Do Races in pvp really matter if you got default models for enemys

If there is a class that looks good on one race and you want to take it to pvp, something like a norn or charr, extra large characters. is it really that disturbing or is it just paranoia (to be fair, before i found the default option, asuras allways rect me, long time ago)

I am not quite sure if I understand your question.Do you mean if it's much of a difference between Charr/Norn and Standard Models?

A lot of players use default models because it's easier to distinguish when skills are being used on a human model rather than an Asuran model.

i mean if being a charr or norn, given that they have the highest body types, could prove as a disadvatage, since your so big.

Nah, it has no impact.Only Asuras have advantage due to their animations.

well but if you use default mode it doesnt matter if you fight an asura or not, since everyone is human. :P

It doesn't matter if you use Charr or Norn either

females have harder to read default model animations, only differene

Is that because you're watching your toons "curves" rather than the game?

If you are NOT using standard models, I find that big & small models have different pros & cons.

• Smaller models like Asuran are better at landing DPS bursts for obvious reasons. It also helps to equip them with dull colored armors and weapons that do not draw attention.
• Larger models like Male Norn or Char are good to use on Supports, Bunkers, or anything that is willing to draw visual attention for the team. It helps to equip them with flashy armors and weapons. This way, your tiny dull colored DPS guys have visual cover when fighting next to a big Char Spellbreaker who is swinging around a Twilight and displaying his backpack wings.
