AyeJ.6853 Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Hello, I'm getting back into the game, but I can't decide which race would look the best for warrior.I'm torn between Charr and female Norn.I already have a level 25 Charr warrior, but I made it about 2 years ago and I'm unsure whether I should delete it and start over as a female norn.Warrior just seems natural for the demeanor and background that Charrs have, but aesthetically, I feel as though female norns are able to wear heavy armor in a cleaner fashion (less clipping) without being too big and bulky like male norns and too slim like humans.

Shirlias.8104 Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 I would say Male Norn or Male Charr, because they are mighty.But also human and Sylvari could be a good moderate choice ( more realistic and less pumped ).I suggest you to try on SPvP lobby the greatsword and hammer animations ( which are the best animations for a warrior ), then decide yourself.Ps: remember that with both large characters as charr and norns it is difficult to achieve tasks like JPs.

RSLongK.8961 Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 1) MOST IMPORTANT: NEVER delete character! You will lose the birthday presents. Park it somewhere else to mine a node if you dont like but never delete it. A new character slot in not that expensive and once/twice a week it gets discounted.2) As above, try animations on pvp lobby, some may be off putting. Norn female gs animation is kinda weird.

Holykitten.3064 Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 My warrior is a female Norn. I love her. She’s my Viking warrior babe. Slight tan, blonde hair with the quiff/central Dutch braid and forehead jewellery. She’s the kitten.I disagree with the above, Norn female can handle the great sword with more grace compared to other humanoid females in game.

DedTreeJig.3245 Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 I have a male Charr warrior and a female Norn necro, I like the vibe my Charr gives off as he goes crazy with dual axes. My statuesque female Norn with the glowing green eyes feels better suited to stand silently by as she watches your slow, agonizing death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blambidy.3216 Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Norn or human however. There is a site if the warrior is human and you could make him look like captain America. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeanBB.4268 Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 "Best" and "aesthetics" are highly subjective. Me, I don't care for either of the large character models. I make mostly human female toons. While I like the Asura, their models are so tiny, it feels like a waste to dress them up. Sylvari are... just ok.But follow the advice to never delete an old toon, since it resets the birthday rewards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarlett.1605 Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Human female, although I think that makes up like 75% of the game populationSylvari, I think, have really fun dialogue and comments, plus they are the most colorful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pifil.5193 Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 I have a female norn and male charr warrior and for me it's the charr all the way. I love the way my charr warrior fights, his blows just look so... meaty! But I'd say take Shirlias.8104's advice and try them out in the spvp lobby, ymmv!

EpicName.4523 Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 The warriors are supposed to be strong and imposing. As already suggested male norn or charr are your best bet for this. I find it stupid to supposedly be playing a heavily armored juggernaut which is a head or two shorter than the random norn/charr in light/medium armor standing right next to me. Personally went with norn male for that barbarian look. No regrets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega.6801 Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 Hmm...since it's a question of taste, the answer will be as simple as it will be unhelpful: whatever you like more. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilgato.8034 Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 Always go Sylvari, that's my advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely Charr! Female Norn have ridiculous body posture and girly movement for a warrior/hunter race, and their fighting noises sound like they were taken out of a s&m adult movie.

Crossaber.8934 Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 It all comes down to personal preference.I have five warriors, and i settle thier race by weapon choice. Hammer war i go with norn; axe war i go with Charr; Rifle war i go with Asura; condition war i go with Sylvari; sword war i go with human.Roaming Spellbreakerhttps://i.imgur.com/96MlYj6.jpg?1[/img]Burnzerkerhttps://i.imgur.com/lLLLkeo.jpg[/img]Shout Heal Spellbreakerhttps://i.imgur.com/dqAmA1C.jpg[/img]Roaming Core Warriorhttps://i.imgur.com/ABYLbz1.jpg[/img]Gunflame Berserkerhttps://i.imgur.com/KqQdFeY.jpg[/img] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chay.7852 Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 Every race works for me but human female - why? because i cant stand when, as a berserker, she calls "i will destroy you all!" - its SO annoying... :sI have a female norn and a male charr wariors and i love them both.

Vayne.8563 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Charr will probably have more clipping issues than norn. Just another thing to consider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This.That being said, I have five Warriors: two Human Berserkers, one Asura Spellbreaker, one Human Base Warrior, and one Norn Berserker that will eventually become a Spellbreaker. Warriors can be anything you want. I made my Asura Spellbreaker the shortest, lankiest build I could and he's my dedicated CC machine that hits like a truck. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plautze.6290 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 I main a human warrior and it feels and looks okay.But then again, I'm planning on making a norn warrior for those sweet, sweet norn cultural heavy armors.So as @Brother.1504 already said, roll both ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falson.5284 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Always Asura warrior. Dangerous things in small packages, lots of aggression condensed into a smaller body, etc. Plus I personally love the hundred blades animation for asura Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ardenwolfe.8590 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Human, but since that's not an option . . . definitely a charr if male or norn if female. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dashiva.6149 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 In case of doubt, do both! Many people make multiple alts of the same class with different builds rather than keep switching builds/gear on only one character, or if they like you want to have different races to play with.
