    I play my monk a lot more than my rogue, but in my experience stamina is precious for both. My rogue burns through a ton of stamina using vanish. CM points are always going to be tight for pures -- I've looked into a way to pick up a couple ranks of this on my monk, but there's nothing I can really afford to give up for more than one rank.

    Yeah, smaller races can avoid encumbrance by not picking up anything, but that's kind of a big deal. All of my square halflings have to leave a trail of boxes wherever they go. You don't HAVE to pick up loot, but a lot of folks would certainly prefer to be able to pick up stuff other than gems.

    And don't forget about size-based penalties for many maneuvers like charge, tackle, shield bash.
    I'd have to do some testing to really say for sure, about how many ranks are needed. My comment about only needing a rank or two, is because I don't think that in MOST cases, you would need all 3 ranks. How many critters are you actually hunting that you need a 3 foot higher reach?

    Even so, 18 points is a small price to pay.

    And I don't think a couple stamina per attack is really going to starve anyone out of stamina. It's certainly magnitude less stamina than having to prone something with cmans.

    As for encumbrance, me being a human doesn't magically make me immune to it, either. I leave boxes all the time because of it. But for +40 eTD I would literally pay billions of silvers for - an amount that I would NEVER obtain from loot gains, and certainly a lot more expensive than a weight reducing bag.

    And yes, I have not forgotten the penalties for those cmans as a small race. Just like I have not forgotten about penalties large races have, such as hitting smaller critters (Like one that I hunt on a daily basis - Cerebralites.).

    18 CM points is not a small price, that's an insane statement.

    Look you have a hard on for TD, we get it.

    Actually, it's their maneuver bonus I personally care about the most.

    And as I said earlier, I call into question how much they even need 3 ranks, in most cases.

    It just feels like humans in general are underwhelming as a race.

    Point is, smaller races got advantages and their disavantages can be mitigated by simu's encomberance pots and now this for one shot kill

    What was developed for larger races to compensentate their disavantages vs this new buffed for smaller races?
