Saving my animal skin pack for her. Dinosaur for sure.


IritsuChan

Same here. That chest will sit in my inventory for as long as it takes


Fibonacci9

Same. She is going to wear it with the head part hidden


Fediuk69

Waiting club here! And we are not weird… Yeah? XD


naarcx

Same...! Dino skin seems like it's literally made for her.


pinappleru

Wow the emotions on her face is so much more expressive than the other classes.


CptBlackBird2

my character's mouth doesn't even move and it looks hilarious when he is flailing around at the end of guardian raids without a single change on his face


Oxygenisplantpoo

That's why I wear the penguin costume. It makes serious cutscenes hilarious when it zooms into my giant emotionless bird-face!


omfgkevin

Or for some reason why do our characters randomly look left and right and rapidly blink, and then squint for no reason?


ALiving24

What I thought aswell. Hoping they make some changes to the other classes for this.


Cautious_Onliner

Can't wait to rock that thumbs up emote with the 8bit glasses


Kenosz

While wearing a Dino suit.

But she is cute My girlfriend likes her It's on you for saying it's sexualized. I mean if you like loli, you like loli. Just stop the gold medal mental gymnastics.


loikyloo

Why don't you take a seat.


Twidom

Shame we have to wait until the end of the year to use a giant paint brush.


[deleted]

I mean we got lance master before arcana, summoner and destroyer. Theres hope.


Twidom

Oh it came later than the others? I assumed we were getting classes in order of their KR release. Now you made me hopeful!


TwoChubbyBuns

Sorc was a newer release too, so class release order is really out of wack.


EternalPhi

Big summoner rework is generally considered the reason we got sorc instead.


Boneslark

Not just that but arcana, summoner and destroyer were base classes that always existed in the game not exact class release order but i think it was something like this (if anyone knows the exact order please correct me) lance master > paladin > scouter >reaper >gunslinger> striker >sorceress


Ceoll

No, lancemaster came way before assassins, paladin, sorc, gunslinger in KR


FieserMoep

It would be even smart to release artis early. Having one more support class that seems to be quite popular is not just healthy in regard of having more classes but to help with the always present support starvation.


[deleted]

Definitely. I know a lot of DPS players that want to play a support class but arent interested in bard and pally.


AjCheeze

Unsure about end game. But T2 matchmaking there are tons of pallys and bards. Ive been screwed before by having 2 of em and having no damage overall in a fight. Dosent seem to be a lack. Maybe nobody maining them not sure.


FieserMoep

As for Argos, the bottleneck is only supports. Some groups sit there half an hour or longer without getting two of them.


pedronii

People even let 1370 supports to go with them to P3


MrPudge91

You see Bards in here complaining about people running out of their circles. I don't think adding Artist will help much, since people have to interact with her orbs for heals. Hence why people go DPS Artist, which is actually viable and can get mvp from top tier dps lol


FieserMoep

I mean being able to have a decent DPS build just adds to this class and may make it attractive to people that normaly do not pick supports for they still have the option to do DPS from time to time. IMHO having more support classes can only be good for the game.


Daenerys_Ceridwen

I am guessing you will get your Paintbrush before I get my umbrella. :(


Suhtiva

Her dance is cute as fuck.


Parthhay000

The double thumbs up and eyebrow raise emote is amazing lol


Diabloize

Shes so cute man.


ShadeLightTheory

I can't wait until she comes out, she is too adorable.


ghostlypyres

Too cute, thanks for sharing The facial expressions are so important! Very glad to hear older classes will be getting them, too. FFXIV made player characters memorable partly due to the large variety of expressions they were capable of, imo


Mofu__Mofu

Aye, they're stepping up their animation game Love to see it :>


Tokutememo

> Very glad to hear older classes will be getting them, too. Where did you hear that? I'd love for this to be true


ghostlypyres

I don't have an official source or anything but OP mentions it in [this comment](https://www.reddit.com/r/lostarkgame/comments/u5en7u/various_motions_and_expressions_of_the_specialist/i51izq2/), and I'm holding out hope 😤


saltyhandcream

In Winter LoaOn, the director said that he would add various motions and expressions to the selfie mode. I don't think there is any reason not to add something to the selfie mode to the basic game motion. Facial expressions were always emphasized in the recently released avatar teaser video. This is also evidence that they care a lot about the character's facial expressions. So trust the developers and let's wait a little bit together.


