Talk:Reika (3.5e Race)

LA?

What is the LA on this race? It is part of Category:LA0, but also part of Category:ECL1. Which is this, LA0 or ECL1? --Green Dragon 23:07, 5 January 2007 (MST)

Wow.... I look back on this now and laugh. LA0 and ECL1 are correct. --Green Dragon 12:15, 22 April 2007 (MDT)

This needs to be added to LA 0 Races if it is LA0. Please do this, however if you do not I will take it upon myself and add it soon seeing that this was made by an IP. Thanks. --Green Dragon 23:10, 5 January 2007 (MST)

Done. --Green Dragon 12:15, 22 April 2007 (MDT)

Actually I think this should be LA 1 at least. It's WAY too powerful to be LA0 --Gruegirl 21:08, 4 July 2009 (MDT)

At LEAST? At LEAST? If you give it an LA +1, that'll make it underpowered. And yet you say at LEAST. Really, back up your opinion, here, it looks like a perfectly fine LA 0 when you compare to dwarves. Dragon Child 21:34, 4 July 2009 (MDT)

HOW!?!? It has NO Negitive attributes, and MORE positives then Dwarves do. At least dwarves are limited to 20 ft movement. The only thing these guys have are light sensitivity, they're practically on-par with DROW!--Gruegirl 01:55, 8 July 2009 (MDT)

Well the dwarves have extremely good save bonus, +2 to saving throw against spells and spell-like ability is a extremely useful ability. They gain in fact a huge list of benefit often underrated. And -2 Cha don't really hurt a dwarf. Drow are also conisdered underpowered, the only thing making them LA 2 is their damned spell resistance. --Lord Dhazriel 04:18, 8 July 2009 (MDT)

Let's do a comparison. For a melee class...

Dwarf: +1 HP/level, +1 fort, ability to tumble in heavy armor, 60 ft darkvision, stonecunning, +1 damage for two-weapon fighters or sword and shield fighters, +4 against bull rush and trip, +2 saves against poison, +2 saves against spells and spell-like abilities, +1 attack vs orcs and goblins, +4 AC vs giants, -1 to charisma checks and skills

Reika: +1 on strength related checks, +1 damage (MAYBE +2 with a two hander), +1 hit in any area that's not in sunlight, swim 50 feet, blindsense 20 ft, +4 intimidate

Yeah, I'm just not seeing it. Why again is Reika supposed to be so much better than dwarf? It looks the other way around to me. Indeed, it looks like the dwarf has more positives. And the "no negative attribute" argument is pointless. Races are SUPPOSED to be a net positive. Who cares if it achieves a net positive by not having a negative? Dragon Child 04:30, 24 July 2009 (MDT)
