Heritage set with cultural T2 hat.

The rest of the cultural T2 set, no shoulders + transmuted starter mask (comedy).

Love the look and animations of Asura in general, but I think human has the best cosmetics for mesmer.

Lore-wise any race works as a Mesmer. I picked Sylvari for mine because I had the idea of a villainous sylvari that used spores to cause hallucinations. As far as aesthetics the bigger races look more odd as scholar classes compared to sylvari, human, or asura. But I’d go sylvari, cuz … this:

I went for sylvari simply because it’s more natural for tree people to turn into butterflies

Hey Chris.

I stand by my motto of charr=master race, but that is some cool armor. What is it? Im assuming cultural?

Go Norn or go home!

The only proper way to look at other players is when you’re looking down on them.

Kudos to Locoman for the pic.

Don’t do it for Aesthetics, go Asura. The added annoyance and smaller animations makes it harder for people to pick you out.

I actually… Really want to try a norn out now O.o

So far the only race I never touched was charr… We need more charr pictures here :P

The answer will always be norn!

But seriously go with aesthetics if you plan on investing lots in the character, in my opinion. Liking looks allows me to forgive whenever the current patch has my class weaker than usual to a larger extent.

Always Sylvari. Unless you want wacky animations, then Asura.

I personally prefer human because my main toon is a human mesmer, but Sylvari also works as well too.

My mesmer is an Asura. She’s little, cute, and makes other little cute things.
Personally, I prefer the armour for human’s, but I’d never trade in my itty bitty mesmer.

For WvW i would roll smallest asura possible. In PVE it is kinda irrelevant. I prefer human girl toon. They look best in light armor

My mesmer is also human. I mean you have the only elite in the game that can compete with time warp for usefulness (Hounds of Balthazar). Also you are a member of the master race. And you’re not a dirty charr, so there’s that.