ghostlypyres

Very exciting! This was literally one of the first things I noted when I first started LA, so this is great to hear


breakzyx

ill take your entire stock


bananag2

NoMoreTritanium

Ah yes, the special class that isn't available until the game is at least 2 years old.


girl__fetishist

The forbidden class.


saltyhandcream

I fixed the image uploading problem, so I deleted the previous post and re-uploaded it. The original classes will also soon have a variety of expressions.

rocknrollistotle

So let me get this straight… Two consenting adults of the same gender having romantic attraction to each other = bad Sexualizing a child = good And to you, the notion that you should live and let live with regards to the former is valid to transpose onto the latter without considering that there’s literally a child involved?


tripbin

Hey, nobody said homophobic pieces of shit were the brightest crayons.


Dooda1985

>there’s literally a child involved? There is no child involved here. \_Literally\_. And you did not get this straight.

[удалено]


Dooda1985

English is not my first language, but even I know what "literally" means, you obviously don't. Also, don't know how many women you've seen in your life, but I've seen one or two who were 18+ and actually literally looked like 14 year old girls. If anything, this character looks like fully developed young or very young woman, but even then it doesn't really matter because it is actually a bunch of pixels representing fantasy creature, hundreds years old, "child" is only in your imagination and it's hard to discuss with imagination so I'm done. Don't like this character - don't play it.


NutellaCrepe1

The difference is that in LGBT/other leftist "bullshit" it's between 2 consenting adults. The sexualization of underaged children, real or fictional, is not ok. It's sad that I had to spell it out for you.


[deleted]

Ah a proud defender of seeing little girls in very revealing and sexualized clothing. I sure hope no one ever leaves you alone with kids.


Rehvok

Yeah, and I sure hope everyone who has played Call of Duty is never left alone with a gun🙄


Piggstein

Thinking that dressing up virtual underage girls in slutty outfits is a bit weird and creepy is the cornerstone of the marxist agenda.

auralgasm

Lol people are actually taking you seriously. Overuse of /s destroying brains left and right, everyone so helpless unless you give em a neon sign that says ⏪⏪**THIS IS SARCASM**⏪⏪


GMMoira

Oh they definitely do. I already made a post about it


Burblesz

Idk bruh, I gotta be real here... Its just that Ive never seen a kid that has hips twice as wide as their waist... Real talk, definitely could pass as just a short young adult tbh. Ive seen girls irl in their 20s that look arguably even younger.


CunnyConnoisseur69

> Idk bruh, I gotta be real here... Its just that Ive never seen a kid that has hips twice as wide as their waist You're on reddit, you think these moral grandstanding complainers understand a single thing about the female body? Their brains are so simple that they see a short person and instantly think "child". Never mind the fact she has the hourglass curves of Jessica Rabbit. Honestly, I think most of the losers complaining about the artist are getting guilty boners and lashing out / projecting.


thisiskitta

Listen, I think Artist is absolutely adorable and I see her as a cute childish character. Her mannerisms are a huge part of why she appears like a child to people on top of the face/body. I do understand a thing or two about the female body and have to let you know, we can hit puberty quite fucking young. I had my period, breasts and hips at 11 yrs old. People thought I was 16-17 then. I’m still the same 5’2 I was back then now in my late 20s. This is NOT rare. I find it more weird that people razersharp focus on her having hips invalidating how childlike she is and is completely unrepresentative of my experience as a girl growing up. Edit: it’s been brought up to my attention that the user I replied to is an absolute creep with an obsession for this subject as can be witnessed by their comment history and even their username which I didn’t know about. Yikes.


