Subrace Properties / Gift
Posted: Tue May 03, 2016 10:20 pm
Helloo,
Just a small suggestion here: make it so that selecting a character's subrace properties in the gift menu does not actually count towards the amount of gifts one can take. Meaning that once you have selected subrace properties, you can still take three 'other' gifts.
I do realize that would make not taking the properties foolish in some cases, but then again, they will still add unwanted ECL. Also, for some subraces the properties do not even actually give 'extra' stats, but merely have +2 points in an attribute replaced with +2 in another (or worse, like with wood elves). Sun elves, for example, just receive +2 int instead of the normal elf's +2 dex. So why would this be considered a 'gift'? They are the subrace's natural properties after all.
