  • Sylvari Redesign & Video | ArenaNet

    Oooh, oooh, it seems I missed some news while I was relaxing in France, but I guess it's better to post it late than never.

    It was known for a while now, that the Sylvari were getting a redesign. Some of you also noticed their absence in some of the latest Guild Wars 2 trailers. Just recently ArenaNet finished this young race, and the results are stunning. Take a look for yourself in this next video


    Besides this video, a lot more information on the Sylvari has been handed out. You can read this in 2 articles by ArenaNet, one being The Sylvari Soul, the other Dream and Nightmare.

    In these articles they talk about the origin and personalities of the Sylvari, which I personally find the most intriguing and unique race of them all.

      Hm... I don't know.. I liked the previous design slightly better, they were less "planty". But I guess it makes more sense how they are now, since they are plants

      Now they are more planty:

      The redesign made me think whether I'm sure I want to roll a charr. I'm betting on the character customization, if it let's me be a bad-*** Sylvari, I'm sold. They've got awesome lore behind them, excellent for a mysterious Thief.
