Full Version: Improving Stats Where Metatype Is Concerned

Ok, it states that upping an attribute requires Karma equal to 3xNew Rating.

Now, question. Does this mean that nonhumans are shafted?

ie, does this mean that if a Troll were to increase his Body from 6-7 (ie, the equivalent for a human increasing it from 1-2), that he has to pay 21 karma? Or is it more a case of the cost is related to your racial minimum, rather than zero?

The basic Karma costs do indeed shaft Trolls who fail their min/maxxing checks at first level.

Both Serbitar's BP = Karma system and my Karma = BP system address that problem in various ways.

Are either of these online somewhere? If so could you please post a link?

Thanks.

everyone complains that metahumans are overpowered anyways, this is one way to keep them balanced.

Obviously, no one has seen what a human with 8 edge can do.
Demerzel
Yea, but that human has to deal with that extra cost associated with the increased stat the same way a meta has to deal with an enhanced stat... nyahnyah.gif

Ouch! 8 edge. Ye gods above!

"I use edge to blow the troll away with one shot."

"But you only have a firearms of 1 and an agility of 3"

BLAM

*on a side note I was rather surprised that dragons didn't have more edge lol. One would wonder whether great elves would be allowed to have more as well.
