Reasons why Sv should give, or should not give us 50-100 more Action Points.(Update: I changed my mind on that,after the Conversations in this Thread)

Humans are the least specialized but also the most versatile, you can lean in all directions depending on your ancestry. If there was more attribute diversity they would actually be better, some attributes are just more powerful than others and if you want to go one direction you basically have to choose a specific attribute set. If there was for example magic that is str or dex based or armed combat that was int or psy based you'd have a lot more possibilities, choices and ultimately balance and a setup with a more average distribution of attributes could benefit from mixing them up.
Humans already get the most attributes and skill points from clade gifts anyway.

I'd rather they balance attributes and give more versatile playstyles than try to artificially balance clades.

Also don't trust the character creation numbers. Just look at the health and stamina differences:

I see it the Exact Opposite. I see them as the least versatile bc they have to lean in too deep to be good at really anything fighting related.
Alvarians and Ogmirs are very very versatile.

Im running an Alvarian Potion Master. A human can specialize into it better, but I decided I HAVE to have 125+dex

 

[Necromantic]

They each can only go a specific direction, that makes them more distinct but not more versatile.

 

[Avenoma]

in mo1 maybe lol - you're thinking way to min/max meta IMO

Do you think im going to stay a potions master
Thats you the true beauty of this game, how dynamic it is.
I'll never understand min/maxing

 

[Anabolic Man]

A human should be able to reach 121 Str and 90 dex when stout, but have less damage Bonus Nodes as the Thursar Kurite.

imho people should just play whichever race they like, personally i don't care about oghmir being probably best fat mage or humans being jack of all trades, i'll just pick my pure sheevra and have fun with it

 

[Necromantic]

Well, I always do that. I play what I like and then try to maximize for what I want with what I have.
I honestly hate the whole concept of fat mages and all that bullshittery min-maxing, as an honest Blainn player. Make horses throw them off when they are too heavy.
