a) Dwarf: 21 18 18 21 18 17 bonus's as a fighter = ? negatives =?
Human: 19 19 19 19 19 19 bonus's as a fighter = ? negatives =?
c) Halfling: 18 19 21 18 18 19 bonus's as a fighter = ? negatives =?

vs

D) Half-Orc: 22 15 16 22 14 15 bonus's as a fighter = ? negatives =?

What real differances do H/orcs have over the other races ?

Seeing as they can only be fighter's or Zerk's so therefore you'ld think their bonus's would be more obvious and make them the preffered race for fighters and Zerk's,

But that doesnt seem to be the case, so please educate me as to why a class restricted race is better in those class's, (fighter and zerk), that it's restricted to, than those other races which have more diversityin which class you choose it to be.

They have HP of a dwarf and AC of a halfling... i have one at l24 that shoulda got around 390hp at arch, but stupidly i hp-reset it one night when drunk and now its only due around 370 .. Needless to say i left it at l24


Biggest downside is thier low wis makes them easy to pick of with mages (the low dex can easily be sorted out with mods)

I thought halflings had more of an ac bonus than the h/orc, but if its the same then cool,

They have a slighter greater chance of better HP than Dwarves. Also it's a 5ac bonus, not 7 like Halflings.

They'll also hit slightly better than a Dwarf.

But surely all that was obvious?
