Guild Wars 2

Is there a reason that Charr don’t get the much nicer floating sword animation for Spatial Surge (GS #1) that the other races have?

Uniqueness can be nice but IMO this is a case where I’d rather not be :P The floating sword blast is just way better looking

They didn’t make the animation for charrs because it would be wasting time on an unpopular race. It’s the same reason almost every armor clips with the tail and appears stretched on them.

I don’t know why you complain you get a very nice and unique animation. The only other race with a unique animation are the Asura. The rest get the float thing.

They had no way of knowing popularity when they were setting up animations.

Charr and asura probably get their own animations because they can’t use the generic ones made for the human-shaped races. Their skeletons are just too different.

They already use this animation on other skills, so it isn’t just unique to the Mesmer’s greatsword #1. And of course they can use the animation without stretching, they just chose not to because it would be more work for an unpopular race. You can tell they just rushed through it too because of the way the electricity stretches from the left hand to the right.

Don’t Feed the troll pls.

i hope they fix soon.

Neither do asura…

I personally prefer the Charr animation for GS #1. When your mesmer is male human or norn, i think it’s quite girly on that part. I wish my male Norn Mesmer do that same animation like that of the Charr’s.
