How to Balance?[edit]

Can anyone tell me how I should balance this to make it an LA0? (unless it already is... which I doubt)

It's easy.
  • Change the stats to +2 str -2 cha, or +2 dex -2 cha, depending on which you prefer. The second seems to make more sense, as it'll allow priests and mage type characters.
  • Remove the "damaged by and bothered by bright light" thing. That's not in the original lore, at all, is a crappily written mechanic, and makes no damn sense.
  • The frenzy is also weird. Come on, troll mages and priests exist in-game. Change the frenzy to something like when they're under 20% HP they gain a +2 bonus to attack rolls due to being able to attack faster and more furiously. Remove the per-day limit.
  • The regeneration thing is silly. Just change it to Fast Healing 2, or maybe 1 or 2 + 1/5 levels.
  • Throw in some skill bonuses. Survival, and Tumble seem like good choices.
  • One final, minor racial feature is a good idea. I'm not sure what, but make it small. Perhaps a bonus against Mind-Effecting spells and effects, due to their history with bad voodoo witchdoctors? Dragon Child 16:33, 7 June 2009 (MDT)


But that seems like a setup for an LA+1 race... well, I guess I'll make the changes. I'll have the skill bonuses set as Intimidate and Tumble, and isn't the minor racial feature sufficient as the weapon proficiencies?--For Valor 20:58, 7 June 2009 (MDT)
Not really, I don't think, although a second opinion may be nice. And yeah, the weapon proficiencies are a good, I guess. It just seemed sparse, not really weak, just sparse. I was also trying to suggest features that would be useful to blaster-sorcerers, rangers, rogues, warriors, and the other common classes they are in WoW. Dragon Child 21:06, 7 June 2009 (MDT)
So you know World of Warcraft well? Could you help me with Blood Elves and Draenai? I'll send you a PM with what I've got in the ways of ideas as soon as I'm done with editing these other two races...
