If there's enough customization, then changing races or merits wouldn't be needed. You're suggesting blanding the races so that players can do better with a race choice that doesn't match the jobs they want to play. That's not logical and that's not how MMOs work.

We're agreeing that everyone needs more HP but you're saying that Taru having less HP naturally makes them more likely to get one-shotted... well thats part of the race. Less HP but more MP. The HP argument (or STR/VIT/insert stat here) argument isn't about one race out-sucking another. Those are not taru-only problems. And since they need to be adjusted over-all, there's no real need to go vanilla on race differences.

This isn't a cop out if you actually take the time to look beyond the "I want more STR but maxed it out on gear" argument, which is the real argument that no one wants to admit to.
