These are the races that handle the massive restrictions of their cabal most gracefully. It isnt that they are 'more powerful', its that they're less shafted.

"But resistance!" No. Get desensitize and stoneskin like everyone else and you are instantly on par with them for damredux. Do some digging, and you can pull up aura and shield potions. Talk to one of your mage buddies and he can give you haste, invoker shields, or any number of magely buffs.

Rager Arial mace spec? Enlarge for anti-cranial.
Bashspec cloud? Reduce.
Svirf? Use rager vulnerabilities to hamper him.

Bards/immolation/movement sapping abilities completely eat ragers alive.

Why does it feel like every villager now-a-days is svirf, arial, or cloud?	K-B	January 27, 2012 01:31PM
In Which We Discuss Why You are Mistaken:	wrathpuppet	January 28, 2012 03:56AM
Arial warrior is the third most popular combo in the game. (n/t)	DurNominator(VIP)	January 29, 2012 12:43AM
I hate arials. (n/t)	Bendak	January 29, 2012 12:40AM
racist. nt	Isildur(VIP)	January 29, 2012 11:30AM
This doesn't prove me mistaken at all. txt	K-B	January 28, 2012 11:29AM
Well, only two resist lightning items in the game, and ragers can't use one. Not to mention they have no way to resist water.	Sam	January 28, 2012 04:25PM
I disagree...	wrathpuppet	January 28, 2012 11:52AM
So you don't see it as a shortcut?	K-B	January 28, 2012 12:22PM
Ragers are not Masochists	Moligant	January 30, 2012 12:15PM
No, I don't.	wrathpuppet	January 28, 2012 01:59PM
Sorry, just because something has been around with nothing changing for a long time is not a valid argument against change. (n/t)	Artificial	January 28, 2012 06:08PM
Now you're just putting words in my mouth.	wrathpuppet	January 29, 2012 03:57AM
How many of those felar and human were neutral? (n/t)	Artificial	January 28, 2012 04:27AM
11/19 Felar 10/14 Human (n/t)	wrathpuppet	January 28, 2012 04:30AM
Just going by PBFs for all times, we see that there are 25 goods, 176 neutrals, and 90 evil in battle.	Artificial	January 28, 2012 04:39AM
Neutral battle means unless you're a dwarf, no fighting Outlanders, and obviously minimally fighting Fort. Main benefit? No prot v neutral in the game :) NT	Sam	January 28, 2012 04:22PM
On the other hand, Fort mages are more likely to play conservatively against you.	DurNominator(VIP)	January 29, 2012 03:52AM
forgot about the arials...how bout them? (n/t)	Artificial	January 28, 2012 04:33AM
19/29 Arials. Is lame ranking not enough of a downside for neutrals? (n/t)	wrathpuppet	January 28, 2012 04:39AM
Clearly not, because of the significant advantage in fighting nexus and people with protection, imo, with zero downside. (n/t)	Artificial	January 28, 2012 04:40AM
I don't understand what you want.	wrathpuppet	January 28, 2012 04:53AM
I don't understand your argument at all	vortexmagus	January 31, 2012 01:41AM
Does anyone actually argue that ranking as battle is hard? You have 2 of your bros with you. No ones gonna jump you.	Artificial	January 28, 2012 05:00AM
I'm talking about the lack of an XP modifier for neutrals. As for Nexus:	wrathpuppet	January 28, 2012 05:08AM
True, however...	esfergref	January 28, 2012 09:20AM
Why is there always a Fire/Sword in Empire? Because it just works. cookiecutter is a word for a reason. (n/t)	Dirt	January 28, 2012 12:03AM
Fire/Sword Empire isn't a build that removes a significant downside to picking Empire. (n/t)	Artificial	January 28, 2012 12:06AM
Several reasons.	esfergref	January 27, 2012 07:44PM
I agree with you, but the point im making is...	K-B	January 27, 2012 08:01PM
In truth...	Forsooth	January 28, 2012 09:41AM
I'm with you on that one. (n/t)	esfergref	January 27, 2012 08:27PM
Cosign. (n/t)	Artificial	January 27, 2012 08:03PM
I dare you to make a svirf or cloud rager and manage a positive pk ratio.	Jerrokrar	January 27, 2012 05:28PM
I loved my svirf and cloud ragers. Maybe you just need more practice since Boggom was horrible. n/t	jalim	January 28, 2012 03:52AM
Only a delusional serial rager player could believe this:	tongni	January 28, 2012 01:37AM
I was with you until you included Cloud giant in the mix.	Sam	January 28, 2012 11:13AM
Why are you all not including duerg? (n/t)	alansmithee	January 28, 2012 11:15AM
Well, two reasons.	Sam	January 28, 2012 11:43AM
Already done it.	RobDarken	January 28, 2012 12:56AM
The numbers disagree with you, sir. (n/t)	vortexmagus	January 27, 2012 05:32PM
Beat me to it. (n/t)	NbM(VIP)	January 27, 2012 05:33PM
Shifters are gnome, healers are elves, same age-old reasons (n/t)	Noone of significance	January 27, 2012 02:42PM
Classes and Cabals are different to me. nt	K-B	January 27, 2012 03:19PM
Being neutral is one less prep they are fighting against. (n/t)	Frosty	January 27, 2012 02:30PM
Also helps against vanguard, while still giving them the freedom to kill whoever they want. (n/t)	vortexmagus	January 27, 2012 03:43PM
There's an advantage in being able to fly for a Villager these days that did not used to be an issue. (n/t)	wrathpuppet	January 27, 2012 01:54PM
Same 4 chickenshits can't play anything else. It's too hard. (n/t)	TaterPig	January 27, 2012 01:41PM
So your solution to this is that someone else rolls a rager? (n/t)	DurNominator(VIP)	January 27, 2012 09:15PM
Don't get mad at me, I'm just saying the truth, brother. Direct quote "Whaddaya mean, bards don't get bash? Why even make the class available?" (n/t)	TaterPig	January 28, 2012 03:50AM
That's a bit unfair.	satchmo	January 27, 2012 02:58PM
