Guild Wars 2

Hi, I recently began playing as a female charr guardian and have been having a blast. But there are some striking graphical problems when it comes to wearing armor. Here’s a list:

1). Floating pauldrons/shoulder pads: this is a big problem when playing as a charr with one of the lighter body types. My charr has the third smallest body size and some of the pauldrons don’t even connect with her body. After previewing various armours at the PvP locker in the Mists, I realised that this affects most pauldron types with only certain types being unaffected (such as the cultural armor). If the cultural armor pauldrons don’t have this issue then why not make similar fixes with the other pauldron types?

2). Floating shields: again, this is glaringly obvious if you picked one of the smaller body sizes – the shield floats about a foot away from my character’s back when out of combat (extremely noticable). During combat, the situation isn’t much better with the shield floating quite far from the character’s arm.

3). Other floating items: these issues aren’t quite as glaring as the ones above, but it’s still an issue. Two handed weapons worn on the back of charr characters with the slimmer build also float several inches from the back. With the larger body size this is not an issue but it definitely needs work on the smaller bodies.

4). Tooth clipping: a minor issue affecting those of us who went for large, jutting teeth on out charr: almost any mask or helm that covers the mouth has the tips of the teeth clipping through. A bit irritating and silly, but not as glaring as my first two points and probably only affecting a minority of charr players. Still, I’d be happy to see a fix.

So Arenanet, please do something to fix these issues for us charr players. It would certainly encourage many of us to play our charr characters more often! I’m having a great time playing this game, but these issues are marring my experience somewhat at the moment.

Thanks for reading, and please feel free to add any other charr armor issues that are constructive to this thread.

Yesterday i got my first exotic shoulderpads from a dungeon. Well, you can see the rest here (2nd post), added some screenshots.

Please fix these issues with female charrs.
