1) Sylvari design - I was digging how many options they have in character creation as well as their glow and overall design. Bark, leaves, vines, etc. are all super neat to toy around with! Nice to see a unique MMO race for a change.
2) Asura animations - Everything about them rock. Running animations have plenty of momentum, holding a greatsword looks funny, popping off Cleansing Flame as a guardian makes them float in the air while they spew fire for a few seconds, and evading looks so slick. I LOVE IT.
3) Guardian class - I hated it in BWE1 and 2, but now I tried out Sword/Torch and Greatsword, found it to be my kind of playstyle. Not only can I support people with AOE buffs and clutch shielding from aegis, but I can breath fire which hurts enemies and removes conditions from buddies. Furthermore, I can SET MYSELF ON FIRE AND THEN THROW IT ON ENEMIES. Read that last sentence again. It's like a Paragon + Rituatlist from the first game, it's so freaking cool!









4) That was a lot of smilies just now.
5) Asura/Sylvari lore and art - Really fantastic stuff. I swear, the designs for the areas and gear are amazing. Love them to bits.
6) Vista jump challenges - Neat and challenging. Decent sense of accomplishment when I finally figure them out.
7) Using Evade - Learning to use this properly has made combat so much more exciting. It's like countering an opponent in a fighting game with a crazy super move. So satisfying to evade and then get a few extra strikes in. Makes the Thief class feel super nimble. I begin to watch the enemy more for it's animation instead of damage numbers which in turn make each battle feel much more alive.
