Hyurs are considered to have a higher critical hit rate in Final Fantasy XIV due to their stat distribution, which favors the determination attribute. This higher determination stat boosts their overall damage output and increases their chances of landing critical hits, making them a popular choice for players who focus on dealing as much damage as possible in combat. While every race in the game has its strengths and weaknesses, Hyurs' Critical stat boosts provides them with an added advantage, allowing them to hit their opponents harder and more frequently than other races.
1: No I will never play a human in a fantasy game 2: The ones that make "themselves" with the avatar creator are the second most uninmaginative and unoriginal people on an MMO 3:The most unoriginal are catgirl players SIgned, a catgirl player
I play the most default face 5 middie using hair 8 and I still somehow feel more unique than all these animal people, amazing, it's all in the glam and themes I suppose.
I went through every race when I first started and ended up with Midlander simply because I liked her face the most, to me it's the perfect balance between cute and cool if that makes sense lol. I have contemplated going back to Miqo'te because glams always look cute on them but now that I've finished the MSQ, I'm so attatched to my Midlander and don't wanna say goodbye to her ;_;
Reason why i choose Highlander,It's because i really wanted to play as an ACTUAL Rugged and Mature Protagonist for once in a JRPG. Not a Typical youthful looking dude in his 20s or under,Something which is super common.
I started off as a Max height Highlander without a beard and black long hair Then i choose to add beards and battle scars one expansion at a time and also dyed my hair from grey to white to give emphasize the fact that where my WOL actually grows alongside with the MSQ…Cheesy i know.
Now my WOL is fully rugged,got all battle scars,the Wind Caller Hairstyle haircut from Bozja which is essentially a direct upgrade to my old default haircut and i couldn't be more happier and proud with the race i've chosen.That's how much i love my WOL.
Only dreadful fact i'll have to live with forever unfortunately is that the fact that My Face is permanently associated with Hildibrand and I had to give myself Fake Eye brows to make myself standout amongst other Highlanders.
Yay thighlander justice, I just wanted to be a brash badass self insert with over the top animations so yep, perfect for me. I love that ppl seethe, hate on us, and then covet our curves and hempen underboob. Maybe someday ppl won't be so mean about me wanting to play a jack of all trades with gorgeous facial options and funny animations
I don't fantasia (except to make slight tweaks occasionally), I make endless alts. lol I have been considering a Highlander alt and now I want to make one even more.
I had started out playing as a Hyur, and kept that all the way through the intervening chapters between Stormblood and Shadowbringers. Then I used my one free Fantasia to change to Lalafell. Curse the memes.
I'm getting that itch, the thirst for another fantasia, and I might just go hyur this time, I've been a cat girl, a elf princess, an angry potato, a buff pirate, a lizard, and a bunny boy, I've even walk a mile as a cat MAN, but not once, have I ever been a normal person. Does any have $10 I could borrow, I will erp for money
I’m so in love with my fem highlander it’s insane. Started on free trial and I thank the heavens for that because if i hadn’t I would have been a viera for my main. But I love her so much it’s hard to imagine not having her as my main! She’s got muscles for days but still has the “overgrown toddler” excitement vibes from the emotes and the way I glam her and it’s just such a lovely combo
listen, just gonna put it out there, on the topic of the race exclusive undergarments, the miqo male one is uhhhhhh very nice to look at, just saying (also very envious of the ladies' one, i think my lad would look really good in a halter and i hate that there are no tops like it, but that beside the point)
I literally just fantasia'd to a fem highlander so the timing of this video to is perfect to validate my choice! (I got tired of having an ears and tail mess up my glams.)
Your evideos actually did help me fanta. I was a basic Viera but I just yesterday after binge changed to a Male Row with a bad ass mullet and now my FC is obsessed with me.
Anne was at first a M!Miqo, this was back when I was on trial so my desired Bunboy option wasn't available and… oh god I hated it so much, it just didn't work, didn't sit right with me, when I got the free Fantasia I did not think twice.
I wanted to make a female character, but none of the other races really vibed with me, Miqo are much more cute than pretty, don't get me started on Au'Ra, Roe faces didn't sit right with me and Elezen just kinda existed, so I went with Highlander, who was the more, for lack of a better term, "mommy" of the two options (Note: Anne turned out to be anything but that in personality)
Even then, I didn't really like the character that much, until I learned about the aesthetician and went for a third shot at it. I ditched the butterfly tattoo, went for inner eye makeup instead, I used the face-markings which fit even better than the tattoo had, I gave her lips some more color and ditched the loose hair, taking the Highlander ponytail instead
In that moment, everything just… clicked, and though I've felt tempted at times to make her into a Viera, it never felt right to change her into anything else (Instead I made my Shadowbringer spoilers into not only my Viera boy and girl, but any other race they feel like that day)
I am proud to say I am immune to Fantasia, because despite an occasional haircut and hair color change, I love my Highlander and I wouldn't have her any other way
Yeah. I just remember, back in the days when I was RPing on my catgirl years back. Guy comes up to her, they start talking, etc. etc. My character says something about Cartenau…(SP? I'm sleepy) And this guy… playing a lvl y60 class (Believe that was max at the time.) And he had NO clue what the Calamity was… AT ALL. So, my story-loving bard of a cat had to explain the entire thing to him. And at the end, she told him that her mother, the only family she'd ever had, died on that battlefield when it happened. She's almost in tears at this point.
His response? "Oh, cool." I swear, if a friend hadn't been nearby to stop her, she would have eviscerated him.
You are my favorite YouTuber omg. I watch as many as I can depending on how far I get in the story. Started watching you when I was in ARR now I’m up to endwalker. You’ve motivated me to keep playing many times
My male Hyur is the the most sweetest grimlin child and I love him. He all bright smiles and hugs, then crazy shenanigans if he gets too hyper. Also he’s smol, still taller than most male miqote but him baby boi.
I started as a fem midlander 5 years ago, I am still that same midlander. With a minor novella backstory, and not enough glamour plates, mannequins and Hard drive space for all my fashion and gpose pictures. Also I chose midlander because it was the middle ground of dynamic and elegant emotes. Not as bubbly and free as a miqote or highlander, but not as reserved as a Viera or elezen. Sorta right in the middle of the 2. I've done raen and Viera for a month each, but I always come back to the original!
Male midlanders still, in the hyur video, get almost no mention XD
You know why I personally like my male midlander? They look genuinely look very good in most caster gear. Robes, gambisons, actors, suits all look pretty nice on their slimmer bodies.
But you know what else? Because we lack an ugly playable race. And will probably never get one, it's nice to have an option that's at least not fantasy pretty.
I was going to be disappointed in you if you didn't use a basic joke at least once. Then I thought about it. After all the white haired catgirls and other obsessions playing as hyur is actually pretty unique.
3:55 I looked it up. It's a culture thing to shave the eyebrows off for highlanders.
5:25 Oh gods yes. Was sun catboi all through msq. Got the epic paladin set that Meteor wears in the EW trailer, saw the tail clipping through the cape, and internally screamed. Am currently bunboi but considering huyr for meteor. Yes. YES. Wtb hide tail option. G'raha could do it.
Highlanders. Enough said. It aaaaaaall comes down to that!
i used to be a femlander for the longest before becoming a viera
Finally, my time has come!
lmfao unique my left buttcheek. thats just you edited into those places

