InsaneQR.7412 Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Honestly I'd say human because norn have huge shoulders which I think looks ugly AF but this is an opinion thing.I myself have a sylvari sooooo... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lan Deathrider.5910 Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 You forgot male vs female. Norn female heavy armor is nice AF, but then so is human female so...For a male character, human hands down between the two. Norn males just look like inflated balloons to me.

RedShark.9548 Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 I have every race as warrior, but my main is a norn, tallest and broadest charactermodel. I want my enemies in wvw to recognize me, so they know their doom is coming :^) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Opopanax.1803 Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 Seems like this should be in the Necro forum.That said, norn run too slow when in combat, except for the smallest sized females.So, Human or smallest female Norn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strider.7849 Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 Norn looks the best to me in heavy (male) but if you ever PvP or WvW, it's better to go human or Norn female. The animations/size and distance judgement on skill range are heavy disadvantages on Norn males. As someone who's played both you can pull off amazing combos on human male or land attacks that you will never land on a Norn male. Some very notable and important skills include killshot, eviscerate, full counter, arcing slice, and skullcrack and it's berserk form. This effectively eliminates a lot of options both in weapon choices and an entire elite spec. Even in massive zerg fights I've had people just dodge my full counter when on a human male it literally tags everyone. You want to avoid Norn males on classes that are dependent on animation/animation cancelling - rev/warrior especially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alabastrum.9361 Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 Norn are bigger humans same animations (as far as I am aware). 100b with no hopping arround though.Would recvomend smallest size for best possible run animation.Humans are basic and have silly rush animation.Silvary supposedly have faster animations.Salad is also good becaue there are no forks in land combat. Just watch out for forks in the road!Asuras are annoying cause hard to see. (they also pretty much float in the air while 100b) Asuras have a very different dodge animation. armor doesn't matter only other Aasura players will notice xd.Charr have the coolest animations like sideflip on eviscerate charching like animals on rush. Not hopping around on 100b. (armor choices are garbage though)Run on all fours ooc.Dont forget the voices if you play with sound or else it could come to haunt you xd.

I hear that they don't kneel for Killshot, not that I ever rolled a rat, or fought one that was a warrior...Azura has a lot of advantages for warrior (I had one in the past too alongside my Norn and human male warriors). The most notable: no kneeling on kill shot, the dodge animation is a flip and in fast combat looks almost exactly like eviscerate (axe F1 burst is a similar style of flip). Mace skills are virtually impossible to see, making stun-locking easier.The only "disadvantage" (if you can call it that) is that being such a small size, sometimes you end up closer to your target then you need to be. That was why I prefered human male since the range of skills (this is especially on greatsword) is true to size. These kind of things only matter when you've reached a point of mastering certain abilities/timings/ranges, like intentionally trying to clip 100blades at the very top of it's range (allows things like following up with a jump dodge past your target if they had broken CC, at the same time hitting them with reckless dodge, then using whirlwind backwards and clipping them with all 3x hits for maximum damage output on a few attacks).

NBlizzard.6724 Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Human...simply because of their voices when they shout. Both male and female sound wonderful, especially Nolan with the male one. Male norns on the other hand have poor postures and sound drunk all the time. Well if you are going to RP as a drunk Norn with a hunchback, it can be a good choice too. Female norns are well designed in comparison other than the cheesy dialogues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sorry but (no disrespect to the Female VA, as she does a good job) But seriously... I can not stop hearing this.... So as a result... I do not see human female as a Tyrian Hero off to save the world, but a mother from southpark.In many ways I kinda wish you had an option to pick a voice for your character... but that is unreasonable due to how much dialogue there is in the game now.

Are you saying norn should have a base higher Power stat but have a lower Prec stat, and humans have a lower Power stat but a higher Prec stat?I mean this could have been a cool concept for them to have done to be fair with all the races.
