Most Horrific/Unappealing Profession

Important Note: This is only to judge the physical traits of the profession. (i.e face, body) As well as the appearance of armor for that certain profession. Not to be confused on which profession you dislike game play wise.

A thread to discuss the most horrific/unappealing profession. This goes both ways, male and female professions. Not only facial appearance, but armor counts as well.

My vote goes toward both male and female assassins. The male assassins have a horrible choice selection of faces. The females have a horrible selection of faces too, not to mention they look anorexic. Anorexia FTL!

Male necros. *puke*

Well, they have one or two good faces/hairstyles, but that's it...

Female rits: They do not have a single face that does not look A) totally wasted or B) slack-jawed and open-mouthed.

Male mesmers remind me of people you could expect to find at a renaissance festivals, or maybe pedophiles.

Proph males warriors, they gave us some crappy selection and the female sins and dervish. They were pretty crappy as well.

Male paragons.

Just creepy.

Oh yeah, female sins too, because they're anorexic and plain and bulimic and plain and their armors are just to show off that plain-ness.

male paras and sins in general imo.

edit : i would revise my opinion of male paras if the armour selection (and armour colour) had been different...like centurion type helms or Zulu type armour.... and such, as it is now they just look weird...like something out of a bad 1970's scifi series.

I have to agree on the female Rits and I have to say that I don't find any of the Proph female Monks faces too attractive.

Honestly, NF characters. Monks and ele's especially. It really doesn't' matter what class, whichever character is created in NF just ends up looking totally fugly.

This. Everything from NF and if it doesn't have a helm and it's from factions is fugly.

I'm gonna have to /agree w/dr strangelove. Seems to me that female rits may seem like drunk sluts...but the cleavage more than makes up for it lol. They're definitely a lot bigger than most other female profs. As for armor w/nipples....see [batsuit; http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/image...ey_ap_220.jpg]]

I hate all dervish armors. The only one i believe to look decent is primeval, but every dervish and their mother has that. I'm gonna have to go with dervish, here.

It may be true that the female Assassin isn't that great to look upon face-wise, but you have to admit that they're the best when it comes to nakedness...

As far as the ones that don't appeal to me: Male Necros, definitely. I mean, they look way too hump-backed for my tastes.

Paragons are plain fugly, retarded, and homo erotic(I'm copying off whoever said that in the Batman thread).

No offense of course, but their armor is pretty stupid(I like playing the actual class because of it's role though ). I like Dervishes though, everything except them looks dumb in NF.

Oh really? (Seriously you think that is a bad face/hair combo?)

Any male Warrior. Their legs are out of proportion, specially the lower parts, each of them is almost as thick as his waist...

Mini-sized female Monks look stupid too. Makes me want to punch their faces. And any male Monk too, of course - awful ugly bodies.

On the other hand, I find vey nice the bodies of male Paragons, Rits, Rangers - good proportion, not too skinny or muscular. Just nice. Female casters and Paragons also have nice bodies, despite the very large boobs.

i tried..i really tried to actually give this unbiased thought, but the male ele dance is just a splinter in my brain and i cant get it out. its unforgivable. they have my vote. not mention that they look like marylin manson's Ken doll until u get some Vabbian armor on them. the vabbian armor when dyed right and the right head gear is win tho on a male ele.

Most male warriors, Prophecies male mesmers, and mini monks. Sorry I CANNOT stand mini monks. It doesn't look cute, everyone has one and it's annoying. Oh and female sins, AKA stick figures.

I shall quote what one of my friends said about male monks... or at least try to.

"Look at Kai's warrior when she runs... see, she runs with purpose. She's knows where she's going."

"Now look at (someone else's) Monk. He doesn't run... he... bounces. He just bounces along because he's too fat to run."

Xander, do you know the rest of the quote? I can't remember it anymore QQ

male warriors- obvious hulking flabs of meat that are out of proportion to the max

male mesmers- Hey, whatever floats your boat. I'm not going to judge...

male eles from proph- For instance, look at my avatar. It took me all of until factions came out to kick myself in the butt for putting fow on him.

The whole reason I made a female Mesmer was that I saw a screenshot of a male one and... well... yeah...

Jo's quote? I think he's the one who was like "lol male monks bounce! look!".... or was it Alan? 'Cause Alan was roughly saying the same ("My monk doesn't run, he just... bounces...").

Yeah, most male monks look like they have no neck, and they bounce. Kinda. Reminds me of that insanely... huh... I dunno how to put this politically correct, but some of the male monks look retarded.

Paragons of both genders. Males can be salvaged with Vabbian, EOTN armours, and/or an Elonian/Istani mix to get rid of the bare midriff after reaching the Docks, but female Paragon armours range from Battle Bikinis to merely Stripperiffic.

Female sins are also fairly high up on the 'hate' list due to the anorexia and the Stripperiffic nature of a lot of their armours - you'd think an assassin would want to avoid flashing pale flesh, but at least there are more options for avoiding doing so than Paragons.

See now, the bad ele boy dance is why I made one My only male char is a boy ele and I do /dance as often as I can when I play him just because it makes me giggle....yes, I am twisted.

Also to whoever said NF chars suck I totally disagree. I made a NF mesmer (female) who is stunning, and a nec girl who is cute as hell.

OT........Sins and male wars. Just eww.

Male necro's. Some of their armor is okay but all the males look like 15 yr old anorexic quasimodo's. It's possible for them to still look sinister or evil without looking horrible. The clawed hands are a good point though for a necro.

Also, some of the monks look a little too fat for my taste. Kind of like a clean shaven friar tuck running around healing people or something...

My wife plays an elementalist and while she thinks their armor looks good she just wishes there was a bit more creativity in the design of the armor. The NF armor looks basically the same overall with just a few changes here and there. IMO, I don't like the elem armor in Factions. I think the elite (fire,water,earth,air) armors look a little limp wristed if you know what I mean. Pretty much the same with a different jacket pattern. Those specific armors could be really great if someone took the time to really set them apart from each other.

Hmm...that's a tough one. Mine isn't so much profession-wise as campaign-wise. Me, I didn't care for the Factions faces at all. I know it's supposed to be an Asian theme, but Nightfall is supposed to be African-themed and light skin and different eye colors are available. Only brown eyes are available in Factions it seems, plus the squinted eyes makes it hard to see the detail behind the face.
Now don't get me wrong, some of the faces are awesome in Factions but for the most part, I wish there was a bigger variety. Like the female mesmer's faces in Factions are all almost the same.

For armors, again it depends on the type instead of the profession. Don't care for Shing Jea mesmer armor at all, and hate obsidian for the elementalist (at least the female).

Think that about covers it.
