New Racial Traits

[Teksun]

After the download/upgrade, I got the option for twom more racial traits and another Master Strike. As a woodelf, I took the +2% Range Crit (WHOOP) and +200 V disease. Master strike will probably be mintotaurs. What other options did races get?<div></div>

Yeah the + ranged crit was something else that I tried to get an answer on in the beta forum as well to no avail. Kerra got new racial traits as well but nothing at all that could effect combat, unless you count unsheathed claws which is low power low damage slashing attack on something like a five minute or more recast timer. But yeah it appears that SOE attempted new racial traits for everyone.

I have no idea cuz I'm stuck on the download from hell despite buying the box version. DL time thus far is something in the area of 15 hours /groan.Edited to add:  I assumed that the respec of the racial traits was a beta thing along with the new master strikes.  Is this not the case??<p>Message Edited by Mronin on <span class=date_text>11-15-2006</span> <span class=time_text>02:01 PM</span>

[Mronin]

Humm.. went to him and the only thing he offered was to respec my AA's.  The racial traits I was presented with when I logged in were the same ones as before, only I got to choose two of the old ones though.  Oh well.<div></div>