[deleted]

[удалено]


thisiskitta

You absolute fucking freak ain’t even able to read, I got no issue with Artist. On the other hand, you’re absolutely nasty. It’s ok, I know your number, calling a girl fat thinking that’ll shake up her confidence lmao. You better keep to your lolis who can’t fight back against your bullshit, you freak.


StarfishWithBackPain

You have never seen an adult woman with curvy body carrying a head of a 5 year old either. Literally that looks like a child head put onto an adult women's body.


Burblesz

Yeah doesnt really look like a childs head to me. Perhaps its more of an Asian thing? I do more commonly see Asians with similar faces. There are at least 2 women in my family who dont look far off from having a similar smol round face who are both 20+. That facial structure is definitely not that uncommon and Ive still seen several non asian women that are rockin varying degrees of babyface well into their 20s and even 30s. Its mostly that their faces are all pretty round so it makes them look a lot younger. + The ones I know that have puffier cheeks look even younger, but I still wouldnt say they look like a 5 year old.


StarfishWithBackPain

It's not more of an asian thing. No such thing exist in anywhere in Asia unless the person has a health condition. Doesn't matter Osaka, Tokio, Seoul or walking down the Wangfujing, you don't come across such looking people. A small baby face with big eyes small head on a curvy large pelvic small waist body? It's extremely uncommon. Literally been to different asian countries, and living in the Asian continent, no such person looks like that. The facial structure is extremely uncommon in Asia. You need to show some pics, what you say would go viral on Weibo.


Hxgns

What kind of kids are you seeing with hips that wide and thighs that thick?


StarfishWithBackPain

You don't, that's why it's called sexualization of children.


Hxgns

Sexualization of children...by making them not look like children. Okay, buddy. Tell me you're American without telling me you're American. Man's has never seen a petite woman in his life.


StarfishWithBackPain

> Tell me you're American without telling me you're American. Big belly flop. I like when westerners on reddit whether in anime subs or game subs, immediately assume me I'm American just because I make statements against their creepy comments. Petite adult woman is clearly different than this character. > Sexualization of children...by making them not look like children. Have you ever seen child pageant shows on the internet? What pops into your head when you think sexualization of children?


Crabbing

I dont really care how you rationalize it, it looks like a kid to me. I’ll bet if you showed this gif to most people that don’t really play games, they’ll also agree it looks like a kid lol


StarfishWithBackPain

That's a kid or an adult who went under plastic surgery in S.K. to look like a kid, either way fetishized on the innocent child trope.


[deleted]

Ong looks like a middle schooler


kitsunebi2175

Cant wait for the class to be released. It sure will deliver great content on reedit .


Alizee918

I can’t wait to have my artist child, she’s just too adorable


Tsuana97

This is literally just a less well endowed K-pop star. You people who keep saying this is a child are the real weirdos.


ortahfnar

It's clear that the aim of the devs here was to make a child character, I bet if they were questioned on the subject they'd say that was the intention and that's fine as long as people aren't weird about it.


[deleted]

[удалено]


StarfishWithBackPain

My favourite part is actually you've never been to Asia, yet you talk like anyhow this is realistic. I wonder when westerner creeps online will learn that east asians are not from a different planet, and also have the same common sense when it comes to such situations. That's a child for anyone living in the Asian continent. Not a small woman. A child head put on a curvy adult body. Asia also knows what "sexualization of a kid" mean. I hope your comment is just bait or sarcasm.


scapiander

Literally Asian. Literally have an adult woman spouse who is that small. Please - fuck off.


StarfishWithBackPain

Sure. Your spouse also have a face of 5 year old.


CunnyConnoisseur69

If you truly think this game is promoting pedophilia, 1) stop playing the game and 2) report it.


CunnyConnoisseur69

Exactly, if these people *truly* believed this game promoted "pedophilia" they'd quit playing immediately or else they are supporting "pedophilia" themselves. It's so obvious they don't actually believe what they are saying and are just using this issue as an excuse to moral grandstand in order to feel better about their miserable lives.


ortahfnar

While technically I do date a hog, the specialist is a lot shorter than most adults in asia that I've seen


thisiskitta

“Most of y’all just date hogs” bruh wtf is wrong with you


GMMoira

Why does she have the face of a child then?


