I just cant get past the Assassin's lame run

[Dukan]

That hunched over, sneaky ninja movement. It doesn't look quite as exaggerated as it was in the World Preview Event, but it's still there. I was hoping they would give the sins a normal forward run and have the sneaky run for sprint type skills.

And the female assassin still looks like a 14 year old. I've been playing one for about an hour. I'm trying to get past the crippled, child assassin appearance and give the profession an honest chance... really, I am.

Alas... it's not happening. Guess she's just not my cup of tea. And her.... dance? Uhm.... what exactly is that?

I had fun with a Ranger/Assassin last BWE. I'm going to try that again. Love the dual weild, love the attack movements, shadow stepping, etc. The character designs are just lacking, IMHO. Oh, well.

Oh how i love the way the assassin runs, it's the best thing about the char, that or the teleporting all over the place. personally i can't get enough, the prospect of playing with another character seems....well...boring now

the Female Assassin has the dance of one of those Inline skaters on the Xbox game "Jet Set Radio Future"

They look Bolemic, small, and gross, Honestly, If Guild wars were like real life, If I was a Small female Assassin, I would run like hell if I saw a warrior with a big hammer chasing after me, one swing and he would break all your ribs and take a part of your spine with him.

Personally If I was a Small female Assassin Id appear in front of him then shove a Dagger into his unprotected throat before he could react...but thats just me...

Oh and I really like the away the Female Assassin looks.

They certianly arent Bolemic...their thin with good figurea and as for gross...well I really dont know where you came up with that...

Assasins who dont run like hell when a warrior comes after them tends to end up very very dead.

I completely agree...

You think that...You havent seen a well played Assassin in action against a Warrior in PvP then?

But then Ive had the same thing said about my N/W just before the Warrior who made the mistake of attacking me drops dead at my feet with my health still at full...

I thought I was the only one who hated the assasin design.
they fixed some armors, but still missing something...
the assasin must inspire FEAR, not laughs (talking about only looks).
well..I think im gonna play a R/A after all.
BTW, they did a good job with the ritualist, at least...

They need to model the assassins like the ones in the video. At the end of the above video shows the way that the assassin should run.
