Personal part : Assassins are prety high but...
Male warrior : I mean seriously, I've seen clowns and (real) retarded people (sorry if anyone here doesn't like the word) who looked smarter than a fully armored warrior. Seriously!
Dervish : they all look alike (and that's when they don't use a form), you can never EVER see their faces, scythe animation get on my nerves (more than spear) and even monks have a better sense of humor (can you stand 2 sec without boying your head?).

QFT and completely false at the same time. They look good if you want those kind of character : pirate, undead, scarface and other "extreme" character. If you're only interested in classical fantasy hero (/raise hand), avoid nightfall.

Female Assassins just give me the feeling that makes me want to beat the shit out of them. I mean, look how stupid they look when they wear their masks:

Looks like a god damn machine or someshit. What the hell?

Oh, and female paragons. They sound like they are having an orgasm when they die, rofl, my favorite.

While I can't speak for everyone with a female sin, I have mine wearing her mask because I didn't see any good faces, so I just went with one that didn't look absolutely fugly. Compare:

The face just looks retarded, IMO.

Anyhow, my vote goes for male paragons (Plated lingerie actually LOOKS aesthetically pleasing on females, not the case on males O.O) and male mesmers (have to agree on the Renaissance-fair-look comment).

I don't quite understand why some people decry "anorexic" female assassins, yet cling to female characters that are almost as thin as assassins, yet somehow manage to be big breasted bimbos. *coughElementalistcough* Implants on your characters? Bleh.

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.

I agree completely about female Paragons and lack of variety on their outfits. This is the reason I made my main a male Para - all female armors look pretty much the same - belly uncovered, mink skirt, bikini top. Very boring although some are good looking. I can understand the hate male Paragons get due to wearing skirts, but what can I say? I love to be a bit different.

You answered your own question perfectly in the OP. Nothing really needed to be said after that because that is the absolute truth, and if anyone says anything else, they are wrong.

There is one face from the proph selection I like, and it only looks good with the mask covering the mouth. The other faces are just looked retarded. (i.e. fat face, the last one) And for canthan faces, there is only once face I like, the other are meh, and there is NOTHING I like about NF rangers. Nothing.

Male Dervishes, all male monks, and male warriors.

I want pants for the Dervish male. I don't want to wear a dress. Female elementalists finally got pants, it's their turn. But they're a boring class anyway.

Male: Paragons, they just seem like a bunch of poofs to me. Assassins, they have even uglier armour.
Female: Assassins, same as with male.

They should have added some assassin armour like they wear in the bonus mission.

For the people hating on assassin' faces, they have masks for a reason ^_^.

But some rather look retarded like female rits...Proph Male wars look like hulking pieces of retardism walking around imo(wear a helmet covering the face please D

. Btw the people crying anorexic female assassins, I want to remind you of a 15k glads female warrior/15 druids female ranger,eles in general. Those two have super thin waists but most of the other armor make up for it with bulk, the elementalist must have back problems from how huge their breasts are (srsly). Assassins are supposed to be sleek and stealthy, muscle mass or mass in general shouldn't be there but you should still be "built". That's not to say their faces aren't pretty fugly...thats why we have masks

. I also dislike the male necro's posture, stand up straight before I beat you with a ruler.

You're welcome for block of text o_O.

WOW... No offense but since you will take offense to this anyway I'm just gonna say it, it looks like a transvestite emo pondering it's(?) sexuality. I honestly thought it was a female until i re-read "He's". Like i said no offense intended if thats your taste, but it kinda hurts my inner child to have seen that. I'm not sure I'll ever fully recover. Gonna have to cast my vote for this necro.

assasins, both sexes are just pencils.
male warriors--need I say more
I had issues with the female monks of tyria mostly because of the starwars bun look---but the boys arent much better.
I have to agree about the female faces for the rits---mine has the bucky beaver look---but hey she's a califonia valleygirl....it fits her to a T.

the male necros got shafted too....I made one in cantha who is ok...hate the hair but the face is ok, the body--horrible (I included his screenie so you can see he is ok).
Rangers (f) in elona have great hair, but didnt like any of the faces....

so on a list of males and female :sins
males: all warrior and most necros most monks
females....most of the elonian females with rare exceptions.