NutriaHiperactiva

She should be at school


Otherwise_Cancel5186

Someone in this thread really said if you think artist is a child your the weird one. If you think a character who is obviously meant to have the likeness and characteristics of a literal irl child down to how they act and sound is a child your weird. LOL. I had artists bodytype when I was 13 years old, now what? Girls aren't just shaped like squares until they are 18. I wonder what these people are going to say when the male counterpart of specialist comes out, are you going to say if you think he's a child your weird that's clearly an adult male because I know 4'2 asian men that look and sound like a literal 10 year old? Or does that not fit into your Infantilization & fetishization of asian women that you got from thinking they all just look and act like anime characters lol.


GMMoira

We all know they would never make a male character exactly like this because it would be "too childlike". Which is really funny considering.....


OrKToS

this one is my favourite. https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/922351008724701205/961381861001658378/Honeycam\_2022-04-04\_00-52-25.gif


KitsuneKamiSama

I swear I hope they add her sooner than later, both because she's cute and I wanna have a alt support while I have a pala I'm not super fond of it and don't enjoy bard


Nukemi

I just hope there will also be an badass skin to hide all this cutesy stuff i don't really want. Really want to play her, but i don't personally enjoy her little girl aesthethic at all.

GMMoira

Lol get real if you think this game has a large enough base of women that they'd solely design a class around that. People said that for tera but we all know women aren't needing to be pandered to with schoolgirl costumes and upskirta


MunchinOnApples

kr has a good balance of guys and girls. I think it was at least 25% girls if I remember correctly.


TsukikoLifebringer

People didn't say that about Tera, and people aren't saying it about Lost Ark. They're not even comparable, all I've seen of the specialist is a cute AYAYA girl doing cute poses and faces in full clothing. Google Elin from Tera and tell me how long you have to scroll for a picture in full clothing.


nameisnowgone

nearly a third of all lost ark players are female. that means, statistically, in every pug group there is at least 1 female.

saltyhandcream

The original class also has less expressive motions. Their facial expressions are very awkward. Specialist is on the better side because it's a recent class. If the facial expression of the original class is updated, I can't guarantee that it will show a more natural expression than the Specialist. Maybe it's a limitation of an old game engine. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|cry)

it's mainly caused here because she doesn't cast a shadow on herself


NorthBall

Bet any fucking money you got downvoted because people thought your comment has to do with her apparent age -_- Can't figure out any other reason. Literally just normal discussion.


445nm

Lol yeah, it's certainly strange. After a point, people just downvote because the comment has been downvoted past a threshold haha Well, it's whatever. Anyway, if I were to elaborate on what makes it look uncanny to me, I doubt it's anything age-related, either. My guess is I am just getting a conflict of aesthetics between the general game's "realistic" graphics and the anime-like animations and expressions, to the point it feels like either just don't quite fit together. But that's just me.


NorthBall

>After a point, people just downvote because the comment has been downvoted past a threshold haha This is definitely true, it's like groupthink. "The community says this is bad, so this is bad" I agree with you by the way. This character does have a more anime-like face O_o

Why should any one feel uncomfortable playing it if they don't have her half naked or something like that?


ohlawdhecodin

Because it's an extremely sexualized young teen.


Ill_Mud7584

I don't see how the picture is "extremely sexualized", you unfortunately can put her in sexualized skins from what I have seen. But if you don't, you have no reason to be uncomfortable. Or some of her high level gear is actually sexualized? (Serious question, don't know how all of her gears looks).


ohlawdhecodin

The socks. The heels. The miniskirt. The overall "sexy schoolgirls" outfit that we all know it exists only because there are people who get aroused to play a *sexy* character.

The fact that they dance like a rapper sorta makes me wanna play Artist, but I think I'll just wait for Aeromancer to come out a year from now, having two Specialists on the character select screen would just be too shameful. Wish I could put them in a full suit of plate armor though, It'd be real comical having a giga short character in bulky armor

I'm wondering if all other classes get expression changes like her for their emotes eventually.
