Race/Stat attributes

[jeterbot]

Any info released yet as to if race will affect stat attributes? i'm trying to decide which race imma be in 2.0

Race or gender will have very little if any impact on stat attributes.

In FFXIV 1.0 they didn't make much of a difference. I recall in FFXI there was a big difference. I hope in ARR there is no difference so players don't have to choose between race and stats.

I recall there was something said once on this subject, I don't remember what it was. Or I could have been dreaming.

You weren't dreaming as I remember it too. They said something about "bringing it up" to the Devs and Yoshi I believe. I was surprised it wasn't in 1.0. I had mixed feelings about it not being there but I accepted it since XIV is NOT XI and assumed there was a reason behind it. I liked trying though to have a character with bad stats and reworking them; but I like a challenge lol

There were (are as of november final save) Race and Clan differences in XIV's attributes. The problem was XIV's attribute system, is a mess and level correction is pretty much the only thing that matters in the long run it did nothing.

So with ARR there will most likely be Race and Clan differences in stats once again and it's such a minor thing that no one will notice since the only affect that will seen is in the first 10 levels that you blow through speaking with NPCs anyway.

What? stats worked perfectly fine. race bonus wont matter anyway when you put stats where you want. Only thing that was broken was the Dlvl difference on block rates and such which they later fixed.

I get the impression they'd still be popular despite something like that.
