Yeah I always thought the pacifist thing was an avatar trait, but then I saw korra and I was like "oh. It's just personality. Roku never mentioned being a very spiritual avatar at all, although I'm sure he had to abilities. Korra seems to be like that, but it also seems like the more dire the circumstances get, the closer she is to the spirit world. For example, every time she's knocked out and threatened by Amon, she has glimpses of aangs adult life. Another point is that airbenders make it a habit to meditate, a habit not shared with many avatars. Meditation is not her thing as evidenced in the season premiere when tenzin tries to teach her. I think most avatars just need to find balance within themselves. Aang was sometimes honestly too pacifist and had to be told by Roku to be more aggressive and decisive. What korra needs is a good aang vision to tell her to chill. All in good time.
