Seriously though the subtle plant physics were pretty impressive.

mine is 4.18 when the elemental barely miss you by inches whirling a COW at you.
The earth elemental was overall very impressive, but what caught my eye was the 3:36 Griffon (pet) stooping, flight animation. That was an extra layer along with the shark swimming that I was not expecting!

Annimations are much more important then pixel rates ..
Somehow i get the feeling that GW2's annimations will be among the best we have seen in MMO's.
Best MMO experiences : EQ(PvE), DAoC(PvP), WoW(total package) LOTRO (worldfeel) GW2 (Artstyle and animations and worlddesign) SWTOR (Story immersion) TSW (story) ESO (character advancement)
I am going to have to go generic and say it's a tie between the Arcing Shott from the Warrior and the Churning Earth spell from the Ele.
Actually no, I really REALLY liked the Viper Strike from Ranger...
Yeah that one.

Mine is at 4.47 when a badass looking Charr with a sword is fighting and then outa nowhere it gets like sucked up into a whirlwind and carried off down the battle field and just when it looks like its about to land he gets sucked back into the vacuum. Love it............. but WTF is it? lol
