Nice find...

Why is the Paragon wearing a flames eye?

They basically used the same character models as the elementalist

Still doesn't make any sense as to why they would have a flaming eye... Unless it is a randomly assigned skin because they haven't finished implementing the artwork yet...

Too bad we can't make female Paragons or male Dervishes for the event, though. =/

I highly doubt that's the case. That would just be silly

Agreed, it would be silly, I would however be interested in how Reks came to this conclusion though.

The 6/26 Gaile Log seemingly implied a "gender-lock" for this weekend's event. Of course, I hope I'm just wrong and uninformed.

<--- wants to try a male Dervish.

Indeed the log does say that the gender will be limited, but it doesn't say which way. Maybe we will play only male characters, or only female... Interesting that no one has picked up on this before now. This suggests one of two things:
1) They haven't fully implemented the body model for one of the genders, or
2) They haven't fully implemented the armour for one of the genders.
Maybe even both So this beta is somewhat unlike the beta for Factions. Which further suggests to me that we will be seeing Nightfall around December.

Agreed, with Factions it was the same. There was a whole host of stuff that Korea (Asia in general) got (screenies etc) that NA and EU didn't. Maybe they treat their CR better...

Not entirely accurate translation on the dervish, but meh. My studybooks are at home to verify

Odd thing if they really allowed only one gender of each for the weekend preview o.0? Maybe we'll get only one face, one hair and one skintone as well

I don't get this... your right!

Why is it the EU or main Guildwars sites don't post or provide us with information like that?

Are we not worth it?

Not entirely correct. A ウ followed by a small kana, will become a "v". So it's de-ru-vii-shu. Dervish. Silly guildwiki.org :P "It is suspected the untranslated parts mean"

Myea, that's what confused me. My self-study books don't have anything for 'v', so I had to improvise. Guess my book is too old or something

Oh wow, okay I retract my earlier comment. Thanks for pointing it out folks. Still is a bit silly but I'm sure ANet have their reasons. At least it's something to whet our appetite til the next preview event.

Given that female Paragons kinda look like eles, and male Dervishes have been ralated to a whole host of things, I'd say most guy players want to make a female paragon and a male dervish. Ironically, it seems they won't be able to and that gives me a bit of a laugh

Because ArenaNet obviously do not have NCsoft under control. (NCsoft own ANet, not the other way round, you know.) And NCsoft are Korean.

NCsoft as the publisher does some of the marketing. They deal with retailers (hence the "leaked" content info on EBgames) and they coordinate the Asian GW websites (hence the "leaked" images on the Japanese website yesterday and now these new images ("leaked" again?) on the Korean site.

I guess some poeple at ANet are pretty mad at NCsoft right now for messing up the marketing time schedule. Sh*t happens.

Mrm. I have to agree that the paragon doesn't look very... masculine. I mean, a mini skirt we can accept; a tanktop with man muscles and feathery wings drawn in it, we can... grudgingly accept. but... BOTH? whattahell. Add to that the fact he stands around with his hips slightly dislocated to one side, and there we have Priscillagon, Queen of the Crystal Desert, out to poke you with her spear!!!

Needless to say, my original plans to play a male para and a female derv once nightfall is out are undergoing serious reconsideration...
