Guild Wars 2

Hey there.

I have serious problem. As far as I know, mesmer is one of most cool and best classes in game on par with ranger, at least for me.

So I try to do that mesmer, and picking off different classes to see how they look in armor with different weapons. and i stuck.

Done almost each race : norn female, sylvari female, asura male up to lvl 12-20.
And can’t decide on a single race cause noone fit my taste…
I love how “Archmagish” armor look on male bodies, it’s serious, saying “hey im a mesmer im gonna kick your kitten soon” while on most females armors looks like they left circus 5 minutes ago ;/.

As I like sylvari overall animations, I just can’t stand any of the armor look except masquarade set or so ? ( this with huge dress ).

And all the staff is slowly pushing me for my norn ranger due to awesomeness of ranger armors & medium norn specific armors in general.

So what made your mind about race for that Mesmer when it comes to armor looks ?

I’m a Sylvari for the Take Root and Druid Spirit elites.
I heard Hounds of Balthazar are very OP with Mesmers.

But I just love my adorable Mesmer <3

Don’t play my class, please. It takes more then looking cool to be a mesmer.
Do me a favor and stop picking classes due to aesthetics and pick them because you like how the play.

Did You seriously read what i wrote ? i said I love this class.

I just wrote in total that I can’t decide on Race with which to play.

I love my Sylvari Mesmer, but it does look weird/annoying when just my head glows while the rest of my body is dark. Wasn’t much of a problem when I wore T2, but I hate the back of the T2 Chest. Still, I thoroughly enjoy the Sylvari as a Mesmer, because I think it just goes with the butterflies. But if there weren’t any Sylvaris, I’d probably do an Asura, because I think it’s cute how they go up in the air when they do Blurred Frenzy (skill 2 of MH Sword).

Why don’t you just make a character the way you want it to look, go through the first tutorial part, then go to The Heart of the Mist, and preview the armors from the lockers?

I am a charr mesmer running around in citadel of flame clothes ( glove and armor at least) , its quite interesting set, but charrs have some very weird animation for mesmers.

I’d advice you to go trough this post, I think it’ll give you a pretty good idea on how cool each race can look.

also, in regards to your question, i picked norn cause i liked the idea of turning into a beast, don’t actually use the racial elite that much, but its still nice to have it xD

Sylvari Male Mesmer myself. I fell in love with how the class played during the Betas. Was a Charr Mesmer then. The play style just fits the way I like to play, which is playing with other people’s minds LOL. When it came to the Armor it came down to actually Faction armor. I went with the Vigil and I just love the look for the armor. It isn’t a robe/dress like a lot of the other armor. Its asymmetry works great for me. Would love though to see some more armors like it.

Edit: Just want to add it makes him look like he actually has abs as well which is a bonus to me really. Without it his stomach area is rather flat.

My first Mesmer was a human female, loved having a red mohawk. But it drove me crazy that I looked like a stick. Went to Norn female (already had 2), I don’t look like a stick, and have a tattoo. I have a sylvari Ranger, but I don’t like how they look running around in skimpy armor.

Still miss the mohawk though.

Asurans get really nice utility skills for being Mesmer. Radiation Field <3.

Don’t play my class, please.

Don’t use my internet, please.

Anyway, I’m all for Sylvari mesmers. It matches the effects best I think, and I hate most of the female cloth armor on Humans and Norns.

Mine is a Human Female due to the T3 racial armor skimp being really nice looking.
