What's the point in the Friar ones? Who would pick either new race? Both of them have less dex than a Briton, I doubt the 10 extra con on Highlander is going to make people choose it.

After all this time they should just leave some things alone. The class/race combos are there for a reason.

Because the person making these decisions has a low IQ. Dwarf shaman made me laugh tho, no one will take it? higher hp fair enough but lower dex for shears etc etc.. gg mythic. And they claim they have no time to do anything else? they seem to have plenty of time to waste on stupid fucking changes like this no on cares about (except the nightshade one which will piss off alot of existing nightshades) and theres me thinking the remaining daoc staff were intelligent people, clearly I was wrong.

I'd like to to see the reasoning behind these class-range changes, as the only remotely useful ones are celt ns and highlander friar :p

Noone in their right mind should roll the others

Are you out of your freaking mind? Dwarf shaman can only be beaten by troll shadowblade

That 5 extra body and tad more con and less dex makes all the difference I suppose? rather have the cast speed for shears/disease/roots tbh, don't fix what isn't broken... whats next? lurikeen bards/druids/wardens?

Nobody enjoys visuals anymore? :( And lurikeen heroes are even worse choice.

I can see it on my eys already,fat midget sprinting all around and trying to cast stuff.

I can see it, to keep people rerolling and farting about playing and re-equipping stuff. Can't say I like it much tho.

Dunno avalonian friars looking like casters will be annoying in some circumstances.

Celts should have been able to be nightshades from the start, pointless now, unless they allow race respecs.

Hahaha, race respecs! :D

We got stat respecs, but I think asking for race is pushing it

Celt advantages

- 20str and 20con extra starting stat.
- 3%slash 2%crush vs 5%crush on the luri or 2%slash 3%thrust on the elf.

Will have to temp a bit more quickness though.

The str thing is not an advantage over the other realms though with Britons and Norse being able to become assassins (can't remember the racial resists though)

70/70 Norse 2% Crush 3% Slash
60/60 Briton 2% Crush 3% Slash
60/60 Celt 2% Crush 3% Slash

50/50 Saracen 2% Slash 3% Thrust
50/50 Kobold 5% Crush

40/40 Elf 2% Slash 3% Thrust
40/40 Keen 5% Crush

Interestingly, the relative advantage of going from a luri to a celt is the same as going from a kobold to a norse.

actually there's a few more if you run camtest.exe, it shows more:

Lurikeen's, Inconnu's and Kobold's can be Maulers too.

Just waiting for the patch now where players can change the realm their character belongs to.

You know the way the game is going atm they're just copying mmo's you have to pve off like WoW and Everquest, the new races are just added fluff... its sad but true. I just hope they don't get too carried away with the PvE because people will eventually get sick and tired of changing their templates and pveing for the new FOTM heal proc stuff they keep adding and just stop playing.
