No change should be instituted three years into the game that so clearly unbalances things that people would be forced to question fundamental character decisions which we were told would have no bearing. I remember the conversations with the names in red back in the beginning. They said what difference will an extra 4 points in strength mean when you get to level 50? Go ahead, roll the race/class combo you want, your choice will have no bearing on how well you can fill that roll. Well clearly it now does, and that is why we are pissed. Somebody starting the game has a distinct advantage of being able to optimize that people who have been playing and PAYING for 3 years do not have unless they are willing to scrap 3 years of time and effort.

That is an unacceptable choice to be pushed into making.
Well said, I don't think any of us want to re roll and to add such big advantages to races at this point is ridiculous.

Oh, and unless you play 24 hours a day 7 days a week, and have someone PL'ing you, i dont see 1 to 70 even remotely possible in 3 weeks.

Thats 21 days, thats over 3 levels per day. Get a life.

Right, and the only race with a bonus to double attack is DE. But that doesn't count for anything, because double attack is not better than crit.

Despite it being Faabio and him using his typical langauge, I gotta say thanks for the informative reply. I'm extremely happy to hear that the in-combat runspeeds will not work in PvP. That makes the bitter pill of losing all my in-combat runspeed (45% via AA's, 56%+ via my level 39 spell) a lot easier to take.

Please also tell me that their +50% runspeed buff will not work if they're simply trying to run away from PvP without engaging ... please tell me that, because I detested EverRUN with a passion.

But... what does 2% double-attack have to do with being a froglok? I thought these racial traits were supposed to be oriented around common-sense observations of the race.
