Highlander or Elezen

[Garet]

Hi guys with the release of miqote male in 2.0 there has been a big redistribution of racial composition in the game. highlander used to be one of the most used race in 1.0 but ever since 2.0 a lot, including myself, seems to have switched to miqote male etc. Not that many highlander around as i used to see in 1.0. However been thinking of using Fantasia to either make an elezen or highlander. Anyone know if both of these race are under-represented and if elezen still the least represented race even compared to highlander? thanks for any advice

I would vote Highlander if you're going male, Elezen if you're going female.

Highlanders have the best emotes.

The two most common racers are Keepers of the Sun Mi'qote, and Midlander Hyur.

Roegadyn and Elezen are by far the least played.

Roegadyn and Elezen are by far the least played.

Idk if I should but I feel kind of shocked by this. Originally I started as a Miqo'te but then because I knew world transfers would take forever and because I wanted to play on the same server as my cousin I made a new character on his server. I made a Roegadyn and Ive never looked back. I couldnt be more happy with my character and I feel like more people need to give Roes a chance! I just feel like such a badass lol

I like both of them...

Oh I guess I forgot to give you my suggestion when I posted lol

I would say Highlander, to be honest there is nothing I really like about Elezen but that is just my personal preference. I guess based on my enormous Roegadyn you can understand why I would pick Highlander, Ive seen some pretty cool ones out there. And they get awesome beards too!

Highlander.

Because Elezen are gross.

Alright guys thank you all for all your replies. I might go back to being a highlander then. Tried Elezen during start of 2.0 actually. I actually like their posture and the way they swing their weapons (sword, spear, axe etc) but just couldn't get pass some of their too-feminine like gesture, especially the one when you use the inn bed to log out ( i know this might be too OCD lol) thanks again

Guess Skivvy has a good point, highlander for male and elezen for female. Elezen female are actually indeed perfect for it.

Elezen! Highlanders look like neanderthals :\

Highlander females are terrific, IMHO.

I think you should roll a Roe though!
