Sub racial skill bonus

Silver Dwarf · Post by **Silver Dwarf** » Wed Jun 21, 2006 2:37 am

If a sub race has a skill bonus, making that skill bonus added to the stats as a base value kind of makes it pointless, so what if my half-ogre has +4 taunt, sure i have 8 taunt at level one, I CANT ADD POINT TO IT TILL LEVEL 6, i see no point in having this bonus by the time i hit level six it doesnt exist.

I thought this was so obvious...

The point is that those skill points are free. Sure you can't get higher skills any earlier, but you can spend the 4 points on something else OR carry them over till later to give some builds better stats later.

Want me to draw you a picture?

j/k

Well how about you PM me/other dev with them or acurately describe them in the help and support area for us?

Sky is blue, water's wet, women have secrets and software has bugs.

Telling your dev team about them is the only way for us to try and put these things right - it's impossible for us to test every nuance of the server and deliver the massive amount of extra features and content that we consistently do.

I guess this means that sometimes you guys end up testing things for us. However, when things don't quite work as planned we do appreciate intelligent feedback and your patience. We always correct these things as a priority.

Just consider that Microsoft has, for years, used its customer base as a beta testing ground and then consider that the NS4 developers are doing their work for free and with a great attitude. It is a natural human tendency to gripe, but I would urge all NS4 members to refrain from doing this in posts. Software development is challenging and if you've never done it, then you need to understand that it is virtually impossible to create bug-free applications (unless you're creating a simple "Hello World" program). Kudos to all the NS4 development team.

Could you try another dev instead? Flailer is in the process of moving, so he will be out of touch for the next week or so.
