I have narrowed it down to these races below, mostly due to the animations. I don't care about hitbox size or racials so that only leaves end game gear. From the links below, which ones do you like the best. (please no trolling)
High Elf Male

Velika: City of Wheels: Among the mortal races, the humans were the only one that never built cities or great empires; a curse laid upon them by their creator, Gidd, forced them to wander as nomads for twenty centuries...

It's all a matter of preference.
I had preordered and played a few betas, I made a female castanic. Just the game itself wasn't thrilling IMO, but the character was awesome.
CURRENTLY PLAYING |GW2|
PLAYED UO:SWG:EQ2:GW:WoW:CoH:Lotro:AoC:Vanguard:Horizons:RIFT:swtor:Shadowbane and I'm sure a few others
WATCHING:EQ Next : Wildstar:Archage :WoD
WISHING FOR: A UO Remake
HAPPILY PLAYING ONLINE SINCE 97.
Personally I'd go with the human male...the other races males are a bit effeminate looking for my style. Plus (and I know you said it doesn't matter) they have nice racial abilities for PvP.
Plus, it's been your avatar for so long it'd be a shame to change it now hehe
Just not worth my time anymore.
I'm thinking the androgenous Asian looking one.
Oh wait, that's all of them!
(go human)
my biased opinion.. Castanic
They are the best looking IMO
high elf females probably have the best looking leather. there animations are awesome too for warriors. thogh im biased, thats my warrior choice
Yeah true that. But I was plaining on making my lancer a human but I could always change that to Amani because their plate is boss. So maybe I'll go......
Human Male....Warrior (main)
Amani Male......Lance
Highelf Female.....Zerker
Castanic Female.....Slayer

i like the Male Elf. they look very cool. and no i don't think they look femenine at all. if you think high elfs look femenine, you would think the majority of men around the early 60th, 70th were femenine too. since most men around that time were more natural looking, lean, they had long hair. and wore tight pants.
and muscles are very overated.
most girls don't find bodybuilders attractive!p
Thank God, now I can stop going to the damn gym!
well nothing bad with keeping yourself in shape!p as long you stay healthy and feel good about yourself, there are many ways to do that without paying money each month in a gym.
i think Swimmers, got the best looking bodies. my opinion though!p
i like jogging , combined with some Yoga. along with aerobics. wich you can do at home.
high elf males, and castanic males i think look best in those armor sets.
I couldn't do swimming. Just not a natural swimmer, I guess. I get my workouts from 12 miles a week of HIIT on the treadmill and 4 days of lifting. This is the only reason I can play MMOs and not feel like a lazy bum. Haha.
Anyway, back to the topic, oddly enough, I tend to like to play the goofy looking races in most MMOs for amusement. I was a gnome warrior tank in WoW, and I'd probably play a Popori when I roll a warrior. Nothing more awesome than a duel-wielding Furry of Death.
I'd go along with this ^
Especially as a warrior, out of the 3 you mentioned humans would look the most badass. For me, personally, I preferred the Aman, but that's just me.
Also, the human probably has the 2nd best PvP trait out of those 3, only 2nded to the Castanic
i love the poporis as well!p hubby 's character is a Racoon Lancer. hilarious the way they ride the horse.
the high elves in Tera fit perfectly the idea i have of elfs in general. both males and females, well females got way too much chest!p so they surely make me envious!p lol
but when i see a male high elf, i can easy picture a legolas, or a drizzt. not all of the face presets for male elf look youthful, child like.
they reflect agility, grace, and elegance.
human males, fit perfectly the warrior, tank stereotype perfectly well. their armor sets, do that as well.
Amans look cool in basically every armor set. but same as the humans, i see them more fitting more for the warrior, tanking roles.
High elf male for sure!
The only races that I find aesthetically tolerable are the Aman and male Humans. The other races are painfully pervy IMO. I'm no prude, but some of that shit is just so blatantly aimed at horny men that it's sad. I hate to open a can of worms, but Elins... really? I feel like I should name my male human Chris Hansen and make a guild called Why Don't You Have a Seat.
All of the gear looks awesome on male humans though. I know you said you don't care about racials, but on top of looking like total BAMFs in every armor type, they do have amazing racials.
edit: Actually the HE Male stuff looks pretty decent as well.
only races that normally tend to show alot of skin when it comes to their armor sets, are Castanics. im glad males show their abs, about time they give us , girl gamers some eye candy too lol
i love the rest of armor set looks, for the other races. there seems to be alot of variety, so there is plenty to choose from.
Tera is a high Fantasy based world. so realism woulden't make much sense. if they wanted to make a more realistic medieval dark ages world, i assure you , every female character would be dressed like nuns, and their playable classes, would be chef, baker, or housewife.
Elins are the only race in the game, i would never consider playing. i managed to make a decent one once i was testing the character creation though. most of them tend to look like cute little dolls. with creepy glossy eyes.
End game armor for Elf male does look good but the problem is the lower tier'd stuff looks like crap....god those boots.

Poporis ftw!!!!
I'm going HE male for my warrior and the thread showing Mr. "Pink Panther" gave me doo reason to keep a few old gear sets just in case. The Gold/Black leather you get around level 16-17 is pretty nice though.
Just not worth my time anymore.
But dam the highelf female looks tempting, I really like the 3rd set but knowing my luck it's probably crafted leather and that might be out of my reach.
