These ideas are based on full release where energy will be based on hunger.

These are all heavily unbalanced. Arcane Odyssey also isn’t a game that needs nor would be improved in any way by random races being clipped on. There’s only about 5 or 6 “races” that even canonically exist. (those being that we’re aware of as humans vastus sirens atlanteans and whatever the guys from those underwater ruins in AA were that could breathe underwater and all died out + also gods i guess if you count that)
Let me guess, you’re a big fan of starbound aren’t you? Jokes aside races are probably never going to be a thing for players outside of paid cosmetics. Pretty certain vetex said that any race that Isn’t human gets hunted down, which is why things like the satyr and harpies stay exclusively in the dark seas
You also have feralborn which basically just further fuels the main reason behind agility’s removal (i.e people running away from pvp encounters after getting low)
feralborn (agility got removed for admittedly decently good reasons this is probably the most overpowered)
Sangrim (see above)
dolorian (clan wars are OVER)
voidborn (mosquito gaming)
demon (why would you just give some magic passive buffs for existing against this class that’s just a sad nerf also again see first 1 and also that damage would get out of hand)
starforged (slowness is absurd and the energy cost/having to charge is minimal either way due to the new system)
thornkin (let’s play “don’t face the enemy” with shift lock but also destroy your offence and mobility)
slime (you cannot play this class 5 second dash cooldown is utterly absurd)
all of these classes are unbalanced in either the overpowered or underpowered way
let’s only throw shade at the suggestion and not the suggestor. That’s mean.
but tl;dr these don’t fit the game at all and don’t have any sort of balance (seriously do you not understand how massive a 30% damage bonus/reduction is)
sangrim cant regenerate hp and feralborn get reduced stamina regeneration so they lose mobility over long drawn fights. Feralborn also cant block so they have reduced defensive options
This is their first and only topic, they only ever commented a total of 6 times. And if a painting’s bad, I believe that should be the painter’s fault.
