They are looking a lot more fun than humans. I know I want to make an Elementalist, Mesmer (if they arent the last class then I will personally organize a riot to burn down Anet HQ), Guardian and a Thief.
I definitely want to make a human mesmer that follows Lyssa as her diety for RP reasons (my mesmer in GW1 was my oly female character because male mesmers were fugly).
I want a Norn Guardian because either Guardian or Ranger seems to fit the Norn the best (from an RP perspective again, and I dont like playing rangers)
I wanted to be a human elementalist, but if the mesmer is going to be a Human for sure then I would want something else. RP wise elementalist + engineer would be the Asura's favored classses (magic + engineering + pew pew pew is what they are meant to do). For a Sylvari, and Earth specialized elementalist would fit. I dislike asuras and like the Sylvari a lot more now ....
For the Thief I am undecided. It doesnt really seem to fit any particular race, and it wouldnt be a main character, so maybe if I use a Sylvari for my elementalist main, and an Asura for the thief.
Then I also want to have an Engineer, again as a test alt like the thief and not a main character. A charr would be great for this as Warrior or Engineer seems to fit them the best.
Sooooo....
Human Mesmer
Sylvari Elementalist
Norn Guardian
Asura Thief
Charr Engineer.
I hope we get 5 character slots at least, one for each race. The necromancer, ranger and warrior are all boring classes to me and I'll never want to play them, so that plan seems nice.
