Race Popularity?

in TERA PC - General Discussion
I am still downloading the game and am wondering if anyone knows the order of race popularity?

I'm guessing Elin is a clear first. :pleased:

Anyone know where the other races place?

    Don't worry, I know what I will roll for my first 2 characters. I'm just really curious.

    (and as you can tell from my avatar pic, it probably won't be Elin, though it also won't be (elf? - I think that'st what he is))

    Your avatar looks like a human. At least I don't see elf ears there. And elves have softer faces.

    As for popularity, I assume elin, castanic/elf(because of females), popori(because of funny) then humans, amani, baraka.

    But a real popularity count cannot really be made because many players didn't chose their race and gender based on looks. Elin is usually picked because of small target and some animations being better for them in combat. Then there's the obvious race and gender locks of the new classes.

    elins are the most popular, but everybody knows that popori is a true master race :P
  • LettuceIsSweetLettuceIsSweet ✭
    Femani (laughs :p ) hahaha now I get it! yeh. That gonna be my zerker. Will try that first, with my 200 ms ping on Blade and Soul. I figure warrior is out. Better to hit hard a few times slow than a hundred times slow... (wait. does that mathematically work out?)

    Popori have very soft down fur which has lead to the High Elfs over farming them. If it where not for that they would be more popular. Besides that Elin seem to be the most popular due to several different reasons

    -They had two race only classes released compared to Elf/Castanic sharing one and Human being a Tank Class
    -Mini/Maxer look at their Attack Speed bonuses they get in PvP, they auto attack faster there for stagger faster
    -Mini/Maxer look at their extended reach for PvP, their reach goes further than their hit box compared to other races
    -TERA does attract a Kawaii base as well which they love Elins

    regardless of race popularity take it from someone who's played tera for 4 too many years

    i wish i just rolled all amans
    amans are glorious no other race matters

    (unless you pvp then, you know, elin supremacy)

    those race advantages are long gone tho. rn castanic is best race for dps cus of that backcrit.

    and my personal experience would be elin>cast fem>human fem>helf fem>popori>aman male>cast male>elf male>hooman male>baraka
