Yeah, that race would kick ass.

Basically it would make humans obsolete for everything but dex builds, and would make for an especially insane AP.

There are no real down sides to this race.. the dex and wis is still high compared to other str-based races. The con is pretty average (lower than giants, but about middle of the road overall). So.. it's basically all upside, no "bad" stats that you have to compensate for (below 18 wis races only get 2 pracs per lvl, below 17 int races have to spend 3 pracs to get to 75%, for example)

By comparison, look at a minotaur (which is kinda what you're going for.. only with high wis instead of int)
Max Stats: 23str, 16int, 22wis, 19dex, 21con, 11chr

They're already a very strong race statwise, but that's alleviated by how rare they are. PLUS they have very low int (and charisma.. cause that matters). Considering int is a bigger factor for most (all?) classes than wis, you'll need to have a downside at least equal to a mino's if not worse, to be balanced.

I'd kinda thought of these with my super limited knowledge, but...

A bit of tweaking.

Bendak February 08, 2013 08:40AM

I like this a LOT

MudDud February 08, 2013 02:49AM

Morloch from "Mordor: Depths of Dejenol" would be perfect for what you want iirc. (n/t)

Matrik February 07, 2013 07:24PM

one of my favorite games of all time, wondered if anyone else had it (n/t)

Zheeser February 08, 2013 09:21AM

Yep! It's pretty incredible even compared to modern games.

Matrik February 08, 2013 09:53AM

Mort and I went for the other racial hole, high con + int with the luminars design.

DurNominator(VIP) February 07, 2013 07:08PM

Here are possibilities:

Bendak February 07, 2013 05:49PM

So...a few clarifications...

Here's what I could see.

Jerrokrar February 07, 2013 01:13PM

One additional: Have super low charisma to offset any slight imbalances in stat total.

Jerrokrar February 07, 2013 01:14PM

Also give them a really low luck stat.

RobDarken February 07, 2013 01:31PM

High morale helps skill increases. It's how I master flurry on fire giants in sub 30 hours. n/t

Jerrokrar February 07, 2013 05:38PM

Make sure they have the opportunity to learn 'improved flee' too. n/t

Academy weapon is always a tiny iron dagger. (n/t)

leaf February 07, 2013 02:01PM

I seriously haven't seen that on the mob in years because of this meme (n/t)

valkenar February 07, 2013 03:02PM

I don't even know the mob, have never used the weapon or even seen it in the game. (n/t)

leaf February 07, 2013 03:56PM

Yeah, that race would kick ass.

Java February 07, 2013 01:11PM

No one goes Human for dex builds anyway.

Kez February 07, 2013 01:27PM

Too good for ap nt

daurwyn(VIP) February 07, 2013 12:54PM

So, a human? (n/t)

qurdind February 07, 2013 12:44PM

17 max wis. And 16 max dex (n/t)
