Why would you gear more for one thing than another when considering your race when, at 75 for Christ's sake, the differences between the strongest and weakest races is 8 STR or 8 DEX, being 4 Attack or 4 Accuracy, respectively.

As Weeee said, you gear your character the best you can, regardless of the race. Let race idiosyncrasies be bonuses to your build, rather than crutches. "I'm an Elvaan, so I don't need to eat meat." "I'm a Mithra, so Sniper's are wasted on me."

Really, bonuses from gear are going to far outweigh race bonuses more than you can imagine, so you really shouldn't let your race affect your gear/food choices.
