    Hmph. If being a giant means being like you, I choose to remain human.

    I would probably change to elf to try archery but since I don't live in nexon's headquarters, I'm staying human. I like my final hit and crks.

    If my gear changed with me I wouldn't mind trying either race to be completely honest (currently human). However, I wouldn't want to remake my weapons or gear which would be the real setback. I think I would choose giant>elf though.

    Since I know I wouldn't be able to use my gear though I wouldn't want to change to either. Instead, I vote pickle.

    Granted I started when Human was the only race to pick from and there was no choice, I would never change.

    Option A: Sarcasm
    Option B: Take it seriously
    Option C: Doesn't matter, humans still dominant race
    Option D : Respond with Fire and Fury like the world has never seen before.

    I wouldn't change races, but that's just because I've got characters of all three races. It's fun to mix it up and switch gears every once in a while, and each race provides its own perks and challenges. You want a bit of a boost to magic in the early game or to play a warrior with an initial handicap in strength? Play an elf. You want to do really good melee damage early on or play a mage with an initial intelligence handicap? Play a giant. If you want no handicaps, no special advantages, but you do want to dual wield swords? Play a human. And each of my characters has started out with a different talent, I'm growing them in different ways, and I've got different playstyles for each, so it's a really satisfying experience.

    Nope-a-dope-dope. I already have one of each (well two Humans now) race, so I've experienced all sides of the coin.

    Wow, no one gets sarcasm on these forums? I thought people who played the game and thus came to these forums knew that the Giants and Elves hate each other in game lore so they could take a joke. I guess not.

    To be fair, there was this one scumbag from YEARS ago that would never. shut. up. on how great and glorious the Giants were, and how worthless he considered the other races, and I'm honestly glad he's gone. And he was super serious about it too; not an ounce of sarcasm like you were trying to convey. Tried to pass his meaningless opinions off as 'facts'. I mean, I like Giants as much as the next person but he was like one of those bible-thumping ninnies you just want to give one good biff because they don't know when to step off.

    Not only that, as far as the game's come, the little squabble between the two races seems to be all but gone. The NPCs are chill about it; seems like only the players want to remember it. And Maike. I don't like Maike. Only elf NPC with a bug up his bum.

    I'd go from Human to Giant, simply because I've always wanted to main a Giant, but lack the willpower to redo everything I've already ranked. xD

    If giants got FH, or at least all outfits updated so giants could wear them(I have quite a few that are elf, or human only) I'd be tempted to race change my main to a giant as I do find my giant a bit fun, and I like how the giant model looks. But as is nope.

    Hmm maybe they could just update the human model to look better...

    Giants already have Final Stomp and Final Wind Guard now. It's now spammable and it's op as hell.
