- This article is about the species. For the NPC with the same name, see Centaur (NPC).
“Elonian Centaurs not only have equine features, but also resemble the swift gazelles that run across plains and savannahs. These creatures are also more leonine than their distant Tyrian cousins, displaying some of the social behaviors of big cats—a group of Elonian Centaurs is called a “pride.” Their extended families normally prowl and hunt around a pride’s breeding grounds, fighting to defend their territory.
Physiology[edit]
Centaur are a quadpedal humanoid race.
Culture[edit]
Known prides[edit]
Each centaur pride have unique cultures.
- Losaru
- Maguuma centaurs (Harathi)[1]
- Shiverpeak centaurs
- Modniir
- Veldrunner
Religion[edit]
Though succession methods are unknown, Elonian centaurs believe that knowledge is passed down between chieftains through the fruits of the Ancestor Tree.

Notes[edit]
The Guild Wars 2 Wiki has an article on Centaur. |
- Shiverpeak, Maguuma, and Losaru centaurs have 20 additional armor against cold damage, except for the Rangers of the groups. The Rangers have 10 additional armor against cold damage, but also have 30 less armor against earth damage.
- This makes earth damage a good choice against them as the Rangers effectively do not have the standard bonus elemental armor rating vs earth damage and the Warriors have their standard vulnerability to elemental damage.
- While not specifically mentioned in-game, the Maguuma centaurs are referred to as Harathi in Guild Wars 2 and in later interviews.
- The Shiverpeak centaurs do not have an explicitly given name, however they have been seen alongside the Modniir, and share the same character models.
