I don't understand why Faelings couldn't be a specialization race. The guild tutor of Hartstone is a faeling.. a really cute faeling...

All faelings are cute especially Nyla with his fangs! I think only faeling should be able to hold the High Priest position in Moondancers.

Every city has one specialization race. Anyway, a Faeling Warrior specialization would make little sense. They just aren't cut out for that sort of thing.

Anyway, the race that needs an upgrade is Tae'dae. Not that they need any more added, exactly, but that experience loss has to be decreased. Hell, even Olan is considering reincarnating because of it, then it will just be Me and Daganev sad.gif

Oh, and a few Serenguard Tae'dae and annoying Paladins, but they don't count cool.gif

Agreed. Experience losses like that must be like wearing a permanent disfavour. I sympathize.

You think Faelings have it bad, try bashing as a Lucidian when 90% of mobs do +3 more damage to you.

Give faeling the ability to flutter their wings and transfix people with.. the pretty.. colours.. *drools* For 5 seconds balance

Take poison gas from Viscanti and give us a level 1 sip penalty instead.

Oh, and I have a faeling warrior alt: As soon as I find some steel toothpicks for swords, I'll start playing as him.
Hazar2005-02-16 07:50:10
As much as I plugged for Trill, with their horribly average stats, the Orclach need more. Level three weakness to fire? crying.gif

Their regen is useful as a novice, though,
Ceres2005-02-16 16:06:49
The reason Faeling aren't given a special status is because there are almost as many of them as Elfen.

They're crap to try and keep the population in check, but it doesn't work because people go: "Oooh, Fairy!!" and want to be one.
Richter2005-02-16 16:10:09
Humans need -something-. We're Estarra's chosen race. happy.gif

I want a level 50 ability or something, something that sets us apart. Right now, humans are just seen as a "bashing race", because of the lv 1 exp bonus.
Auseklis2005-02-16 17:09:18
I can't imagine humans changing.

I'm a big krokani fan, and it does sadden me that there are so few around.
Shiri2005-02-16 17:10:17
And hey, Furrikini are sons of the beard of Auseklis, we should get some sort of bonus for that an' all. sleep.gif
Unknown2005-02-16 17:12:17
I'd like to make a Krokani alt, because they are so rare to see, I think it would open up a lot of RP avenues to explore, just don't know that I want to shove my others to the back burner.
Ialie2005-02-16 18:17:48
There aren't really as many faelings as you think. Certaintly not near as many as elfen.
Desdemona2005-02-16 19:03:32
Faelings are a crossbread between fae and elfen, probably something that happened during the time the fae started travelling into the physical plane in the first time. So, you should expect faelings to be numerous in any forestal commune... At the very least Glomdoring!

Faelings will get an stat specialization change when Dark Druidry comes around biggrin.gif Speaking of Orclach, I believe that involving an Orclach in any "nature" way and giving them a positive alteration is completely out of the picture. Orclach are most knight oriented, with the relative Mage/Guardian exception (Urlach and Urlach wannabes).

Speaking of Orclach... they are top of the poll, right now.
Amphitrite2005-02-16 20:37:38
Elfen, because they have too little con.

Shiri2005-02-16 20:39:17
*PEER Amphitrite* No way do Elfen/Viscanti/Merian need upgrades. They are the -best- races. (Maybe Dracnari too.)

EDIT: Wait...nevermind, you were being ironic. tongue.gif
Desdemona2005-02-16 20:40:43
Yeah, I also consider Dracnari as probably the best race out there. Elfen/Merian/Viscanti already have very nice stats and advantages... their specialization change just makes them better.

Edit: Do you think Dracnari merit an specialization change whenever Gaudiguch arrives, or do you think their stats are already good as is?
Shiri2005-02-16 20:52:15
They merit the change, but only to encourage more Gaudiguchi to be them. Maybe it would be less of a stat change and more of a..."get regeneration in Vortex" stuff. Or something. 0_o
Ceres2005-02-16 22:06:36
They get regen in volcanic. Have we seen volcanic? No.

Therefore, Pyromancer's demesnes with be volcanic.
Richter2005-02-16 22:10:32
Yes... with be.

And I hate that I'm a human, and everyone goes, "omg, joo just wanna bash bonuz, dont ya?!?!."

Shaddup.

Well, they'd be right, I did want the exp bonus, but I created some huge RP around it. Just that you guys have only seen part of it so far. *hangs head in shame*

Aslaran Richter comes at level 80! Upgrade Aslaran!

Really, all those have going for them is the speed bonus. But, I suppose we can't make every race amazing.
