The third and fourth videos (I believe) feature a really good elementalist.

WOW. That ele rocked. The guardian wasn't bad either and the warrior finally got its groove on the final video.

[Malthurius]

Those are great pvp video Rowen, best I've seen yet.

The Koreans bet Anet and won themselves those boxed Charr Plushie's.

Does anyone know wether that elementalist is a human or a sylvari? It'll depend on the choice that I make with my ele ^^

It's human. But unlike Wow, GW2 has no PVP racials or stat differences, so if you plan on playing the same race because it looks powerful, it's because of player skill, not the race.

Not stats differences, but there are elite racial abilities. The ele in the videos used Tornado, so the point is moot though.

I know, I know, but the ele and the ARMOR just looked so awesome. That's why xD

There are also some racial utility skills.

Does armor change much between races? (apart from the obvious)

True, didn't remember those.

There are armors designed for specific races and armors that will work on multiple races

[Chaos Tkz]

Damn those videos are good. I can't wait to get into hardcore pvp in this game!

[Rowen]

Credit for the GW guru folk for finding these: looks like mobs now dodge and weapon swap and kite melee players. The timing of the dodge seems off as that most times doesn't do anything, and I can see the kiting becoming annoying (and brutal for those poor newb keyboard turners), but hopefully this'll mean the transition from PvE to PvP won't be as brutal for new players as in other games.

Seems they've also put in the "slay" animations to prevent players from being ressed.

It's here, at 1.18. Seems nice, better than floating and crashing on your enemy

That link doesn't work.

That link doesn't work.

Meh! Thanks for the warning, fixed it. Not a big forum user so the nifty skills still elude me .
Here's the link, just in case it doesn't work again: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gpp3t..._order&list=UL

Well made animation :-D

[Alatian]

I'm kind of disappointed in the fatality animation. I was under the impression that each one would be unique to the profession. I hoped something more along the lines of an Engineer pulling out a pistol for a point blank shot. Hopefully this is just another placeholder animation (and to be fair, this one looks a lot better than the last), and we'll get proper MK style fatalities (although not quite as gruesome)!

[Bartuc the Bloody]

The improved cinematics are amazing the facial expressions are spot on with what the voice actors are saying I couldn't even spot one flaw holy crap ;O
