Concerning paid makeover: Assassin getting a warrior look? - Guild Wars Forums

omedon666 · Feb 16, 2012, 08:00 PM // 20:00

Hey all, I just got finished reading the wiki on this subject, and it's not *quite* clear enough for me to spend money finding out if I'm wrong, so I thought I'd ask here:

My main class is sin. I'd rather look like a prophecies warrior type. Is this do-able with the paid makeover? Come to think of it, I'd even take a factions warrior. I'd just like to ditch the scrawny body hehe.

Thank you in advance for any helpful replies

No, it's not possible. Body types are fixed to the characters primary profession, just like armor arts.

No, makeovers are limited to profession-specific appearances. You can mix, for example on a mesmer, Prophecies mesmer face with Factions mesmer hair and Nightfall mesmer skin. But in your case, since Assassins are only available in Factions, you're limited to Factions Assassin looks.

The only use of the makeover to campaign-specific professions (assassin, ritualist, paragon, dervish) is to change gender (extreme makeover) or re-pick from the appearance choices that were originally available to them at character creation.

(When they first released the makeover kits, I was hoping we'd be able to mix profession looks, too. Was disappointed to find out it's not possible.)

Ninja'd! Blast my slow typing on this new layout!

If you want to look bulkier, you could always buy a costume. I felt the same way about my female assassin, and she looks a lot better now with the shining blade uniform.

Got the Grenth outfit for that very reason

Great minds think alike!