I seriously wish the necro faces in general didn't look like they were going to bite people's heads off and eat babies raw. Yeah, there are exceptions, but still. The male necro's posture also keeps making me go '...ow, he must have some BAD back problems'.

Also:

What's so bad about this?

Yeah, they're really skinny, bordering on anorexic... on the other hand, eles have unbelievable proportions, too.

And as for Tyrian female monks:

Could've been worded better that's for sure... and I'm pretty sure the bolded part is a bit stretched. If your inner child is hurt by a character... there's a problem. It's obviously male. I chose pink for the armor 'cause of his hair color and reall, the hairstyle isn't THAT emo. Check Factions necros.

I'm not offended (lol, why would I get offended, you're not the one playing the character so I don't care too much) but I disagree on those points.

I do agree that beauty is in the eye of the beholder though. I know most guys will reply that if they play a game for long hours, they'd rather look at something they find attractive, thus the skimpy female eles and boob-focus... that I personally can't stand. But hey. I'm not the one playing the character so I don't care.

Paragons in general are pretty bad just because NONE of thier armor is truely "distinct."

Male necros however... ugh.

And by the way, assassins are not "anorestic," just because a girl doesn't have DDDs doesn't mean they are too thin.

Don't care about breast size, never did... it's the height/weight ratio. They have skinny arms and legs. I know they're supposed to be assassins, thus stealthy, thus slim, but they don't even look healthy. Even male necros have some sort of muscles and female eles have curves. Female assassins show none of that, thus why I keep referring to them as "stick figures".

I've been filing that under "Oh well, it's just a game art thing," else I'd never be able to figure out how female eles manage to run around so much without getting a backache.

Sorry but... /puke. It looks like her knees are about to snap....

Also, male monks typically look like crap although I have seen some that manage not to look like idiots. Male ele's couldn't hold a martial weapon properly if their life depended on it. Seriously... they hold them just wrong.. looks stupid (the same thing could be said about male monks).

My female rit gets hit on all the time by horny boys that think there's a small chance she is actually played by a girl.

Put elite lux armor on a female rit and, trust me, they won't remember the face.

Someone said female dervs are ugly... dude, if you know what you're doing on the creation screen, they can be the prettiest ladies in nightfall.

Now for fuglie... both male and female necro armors.. not so much the bodies and faces.. but the armors.. all horrible.. which i guess fits the profession.

Personally, I think both of the NF classes could have done with more choices for armour. Yes, all armours of a given class reflect the flavour of the class - but other professions manage to have a fairly good range of themes within that flavour, while Paragon and Dervish armours are all basically the same design with different ornamentations, apart from female Dervishes and male Paragons having the choice of having a bare midriff or not.

Ok Kusansaa, you probably have the nicest(only) looking necro I've seen in 2 years of GW gaming. (though the best ones are still D2's necro in gothic armor)

(The females are quite sweet though. Some shitty hair and faces also - but as a general rule - I'd say they look pretty darn good.)

Nightfall characters are a bit of a problem. You have some cute ones (paragons, dervishes, some female characters) and then on the other side you have the male necro or the male warrior.

Now the class that I refuse to play and it's because of it's features - is the dervish. They look quite decent, and have some sweet armor - but I HATE the scythe. I HATE the skill activation animations.
That's the most unappealing thing in the game right now.

I mean, its just spikes, spikes and more spikes... half the time I /sit with my sin there's something waiting to stab into his rear end... you'd think an assassin would wear something that's more suitable to.. you know, stalking and hiding, instead of something that just SCREAMS look at me I'm out to stab someone with these hundreds of spikes coming out of me.... and chances are that someone would be myself.. by accident >_>;;

Ritualist is the worst, because FoW looks as though someone took a big shit all over some guy or girl, and that they decided not to clean it off for some reason.
