    stats by race

    old topic new thread...


    i would like to see races in 2.0 have slightly different stats. Maybe 1 point +/- every 10 lvls. that is all.

    some people think that they will be judged by stats instead of talent by doing this. I assure you that +5 points and - 5 points will Hadley be grounds for discrimination when stats easily go over 300.
    this would equate to less then a 2% bonus in stats.

    ADD: another option would be to have the guardian you pick affect your stats, each guardian could give you 2 bonus stats. Each stat would go up 1 bonus point ever 10 levels.

    No thanks. I think race choice should be purely aesthetic and have no influence on how the game is played.

    People should be judged on their abilities to play a role, not by what race they are.

    +5 strength at lvl 50 and maybe -5 mind would hardly be problematic. Just a small bonus for people to choose a race that goes best with their favorite job.

    like i said, at lvl 50 a +5 stat bonus and -5 stat wouldn't affect you to were people would say that. thats like saying you only got 42 strength on those gloves, i got 47 gtfo til you have 47. it is irrelevant in ff14

    +/-5 is still enough for people to be judgemental. I like diversity in the jobs I play, I don't want to have to be the same job for every raid I do just because my 'character is better suited' for it.

    no its not,lol. nobody in this game is judging people by +or- 5 stat points. Not sure if you actually play ff14

    As soon as you apply stats from leveling up they are irrelevant. Pointless request is pointless.
