, except the player is in control of the support skills, which can be good or bad, depending on your perspective

I haven’t used the Norn racial skills much, but I’m sure they have creative uses as well.

Of course, then there are combinations that are just for fun: I made my mesmer a Charr just because it sounded fun to have him whip out a Charrzooka occasionally. My thief is an Asura because I thought the Asuran dodge and jump animations fit, and some of the medium armors look less like trenchcoats on Asura.

Good luck!

Max-size fat norn is the correct race. I went with warrior for mine but guardian is also an acceptable choice.
