Guild Wars 2

I recently started playing a thief and it seems fairly ovious that bein smal and out of sight, i.e. an asuran has many advantages as a thief to conceal oneself longer and less noticeable when approaching someone to attack such as in pvp. However the asurans don’t have the hazey dodge animation like the others which leaves them to be less desired. So my question itself is, does the character size really have much impact in fights other than the element of surprise, or does it in fact make any difference in pvp fights. Just food for thought. I made a norn thief and the animations looks good but shes over 6" tall so it seemed a little ovious to see a giant running at you and think oh, its a thief giant, i should get ready.

Well its sure hard to backstab asura sometimes…

Size does matter.

Always play the small race.

These statements are incorrect. The only reason at all that size may factor in is LoS on smaller hills.

Lol Backstab isn’t any harder to hit on an Asura then a norn. I personally think size has a very small effect ie. line if sight I guess. The best thing is just play the race you like, If you want a 6ft tall thief then go for it, doesn’t matter much anyway.

Actually it is harder to find asuras back compared to norns. Size matters. they are small round and their face looks same as their kitten . Hard to backstab.
