I mean, don’t get me wrong, this trait is amazing in its current iteration. But why Human Growth Hormone? I don’t want to inject some dirty bookah juice in my veins! Please Anet, rename the trait AGH: Asuran (aka master race) Growth Hormone! Thanks.

Next up: why an AED is useless on a sylvari engineer.

After around 3 years of HGH rename it to AGH? No, thanks.
Other proffensions maybe will be confused if u say:
“i am running a AHG build” – “what is AGH???”
The name is fine as it is.

I fail to see the logic in renaming it after the race that doesn’t appearently actually grow.

Maybe it should be called Norn or Charr Growth Hormone then?

It’s god kitten disgraceful. I would never consume anything created by a repulsive, inferior race. It’s all these bloody socialists and liberals running around, making us think races should work together for a better future.

Poppykitten!

Segregated living spaces! All lesser mortals should be tagged and have their products boycotted. Their ranks should be systematically eliminated! These humans have started a war. Forcing our engineers to consume their dirty hormones rather than pure blood, asuran, premium hormones.

I will personally not rest until these humans have been brought to justice. The ungodly monopoly humans have on the growth hormone market must be stopped at all costs!

Where do they get human growth hormones? From dead human babies and fetuses (like stemcells harvesting) As a Charr I approve of this. They taste like chicken too.

fellow Asurans, worry not. we have the whole of Tyria on the palms of our little hands. Let’s not boycott HGH, that will just make us look like the bad guys.
Instead, let’s milk everyone by raising prices on our WPs.

It was actually our superior Asuran technology that harvested the HGH from humans. Otherwise, what good are they? They are HGH farms, nothing more.

Let’s stick some science into this
The Asura are a species more advanced than humans of the 21st century, so they will most likely also possess the technology to produce it recombinant in a host organism like yeast.
Also, human GH has a sequence identity of only ~67 % to the GH found in cats (which I assume to be as close of a relative to Charr as Bonobos are to us), the effects on injecting it to a mighty Charr warrior might range from ineffectiveness to death by allergic shock.

(I have no idea what species would be the closest relative to Asura, but you guys can use whatever you think to test genetic similarity of Asura and Humans with that tool )

On topic: growth hormone is generally referred to as “GH” or Somatropin (with the origin in front, like bovine, human, etc.) so Anet should change the name in order to avoid a kitten storm on twitter for discriminating against charr/norn/asura…

think of it as Humanoid Growth Hormone :P

@above

actually technologically humans of 21st are more advanced than asura. ASura are simply more techmagical. Even charr pure tech wise are better than asura (confirmed by AN).
