Talk:Trox (5e Race)

The race's negative ASIs don't bother me so much as that passive tremorsense. I'm not sure what to think about it, since it technically is not blindsight (but even blindsight should be heavily limited when used for PCs). It's also lacking in the lore department--Yanied (talk) 10:35, 23 February 2021 (MST)

Agreed. I am not super bothered by the passive tremorsense by itself, but since it is combined with darkvision, I feel as if this makes it pretty powerful. It also has a burrowing speed, which can be very overpowered during combat. I agree that it is lacking in lore, and some of the features are also not great (the inability to wear armor or use shields and the 10 + Constitution AC makes their natural armor much worse than similar Natural Armor features, such as that of the Lizardfolk's). I feel as if all their abilities are either overpowered or underpowered. I think maybe the creator of the race used a blend of both to try and make it balanced, but that's not really a good idea. If the overpowered features were nerfed and the underpowered ones were to be buffed, I feel as if this race would be much better. --MarshDASavage (talk) 10:45, 23 February 2021 (MST)

Since this place is open now, I feel the need to mention this page isn’t the variant of anything at this point. It should probably be moved. --SwankyPants (talk) 11:03, 23 February 2021 (MST)

Done. --MarshDASavage (talk) 11:06, 23 February 2021 (MST)
