Generally if you nerf a race you need bring down its waeknesses. If you lower mugwump eq you need lower the weaknesses or compensate. Same for faeling, which are only a complaint because of dps.

Most of the original suggestions are kind of OP, Pack? Sure. Upgrade their kata use? haha no.

For the most part I like the topic direction, continue, I wont add in any thoughts. No one would care.

Not true any monk faeling can do basicly the same thing only with a writhe affliction. steelgrip/kick till dead.

So I take it you didn't read either my post or your own, which was discussing warrior specs? Monks aren't quite warriors, and kata isn't quite one of the Warrior specs.

I skimmed it but dismissed it as bs, and moved on.

So you dismissed your own post as BS.

I guess that says something.

Ya, i know im right.

I take it that this is another post of BS? (Not that I'd actually accuse you of it, but you seem to have accused yourself).

Aww.. I care, tell us what you think.. this IS, of course, what the topic is for.. well, mostly

Orclachs should have a higher intel than Tae'dae.

Or at the very least, make it equal

I agree.

To be honest, ( No offense to those who play these races) I always see Tae'dae as sort of dopey acting, maybe a bit slow in action, if not in mind.

Orclach, I think of as crafty, and a bit slow, more streetsmarts than booksmarts, if you get the idea..

but that's just my humble opinion

Since there would be cries of bias if I touched any race that cant be in Magnagora...

General:
-Allow spec races to get eq and bal bonuses as a result of speccing (ex. faeling is lvl 1 balance. if you go warrior you get another +1, if you go druid you get +1 to eq).
-Make a race balanced to its weakness

Merian:
-Drop Eq speed
-Lower weakness

Viscanti:
-Eq or Bal boost please?
-Lower/Drop Sipping penalty
-Lower taint regen

Orclach:
-Drop resists
-Up int to not be wrack fodder?

Dwarf:
-Lose penalty to eq

Will leave the rest alone

Viscanti also need better charisma. You know, being noble and all. Nothing crazy, a base charisma of 12 or 13 would be good enough, I think.

Aren't they uncharismatic (is that a word?) because so many other races dislike them?

The first two are really the only things I like out of the suggestions for Aslarans, specifically. I didn't really read the others, because I'll never play anything other than Aslaran

The str and dex would be nice, Aslaran warriors are kinda weak, but the tradeoff is speed. I'd really like to have Scent. It's annoying to constantly get asked why I can't Scent (I'm a Tracker).

On the other hand, the dual wielding thing is... meh. It's more of a personal thing, but I've always pictured Aslarans more of a two-hander race. The few other Aslaran warriors I've seen tend to be Blademasters, but I'm not going to even go into how common that spec is. Plus, the Aslarans in the Grey Moors carry spears, with knives as side weapons. If there was a spec for polearms (smiths can make them, but they're pointless unless you have Joust in Riding), I'd say swap the dual wield for that. However, since there isn't one, I'd say swap the chance to hit for any Aslaran wielding a weapon has a greater chance to hit with a physical attack.
