    Racial differences

    Aside from stats/HP/MP differences, are there any hidden effects races get? LS mates swear Elv has a higher DMG cap and Mithras have a huge accuracy boost in comparison aside from the STR and DEX differences. "Only Elv Mnks can do 1500 Asurans while Mithras can't break 1k wearing the same gear and buffs." Since obviously a difference of 8 STR does not = +500 DMG, they're concluding this is the case. They also claim only an Elvaan can do a 2k rampage on Fafnir and a 3k Jin on a UFO. Yes, 3k Jin on a UFO.

    Re: Racial differences

    taru, mithra, and galka can eat certain foods, elvaan gets bonus stats from royal omelette, and galka can solo-open the quicksands weight switches or whatever the deal is there

    the only differences aside from the above are stats

    taru's are also MUCH cuter, which is by far the most important difference. i don't see a cute elvaan thread in the screenshots section!

    What food can taru eat that others can't?

    I know Mithra and Galka have raw meat/fish. (Which you could argue other races CAN eat raw fish with the proper equipment)

    Galka have the ability to call each other 'Nigger' without having GMs on their ass.

    Only tarus can say (in the words of Will Smith): "You know the difference between you and me? I make this look good."

    Tarus are the perfect bite-sized snack for today's busy Galka-on-the-go. Or scoop up a handful for a light but filling lunch. They also make great seats when the ground is muddy, and make a delightful "squish" sound when you sit on them. Tarus are great!

    and by "this" you mean headwear, right? because you can't see anything else on a taru

    Yep.

    1 Galka, 3 taru, or a mixture of 2 elf/mithra/hume open those doors.

    Still no detail! Looks terribly bland and terrible. Death to tarutaru.

    The best part about that post is the avatar fits perfectly with the comment.