this came out two hours after I fanta’d into a miqo
I’m almost convinced to make a midi
I went through every race when I first started and ended up with Midlander simply because I liked her face the most, to me it's the perfect balance between cute and cool if that makes sense lol. I have contemplated going back to Miqo'te because glams always look cute on them but now that I've finished the MSQ, I'm so attatched to my Midlander and don't wanna say goodbye to her ;_;
Started of as a cat girl now I’m a Highlander ain’t going back lol
CAT GIRL FOREVER…. or until the Fantas go on sale again and I want to change for a specific event/holiday.
As a male Highlander with a the bushiest beard the game would give me, I appreciate this video.
Been a hyur since the arr beta only change ive ever done is my hair. Still have the 2 fantas SE give you for the veteran rewards
I used my free fantasia to go from midlander to highlander
Reason why i choose Highlander,It's because i really wanted to play as an ACTUAL Rugged and Mature Protagonist for once in a JRPG.

my WoL is a thighlander cuz i will never get those jizzled abs and thighs irl. I also love muscular and intimidate women
It will never not be hilariously ironic for Miqo'te players to call Hyurs basic
The total lack of self awareness is fantastic, and seeing that hilarity since I started the game, it’s never gotten old and always makes me smile.
As a bearded godlander I feel validated. Thank you.
Ravaioli Lalafelli. I am morally obligated to rule the Lala’s as their Pasta Pope.
The reason why Highlander males don’t have eyebrows is that they shave them off just cause.

Love the series but you didn't convince me to fantasia. But I'm already a miqo so why would I?

Now if only i could look half as good—
Yeah. I just remember, back in the days when I was RPing on my catgirl years back. Guy comes up to her, they start talking, etc. etc. My character says something about Cartenau…(SP? I'm sleepy)

The saddest part is, this series is over bro
I play as a Highlander Hyur so I can cosplay Dante from Devil May Cry.
You are my favorite YouTuber omg. I watch as many as I can depending on how far I get in the story. Started watching you when I was in ARR now I’m up to endwalker. You’ve motivated me to keep playing many times

As male hyur I feel as the world is my brothel
Tell about men playing girls in mmo. Well they say a man knows the best what a man wants…
im a hyur , in armor
resemble me HIGHLY
i validate this video
thank you Avycatte ♥

There is nothing more basic than making a cat girl.
Yes, I am sad to say that I am extremely basic.

my main is human

sad though, now reveled, you are not a catgirl
lol
