tarutaru

ekk, you guys relly like this race? it would be so much better if you could choose Moogles instead!

[crono_logical]

I heard one reason people choose this race is due to them being short so you get some interesting camera angles when (nearly) underneath certain other female characters

[Bahamut2000X]

Perverts indeed. That's why you play a elvaan and go near the bottom of hills and zoom. A lot less noticeable....errrrr I mean.....ZOINK! *runs away*

Come now we all know how the advantages of being one are, we can look up mithra skirts right Taredin? Er oops..

Yes... I mean... NO! You sick pervert who would do such a thing!

*sneaks away slowly with a devious look on his face*

[Ouch!]

Don't we all just love the UCS? *grins*

Well, people ALSO choose Tarutarus because they are the best when it comes to any form of magic. So if you're going to be a mage of any sort, (except maybe Red Mages which work for most races) Tarutarus would be the first choice for compatibility.

The camera angles are just a perk.

Actually Tarutaru's only have a higher magic stat then the other races and magic stats only apply more so to black magic. Spirit applies to white magic so tarutaru aren't the best white mages as everyone thinks, Elvaan make the best starting white mage. Tarutaru make better black mages to start.

Actually people choose Tarutarus if they want to master magic. Tarutarus due to their size rely on magic power to help them fight battles. Althought I seen tough little tarutarus as warriors kicking monster butt on livecam from time to time.

Elvaan make the best starting white mage

Yea, but I think they have very little MP in comparison to a Tantaru. I need to take a look at that stat calculator again..

[Bahamut2000X]

True they do have less MP compared to Tarutaru but their white magic related stat (I beleive it's Mind) is higher then a Tarutaru so their white magic will have more of a effect.

I personally intend to create a character with high strength toughness and magic defence just so I can charge around pointing at Tarutaru and yelling "DIE RABBITS" while cutting them down. If they had been more like dwarves or goblins or such then they would be quite a good race, but small pointy eared children? I'm a teenager, I hate children.

I wouldn't even take a Taru to look up skirts, my heart is still with Nuvy Ronso RAWR!

[Lionx]

Well from my stand point i have more MP and the effect isnt important to me since its pretty much of a high effect as it is. The Spirit is also high but even though its not as high its high enough to be good. Plus WHM need ALOT MP, its their lifeline.

[Jeristo]

I never really realized how much of an advantage the tarutaru had in their small size..... such wonderful views...

*drools and tosses away other character designs*

...I suppose their magic abilities are a plus too.....umm....right.

[Lionx]

Well MP is the life of a mage, so Elvaans dont work well as mages with little MP and the effect is easily boosted with a necklace in Windurst(easy quest) for +3MND. More MP is more better than effect.

[Grand Lethal]

*agrees with Lionx*
As a 25 whm, it is way more important to have the extra MP... people look down on WHM's of any race aside form Taru. Saw a Mithra WHM that was 3 levels higher than me, and had 60 mp less! Thats 3 rounds of cure2 and a Paralyze that I'd have over her! and thats at a much lower level! By the time I caught up to the same level, I had close to 100 mp more and that was with Warrior as a sub... if I had BLM as a sub it would be closer to 130 more... that is a MAJOR difference.

*goes back to leveling*
