Though the truth is is that (for the Iron Legion, at least) the charr are far, far more intelligent than the average krogan. When you take into consideration their well-organised society, their antitheist nature, their ability to prototype, build, and mass produce without having to use borrowed alien technology (the Salarians)… ?
I’m not sure about this intelligence thing. Sure Charr society is better organized than Krogan, but so are ants. And Charr have their factions and civil wars too(cough, flame legion, cough).
Antitheism probably shouldn’t be correlated with brains, especially in a world where Gods come down and demonstrate their existence with stunning regularity.
And I feel that mass production isn’t necessarily smarter than artisans and craftmanship, just different.
Though, this probably stems from a Blood Legion bias… Blunt-object pride!
For me, the similarity with Krogan comes from the Blood Legion warriors with helms on who walk around the citadel. I guess they face the same issue of putting a huge head into a helmet, so it makes sense they look similar.
That said, Charr are far and away my favorite GW2 race. I really like how they have been differentiated from other, similar fantasy species, while filling that archetypal niche.
