Tieflings are the best!

There are several combat feats that have an INT requirement (Combat Expertise, Disarm, etc). So no, INT doesn't give you more feats, it just gives you a more choices.

You know what really scares me about this conversation: that lanky and I are on the exact same page. It seems unless we're talking about spellcasters, we think almost alike... scary.

Dwarves are pretty cool, though I'm also a human centric player myself, an extra feat and skill points really allow a huge amount of versatility.

lol Dwarves are overpowered, I never understood the +2 con -2 cha.

For ECL to really be balanced there needs to either
1. Be an exp cap(which is the only option in nwn2)
2. For there to be no level limit really(which is how it is in pnp)

That way when you compare a human wizard, to a drow wizard, you must always compare them as the human is 2 levels higher. Even then drow or tieflings can be argued on still being better. ECL sucks more at the lower levels.

Personally I hate the grinds, I like to see my levels go up. I know in the end I"ll be weaker than that drow wizard. But luckily this in an RP server and in the end I"ll just not pick fights with drow!

Good point but Gregor, my fast becoming favorite RP character already, doesn't have such an option. I have to say it is sometimes tricky to play him, esp. where teiflings are about, but when he works its just awesome and thats what RP is all about in my opinion.

Thats funny cause I've seen more halflings, humans, and dwarves then Tief or Drow.

I have seen an abundance of tieflings and drow. Zadrithurn is sure to give them all a hard time, too.

Drow and Thieflings are -everywhere-. I think I've seen maybe 3 humans so far since the server started.

Female ones aint to bad looking

But drows are the best looking class imo,

However I'll probley also roll a tief depending on what class i feel like playing,

I thought I saw a smurf but it turned out to be just a shorter-than-average Drow.

well i made my rogue a gnome, because gnomes are cool... so hah.

Well so far I've met a total of 2 other Tieflings

Lots of Drow, TONS of Dwarves, a few elves, 4 or 5 half Orc barbarians, and a cool half Orc monk.
Seen a few humans too, bout on a par with the Dwarves overall.

I think also it depends on what time your playing at, different time regions have different players with different playstyles.

I tend to pay a lot of attention to the 'Examine' feature. I've read quite a few of these...many good ones.

I have yet to see a Drow or Teifling where the player bothered to place a description on themself. Coincidence?

Ludovic · Post by **Ludovic** » Sat Nov 18, 2006 4:58 pm

I use it too, and I'm sure you're onto something there but at the same time I'm sure there are some players (small number though) who just didn't want to reveal anything about the character, myself included.

In hindsight, that may have been a mistake but it was nevertheless a conscious decission.
