    Guild Wars 2: Who will you be playing?

    Just a little poll to see which race is currently the fore runner. If you've missed any of the info on races a link is here. http://www.guildwars2.com/en/the-game/races/

    I personally will be playing an Asura as after reading the novels they just are so O.O mind blowing. I especially hope to see how we will interract with the servitor golem.

    Here's some info on racials:

    Asura
    *Arcane Blast (Ranged skill of unknown capabillities/properties)
    *Radiation Field (Skill of unknown qualities)
    *Golem Battlesuit - Enables the user to create automated armour http://wiki.guildwars2.com/images/d/...oncept_art.jpg

    Charr
    *Battle roar (Skill qualities unknown)
    *Shrapnel Mine - Place a Shrapnel Trap
    *Warband Support [Elite] - Summon allies from your Warband

    Human
    *Hounds of Balthaszar - Summon a pair of fiery hounds to aid you http://wiki.guildwars2.com/images/c/...oncept_art.jpg
    *Prayer of Dwayna - Self Heal
    *Prayer of Kormir - Removes a negative condition

    Norn
    *Bear Form - Call upon the bear spirits strength transforming the user into a half-norn half-bear increasing the users health http://wiki.guildwars2.com/images/1/...er_norn_02.jpg
    *Raven Form - (Unknown Properties) http://wiki.guildwars2.com/images/c/c6/Versus.jpg
    *Leopard Form - (See Above)
    *Wolf Form - (See Above)

    Sylvari
    *Blessing of the Pale Tree - Protects the User
    *Grasping Roots - Imobilieses the foe
    [Two Further unnamed racials. One relates to the large Oakhearts http://wiki.guildwars2.com/images/4/45/Oakheart.jpg and another heals allies]

    From what I can tell from the link you gave me, I would say Norn. They look awesome

    Norn warrior, perfect match.

    Though I foresee this thread to get locked, as there are already few threads like this.
    And the big GW discussion thread.

    I'm going sylvari! Like them lorewise and they have the best look.

    What class i'm gonna roll? No damn clue. All look cool.. I love the elementalist, necromancer and thief most though.. Wanna see what the last class will be..

    An interesting point on the thief is his abillity to snatch weapons out of his opponents hands then use them against the foe.

    Sylvari are great as a humanoid plant race I think they are fairly unique? I haven't really seen a race in a game before that was based upon plants which also means it's a self sustaining race thanks to photosynthesis

    I must admit that in that one trailer the Charr had an awesome voice, still prefer the aesthetics of the Asura though

    Presumably human but I'll make my final decision on the character creation screen. Will be based solely on looks.

    It depends if they have racial abilities, but it is a toss up between Norn and Charr
