I have decided to come back to gw2 and finally make a main character being warrior.
What race is the best looking race for warrior? Which one feels best / fluid and has good animations for every weapon?

Like asura rush looks weird and bugged for example?

Thanks

What is the best looking? That is something that is completely subjective.

Like asking someone what the best flavor of soda is, everyone likes different things.

Choose what you like, but a few things to note:

Human/Sylvari/Norn are all very similar in how their armors look on models. Humans have no defining features on their models, they are pretty much “default”, Sylvari are more colorful and have a glowing effect in certain areas of their models, and Norn have the massiveness and tattoos which define them.

Charr are large, but their posture make it difficult to see some of their armor pieces, and they tend to have the worst issues with armor clipping and leg skirts.

Asura have some of the best animations for their attacks, but are very small, meaning it is difficult to see details in their armor and weapons, as well as have a very 50/50 look to their character models which can be hard to work with unless you want a “cutsie” looking character, or an insanely ugly one.

For the Asura rush, it happens to all races, same with sword 2, sometimes your character just flies in random directions, that is more of a game issue than a race one.

Personally (my opinion) I chose Asura for 50% of my characters (I wanted other races made too for story achieves) simply due to their animations and stances. Greatsword on Asura is a good indication on the vast difference in animations.

I vote Charr. My warrior is Charr for the same reasons you want. They have more animations than other races, are big like a warrior should be and are the most unique race in the game imo.

If you want to be the 0815 PvE-Warrior, take blonde female human with a short skirt,build eternity and get your dungenmaster/dungeoneer.

Then you’ve played through Gw2

If you want to be kitten,take charr

I personally can’t stand norns or charrs.

Either asura or humans are all I can really bear with. In the end it’s just whatever you think looks good.

i tihnk the Sylvaris look better with one “magic” classes like mesmer, necro or Ele.
Asura… well they’re small so you can’t see so much details, wich is sad, since their cultural armor is pretty cool on my opinion.
Norn are cool, when you want to make a brutal looking, tattoed, barbarian character (or you just want a cool non-barbie female character) , which suits heavy armor classes a lot in my opinion.
Human…is kind of “default”, but i like the Personal story, I made my guardian human. i don’t like the cultural armor that much though.
Charr are just awesome. period. especially for the heavy armors.
They have big problems with clipping though and because of they hunched back, you don’t see so much from their breast armor.
