umm, I don't think I could go toe to toe with an equally geared paladin. Rydak was like 3/4 the gear that I had and I barely won, like barely, if you look at the log, he drastically outdamaged me, the only reason I can ever beat a paladin is trickery, I get severely out damaged and out lasted. if you stack the right saves im screwed. I just wholly disagree that they even need a nerf at all. Its actually quite hilarious that you think a shaman could go head to head with a paldin at all. |

My issue here Beia, all you can see is Oh, Phahrdrah just wants to keep steam rolling people. Except, thats not why im arguing. I steam roll people because I took the time and effort and luck to aquire all the items I have. What I Am concerned about is seeing someone else, in like malicious beast facing off against someone like Lolath. How do you think thats going to go with a wrath vuln? |

I will say this for the last time, it is not about your quasit shaman honestly. I don't think you have much skill, regardless and honestly you are not steamrolling anyone you are number 1 with a negative KD.
It is about Quasit's as a whole. Look at Quasit Illusionist or Quasit Invokers. You have to be kidding me if you are sitting there thinking its fine they don't have a vuln. Shamans at least have protection that mitigates a lot of other shit, also do you even know what Size small means? Do some research and please come to the table with a viable solution. Right not as it stands Quasit's are over preforming compared to other races and there is no denying that. I doubt you even use dopplerganger. |

forget casters Quasit thieves would get fuuucked up
i can honestly say i never played a quasit tho, so idk what ya do there. it is a little odd they dont have a vuln so many of the other evil races have, but i really dont care
can they land/fly at will like avians? |

How about if we say just Light damage not wrath? +1 Str and Vuln to Light. |

beia just schooled you phahrdrah, you are sandbagging and he knows it
a wrath vuln is obviously overkill. I vote for a nerf to carry weight
this can go in when we reduce the weight of worn items |

I think the total power of the quasit race should be balanced against the pixie race
they should be about as powerful and viable as each other |

I agree. So what type of solution can we come up with to scale quasit down to pixies? |

Evil toons should be facing an uphill battle against paladin. That’s the whole point of paladin. That’s why paladins get hosed by neutrals. Since this got pushed, my gut check still says quasit should probs have a vuln. Perma fly, doppelganger and cause fear with no vuln? Higher con than illithid. [[Higher strength than pixie.]] <-- That's wrong. Pixies have one higher strength, what I was thinking of was the shrink weapon benefit that would open up those high weight weapons to pixie and not quasit.

That's a decent point but so niche of a drawback. Paladins, DKs, warriors and berserkers with charge. Monk with air thrash. Ranger with aerial shot. The other nine classes don't have an aerial counter skill. So that's a susceptibility to a single ability of 1/3 of the game's classes. |

To add to Ergorion's list...
Shadows have grapple to counter flying opponents.
Also, I thought Quasits had 16 strength? Pixies have 17, on par with halflings. |

Blackwidow's right about the strength. I was totally just thinking in terms of weapon availability and the shrink weapon spell that pixies have so that they could wield those 40 pound weapons at one quarter the size. |

Also, the charge thing does ground them, but then it doesn't lag them a second time because they're already grounded. Also, the lag on the paladin doing the charge often exceeds the lag on the flying target. Chaining charges isn't a thing. |

Has anyone ever considered that maybe vulns in this game are too strong? Vulns absolutely wreck and it makes balance difficult, I think you can see that in this thread.
What if there was more than one tier of vulnerabilities? Like fire giants could keep their full ice vuln but quasits could have a toned down, minor vuln to wrath. This idea could be expanded to other races too. |

From what I've researched, I think that's already a case, divsky?
Like duergars are less suspectible to water than dwarves etc. |
