That is, of course, not to say that generic high fantasy is bad. Eberron is one of the reasons I like DDO, the magitech is a nice change of pace. Could use more Warlocks, though.Nope, this guy's not a troll. He's just not yet outgrown the egocentric portion of his childhood.(Also, I tried to capture the essence of his posts, but I'm afraid I may have made him more legible than he normally is.)He's also got this bug up his butt about the fact that gnomes aren't yet playable in DDO.Despite the fact that Eberron Gnomes basically look like halflings (who look more like kender than actual halflings).There's a classic optimization concerning gnomes (and even worse: whisper gnomes). It's called the gnome illusionist, due to the gnomes' latent tendency to create illusions. IIRC, some gnomes even have the prestidigitation spell as a spell-like ability, and they cast illusion spells at +1 caster level. Maybe he likes this? He sounds just like a grumpy wizard to me (ok, I confess, I hate wizards)...His entire reason for pushing it is that it's a core race that hasn't been added yet.Also, the illusion spell list in DDO is sorely lacking.

@ guizonde: I think I like the way you think.
Warning: Biohazardously Awesome
Chameleon in Oblivion was pretty much as broken as Morrowind's Chameleon.It wasn't until Skyrim removed it that it was fixed. And the people whined about it, too.
I have been on the receiving end of unending hatred from various friends because I've been messing with D&D 5th edition.I almost forgot how stupid those fights could get.
No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were: "If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."
Aww, you guys rock. I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches. Tingly!
FUCKING YOUTUBE!!!

If you don't like X or prefer some particular version of X... then say so but why on Earth do people bother to RAGE about it to others who like X? Can't you just agree that you have different preferences? And even if you are furious over something like that why take it out on the people who like X rather than the developers?
