HERE'S HOW I READ THIS LIST:

CON
      •Warforged: +2 Repair, +1 Constitution
      •Dwarf: +2 Balance, +1 Constitution
      
INT
      •Drow: +2 Search, +1 Intelligence
      •Gnome: +2 Use Magic Device, +1 Intelligence

DEX      
       •Elf: +2 Spot, +1 Dexterity
       •Halfling: +2 Move Silently, +1 Dexterity

CHA      
      •Half-elf: +2 Diplomacy, +1 Charisma
      •Dragonborn: +2 Spellcraft, +1 Charisma
 
STR     
      •Half-orc: +2 Intimidate, +1 Strength

WIS
      •Human: +2 Haggle, +1 Wisdom
      
So there's no way to get +2 Racial PL Wisdom or Strength, but everything else is fine.

Seems like I may need to break down and buy Gnasty, Gnarly Gnomes...

I wouldn't get too excited until you log on and check Sobby, I'm guessing it's 1 point for specific tree, like 3xelf lives gets you 1 point to spend in the elf tree.


That would be really really stupid. That would mean that the most you could have is 1 extra AP in the racial tree...

Agree with jak on how he reads it

Confirmed.  The Racial AP awarded are accumulated. Presently, after 30 Racial Past Lives, you could have 10 to use in whatever Racial tree you currently have.

For those who want to see the Character Bank with the NEW-SUPER-SHINY-AWESOME-ULTRA-MODERN-SHARED-BANK-UI!!

Absolutely disgusting... However! you can now buy a total of an extra 400 slots from the DDO Store, for the amazing LOW-LOW price of just 595 points per 20 slots!

I put up with a lot of shit from these idiots, but if they go through with this without a sort function (name/level, at the very least), I'm done.

And yes, you can have my stuff.  I'll destroy the economy first, and then give away my account.

You are assuming the following of new players:

1)  they understand that you min/max charisma and con and dump the rest.  It took me 3 characters to figure out that DDO doesn't care about more than 2 stats on most builds.  3 at max.

I came to DDO because I played D&D for years.  I knew very well that in D&D only 2 stats mattered, and built my first DDO character (a human cleric) based on that understanding.

I was expecting to be a CoDZilla, and was sad when I discovered that DDO lacked the spells needed for that build to actually exist in the game.

Asheras wrote on Mar 7th, 2017 at 5:07pm:
You just aren't getting it.  You are too stuck in your own personal frame of reference.

Probably, but then again it is the only one I have, so... 

Asheras wrote on Mar 7th, 2017 at 5:07pm:
You don't care about defenses because you are fast.  Because nothing hits you.  You kill it before it gets a hit in.  You dodge or time traps.  You use geometry and obstacles.  None of that is happening with the first timer.

That's handy, because none of that shit matters in Korthos.  And no, a cleric does not kill things before it gets a hit in.  That's why I said try to complete the optionals in Heyton's Rest on a "very strong" solo cleric, because it isn't happening.

Asheras wrote on Mar 7th, 2017 at 5:07pm:
Newsflash:  first timers die.  A lot.  even with a "good" solo build.  You may not die an entire TR from 1-20.  Not once.  I'd say I average less than 3 deaths per life (before reaper mode).  Most brand new players die more times just getting flagged for The collaborator.  On normal.  Yes.  People die on normal.

I did not die in Korthos.  That's not a brag, just a fact.  I started ftp and ran all quests 3 times n/h/e thinking that there would be better loots at the higher difficulty levels that I could not open up until I ran the quests on n/h first.  I was again proven to be wrong and was again sad.

How this shit works?

you do a racial incarnation at 20 and go back to lvl 1 with all the shit in your inventory?

You do an ER at 30 go back to lvl 20 with all the shit in your inventory?  How this shit works?

Just noticed this:

Quote:
Legendary Dreadnought's Action Boosts should not fail as often when activating several things rapidly.


How low is the bar when you strive only to "not fail as often?"  And it's not even "will" not fail as often, but only "should" not fail as often.  Fucksticks!

That's just defensive coding/RFC lingo.  Don't take it to heart.

As I read the release notes it's either TR or racial reincarnation. That'd mean you get booted to korthos with 2 less inventory pages and two less bank pages... That might cause a couple of problems (not to mention super cluttered inventory if they require you to empty the TR cache which I wouldn't put past them.

I'm predicting the DDOstore will soon stock a true heart of bloodwood. Get both the benefits from a racial reincarnation and true reincarnation for only 2.500 TP.

10 racial is really powerful. The best benefits are for AA users. Leaving the build with 76 APP to spend on class trees. DC casters and melee grab stat points a bit easier. Bladeforged get to recon easier.

As always, i enjoy seeing the new ways that the devs kick themselves in the balls every update more than i enjoy playing the game.

We want searchable sortable tr cache = bank revamp.

RR bonuses look nice. 10 AP is YUGE. Costing epic tokens is very nice.

I checked out Lam for a bit. RR does NOT force you to empty the TR cache. It DOES lower your inventory space by resetting your favor, this doesn't prevent you from RRing, the items just go into overflow, as when you ER without enough room for your equipped gear to be unequipped. I forgot to check the bank and see if the reduced pages had any weird effect.

Looking at Dragonborn. +Str and Cha seems like Pally bait. Some decent melee racial enhancements too. Unfortunately, they can't take Silvanus as a deity, so will never be preferable for that over PDK. (unless they make an iconic version that is both FR based and not locked into a different deity.) There's also a lot of spellcasting enhancements though. Shiradis and fiend/goo warlocks can make use of the +spellpower and +CL/maxCL. Evocation specced DC casters will love Dragonborn, with the +3 DC in tier 4. There's arcanum for +spell pen as well. Wings are nice for any class of course. Breath weapon looks cool, but I don't know how effective it will be outside of a max spellpower build.

Best idea from the devs ever to eliminate the TR Cache for RR.
Try to leave Korthos with an overfloating inventory when you have to pick an item  Wink
