Unbalanced racial traits.

[Fearforever]

Actually, I think Hume got the short end of the stick there.

I mean, look at the other races. They excel at something, usually 2 things.

Hume? Just CHR....who cares about CHR? BST to charm anything? BRD to sing songs? CHR has become one of the most useless stats in this game, and that is the ONLY thing Humes are good for.....

Hume doesn't need anything they excel at, they're designed to be in the middle of all other races and they fit in fine.

I think there is a difference between Hume and everyone else.

Tarus with their MP and higher MND/INT makes better mages than Humes.

Elvaan with their higher HP and higher STR makes better DDs than Humes.

Galkas with their higher HP and higher VIT makes better tanks than Humes.

Mithra with their two bigger assets makes them more desirable than Humes....

What do we have that everyone else has? More "balanced" stats? What good does that do to us? There is not a situation where STR and INT are used at the exact same time. Well, maybe BLU, but thats besides the point!

We Humes are mid-roaders. We don't do as much damage as everyone else, we can't survive better than others, we got othing! My BLM has 8 INT merits and it still is 6 INT lower than a taru with the same merits. Probably the same as an Elvaan WAR if I merited STR instead...

I also have 12 mp merits, what good will that do when my WHM's mp is about the same as a taru PLDs mp??? Almost the same HP also! WTF??!?!?!

Actually, Humes are tied with Tarus and Elvaan for highest CHR. Humes have nothing they excel it, and nothing they fail at.

you guys do realize it's more than just HP coming in to play with how much damage a taru takes vs a galka? It's like 10 more VIT on the base stats as well, plus the gear choices taken. Might want to take another look at the stat differences:

I was amuzed about the reference to fell cleave death when sleeps don't come in time. I have a Taru friend that hosts cleaves for us a lot...we never sleep them...Rach just straight tanks them.

This way everyone doesnt look exactly the same with the same capabilitys,

again, why does that even matter?

each race has its own strong points and weakness's and should be used to the playerbases advantage not frowned upon because people can't bother to gear correctly to survive.

why should we give SE more money for this? you say its $1, but then when you compare it to every other mmo where you can have up to 8-10 for free on the same account, then it seems pretty money hungry. Especially if you were to say level all 5 for particular jobs that's an extra $5 a month as well as mules you might have on the side.

Also, even with abyssea, there are still tons of missions/gear/quests/key items that are still important outside of it. If we only look at stuff that's relevant at 90 (remember some of the best atma come from completing things like dynamis lord) then it still takes a very long time.

Thanks for correcting me.

And also proving my point.

WTF ARE WE GOOD AT????

[Neisan_Quetz]

Humes are good at sucking at everything obviously (over a specialist, but you aren't as bad as they are when it comes to what they suck at, so that's a plus I guess?)

[Coldbrand]

Humes are good at nothing, this was available for you to see right at the character creation screen. Anything you can do, we can do better, we can do anything better than you.

[Neisan_Quetz]

No you can't!

Mithra and their 2 "assets" eh? O.O
