[Cyndikate 2303]

Those are much better than the last buffs.

[Hydra 515]

First ... Second also the racial buds are better

[Jchizz 115]

... So what are the drawbacks of being a high elf?

 

Also, please don't make it for auto-aging humans only. You're essentially asking me to kill of my character sooner, which I'm not willing to do. Allow the buff for all humans, please.

 

Also also... half-elves, please.

Leatherworker/Lumberjack are meant to be -20% not +20% 

[Ford 1996]

None we're perfect.

 

 

((I like these much more than the previous ones, thanks Sporadic.))

[Minniefox 16]

High elves really feels a bit overpowered, bonus in both alchemy and enchanting. And their weakness is to not being as good in chopping wood and leather..Nah yo?

 

Also awesome job on the auto age for humans, that is awesome and it gives a powerful buff too!

[leave me alone 995]

So Humans don't get any advantage in combat when most of the other races do?

 

Also, I think the profession skills should be based on dwarvern clans as they are extremely diverse.

[Hydra 515]

Also wha happens to a human about 110 with auto age does there char die or something

[Heero 4092]

Isn't there a way to have a custom race such as Golem mask over another race for it's perks?

[E__V__O 2000]

I do not currently like what the high elves have, I do not think they should get a higher magical resistance or mana than any other race. They are not special in that way and that is not how the void, or magic works in any logical sense. 

[Rivk Zavadsky 700]

"+ Companionship: Increased Damage to mobs when near another human"

 

 

 

And to other races, right?

[calculusdesola 1658]

Though these traits are way better, human players are obviously not going to be happy over the fact that their ""combat bonus"" is versus mobs as opposed to other players of other races, whom themselves have straight up PvP-related buffs.  The quantity-damage-multiplying buff makes perfect sense for humans, but why has it been restricted to apply only when fighting mobs?

 

If this is about "Oren having all the numbers", is it really gonna be fair for those small parties of five orcs versus five humans?

[Snoop 365]

Wow. Humans have no buff at all in combat. Amazing.
