Human: STR:19 INT:19 DEX:19 CON:19 WIS:19 CHARM:19 total:114
Dwarf: STR:21 INT:18 DEX:18 CON:21 WIS:18 CHARM:17 total:113
Elf: STR:18 INT:21 DEX:19 CON:18 WIS:20 CHARM:21 total:117
Gnome: STR:17 INT:21 DEX:20 CON:18 WIS:19 CHARM:18 total:113
Halfling: STR:18 INT:19 DEX:21 CON:18 WIS:18 CHARM:19 total:113
Half-Elf: STR:18 INT:20 DEX:19 CON:19 WIS:19 CHARM:20 total:115
Half-Orc: STR:22 INT:15 DEX:16 CON:22 WIS:14 CHARM:15 total:104
why do orcs get 10 less stat points? do they have some form of bonus I havn't noticed or read of?

Sorry, but it shows that you've been away a long time.. People will post nonsense all over the show. It's a sad fact about the forums now.if you don't have some form of real comment on this don't post?
-waits for some smartarse to comment on this post-
I do get what you're saying about Half-Orcs.. Any idea what a sensible solution may be? 23 con?

I recently trained both a half-orc and a dwarf berserker to 24 (both had max strength, dexterity, and constitution). They gained exp at relatively the same rate, with the dwarf hitting slightly more often but for slightly more damage.
The major difference between the two seemed to be that the half-orc's armor blocked a fairly large number of hits while the dwarf (with no armor) was hit every time.

And your commenting is coming from? Have you actually leveled/played a half-orc ones, don't get me wrong but i thought you just started again. How can you comment whether they get shafted or not when you have no experience with them?if you don't have some form of real comment on this don't post?
Back into the shadows once again...

Also, with my earlier post with 0 imput- all you were doing was whining, giving no suggestion to improvement. Maybe kick the con up one point...?

Currently mages do very little other than scratch the surface of berserkers, with an increasing amount of hp they need much less resistance to magic.
Also due to the fact only mages use intelligence I feel those stats should not be considered on races unable to be mages. Plus most people only use elves and gnomes due to their racial bonuses.

there is a huge difference between 1 point and 10 pointsMaking a judgement on a race solely on their number of total stat points is ridiculous. Humans have 114, while dwarves have 113. I would rather have a dwarf fighter, zerker, cleric, or thief than a human of any said classes. Elves have the highest total stat points, but they certainly aren't the best at every class available to them. Just because they have the lower number doesn't always mean they are the best.

So you're trying to convince people to help shaft a dwarf?actually at this point they shouldn't get any lower stats, if you where to roll a dwarf with maxed str con and gotten all the other stats to the half orcs max(aka a dwarf rolled: 21 15 16 21 14 15) it would be considered a crappy roll and ignored, yet for the possibility to get 22 in stats(which isn't much) half orcs are caped at what most/all would consider horrible stats for any other race
Poker in-game.

I don't see a problem with Half Orcs. I have about 6 half orc's 10 dwarves 2 humans and a half elf. Overall I'm seeing half orcs having hte advantage, not only by having the most hp, but the armor they get more than makes up for their lack of 'stat' points.

they all seem to hit for about the same
if orcs have more strength...shouldn't that statement not occur?
