I know Humans have +1 to stats based on class, but what if instead that +1 stat was available for players to choose instead? Maybe I want a warrior with 1 more con, or a mage with better wis than int. |

Thinking about it, I feel this should be implemented at the IMMs earliest convenience as it's not a huge change worthy to be in a patch, yet it would still be a viable change for anyone making players and not having to wait. |

Actually I've suggested this before in my own morting days because I wanted to have a 21 strength human ranger (and who wouldnt) and I can tell you with a full 100% certainty that the original implementors of AR will be spinning in their graves if we mess with their carefully deliberated choices of "prime stat". Like, the suggestion was met and rejected with prejudice. I don't really see the issue with the human race choosing its prime stat. My suggestion was a little bolder than yours, I had said why did you start everybody with 3 trains when its a fixed +1. Like it seems like I should be able to train to 23 str since I have 3 trains, or split train my str/dex/con for a jack of all trades. I was saying basically let me use my initial 3 trains to define my characters strength and weaknesses. Makes sense right? If we can get strong support for the idea, with all of the curent imps on board, I'd say we can go ahead with letting humans pick their prime stat if they want to. |

Support. Picking prime stat on humans almost certainly isn't OP, especially when most class prime stats already make sense?
Allowing trains to go above racial max seems rife for getting an OP character somehow, so we'd have to be much more thoughtful on that one. |

I don't play humans usually, but I think this idea would be cool. |
