Another time she was dying from poisoning and she resisted the cure poison of the npc healer.

#NEVERWINTER NIGHTS 2 RACES SKIN#

I remember once my character was being cut to ribbons in melee and she resisted the healing spells or the stone skin cast upon her.

I bet the same could be true to an extent also for full orcs vs halforcs.ДЄs for spell resistance, I can count on the fingers of one hand the times my characters have resisted a hostile spell, while I have lost count of how many times they botched boons being casted on them. Well, I have played drow and svirfnebli extensively and I can safely say that having tested exactly the same build of character both on a drow and on a halfdrow, the halfdrow comes out much stronger. I mean to say, my observations (not first-hand experience) don't allow me to agree that these races are currently worse off, on the whole, than races without ECL modifiers. In the three inter-racial combat tournaments I've watched or been a part of since joining FK, the drow has come out on top or very nearly so, even when it's a noncaster fighting casters orcs seem to be able to just hack there way through many things like nobody's business, and at lower levels than some other PCs might be able to keep up etc. Sure, they might be worse at some things than other races, but I've also seen huge strengths in drow and orc PCs that most humans and the like couldn't achieve.

It's a newer section of the world map, so it's only natural that the older sections (i.e., the surface) will be more widely implemented. I think this point is more a matter-of-time thing, where eventually the UD will be just as populated as the surface. And while the UD might not have as many cities, quest areas, and what have you, I've seen in recent memory several new and very well-done areas added and changes made down there. or involving them in PvP spars with drow PCs, and I can't agree that it's more a hinderence, especially at higher levels.ДЄs for being stuck underground, well, that is just part of the race.

But I think about bringing my spellcasters to the UD, Alaron, etc. Vaemar wrote: It is worth mentioning also that most of these races have actually very huge maluses like spell resistance (which is 90% of the time a hindrance rather than an advantage), being stuck in the Underdark or being barred from the most developed areas and thus quests (and thus magic items and glory rewards) and you have got a very bleak picture for these 'more powerful' races. So in short the proposal is to let everybody, regardless of their ECL, reach level 50, but with a higher cost, as in tabletop and in other games that implemented D&d 3.x ruleset.

Because with levels also come feats, bonus feats, spells per day, base attack bonus and hit points.ДЄlso Neverwinter Nights 2 that had the various ECL races of Forgotten Realms used a similar system, where ECL races still could get to the highest level available, but for a higher experience cost. In fact, while some races are more powerful than others, in the end being unable to attain max level is much worse than any bonus the race provides. You can read it clearly at page 21 of the Forgotten Realms campaign setting for the 3rd edition.

In fact in tabletop at least ecl races can still achieve the highest available level as non-ecl races do, although at a higher experience cost. Even in tabletop it sucks, but I would dare say in FK it sucks even more.
