Male Viera as a playable character! show your support

While that may hold some truth, the lifestyle they lead would cause the muscle to be a little more visible on the upper body. Again, compare their arms to a female highlander at max muscle tone. You can still tell a pretty fair difference. Shooting a bow requires more strength than any other weapon we have in XIV, and given that archery is most viable hunting method, even a female would have noticeable muscle on her from hunting.

Their Legs are generally fine, although there was a thread some time back that brought the proportions of the female models legs into question but I digress.

Maybe - if we are talking about male viera who are living out their lives in the wood and constantly on the hunt, but I don't think female viera are doing that level of hunting. They have athletic tone, without it being overly bulky. Highlander is known as a naturally strong race.

Highlanders are noticeably taller and more muscular than Midlanders, with full-grown men reaching towering heights of nigh eighty ilms. Some posit that the impressive Highlander physique is the fruit of countless generations spent residing in harsh, unforgiving mountain climes, where the air is thin and each day a struggle for survival. Though some discount this theory, none can deny that the physical prowess of the Highlanders greatly outstrips that of their Midlander cousins.

They chose a healthy medium between midlander and highlander, we do not have access to a muscle slider, and female viera would logically look more like this than a max slider highlander in the first place.

As I recall, Male and Female Viera live separate entirely save for reproduction, so the females would need to fetch their own food. Thus they would need to hunt as frequently as the males.

Not gonna waste a post, don't have many right now. Female viera live together, male viera live alone and have to do all the hunting themselves.
