Racial Abilities

Rebutko

Has anything specific been announced about racial abilities for different races? Using a wow example like WoTF for undead, stun resist for orc, warstomp for tauren etc.

All about races in the wiki: https://ashesofcreation.wiki/Races

However, IIRC, all races have the same starting stats. However, racial quests and perhaps advancements available in a Metro which has a dominant race will lead to diversity beyond the obvious physical look of the races.

I wonder - was it a Balancing Issue ? I could imagine this to be the Case.

If they remove any "great" Differences one could feel in the Game - then they would immediately silence everyone who would whine about it anyway. Not a bad Move if i am honest.

Although i would find it cool if for example the nordic looking Humans would have slightly higher Cold/Frost Resistance like for Example the Nord in Elder Scrolls.

Something not to powerful and Advantage in every Area. More just like a smol' Gimmick. But i think anything removed for Races that would probably gives them a noticeable Advantage in their "own Biome Area's", would probably conflict with the Developers Goals to make like every Node in every Area of the World conquerable for every Race.

so everyone is the same and it doesn't matter what race you are?
