Sentinel's Fate: Racial Traditions Change Again

[Calthine]

<p>Seems like they just changed the racial traditions, doesn't it?  They did, it was Game Update 53 this summer.  With Sentinel's Fate racial traditions receive further tweaking.  Here's our wiki article on the upcoming changes.</p><p><strong><a href="http://eq2.zam.com/wiki/Category%3ARacial_Traditions" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: large;">Sentinel's Fate Racial Traditions at ZAM</span></a></strong></p>

I only know because I recently made an eurdite (already have high/dark elves).</p>

<p>The Str to Agi change is to compensate for the change in main atributes (Str will be mostly useless to scouts now, except for carry capacity) Agi will be determining all damage for scouts.</p><p>I didn't see any other changes between the new and the old. According to the charts the Iksar havn't changed, they were, and will be a tank/mage package.</p>

<p>We noticed this when Hubby rolled up an Erudite in Beta and we saw that some names had changed on the racials.  It's not huge changes, like GU53 (which is why I called them "tweaks"), but I thought folks woiuld like to know rather than be suprised <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p><p>The "packages" have not changed since GU53.  We also noted which crafting professions the assorted races lean toward.</p>

<p>So long as my kerra continue to get tracking, I'm happy. <img src="/eq2/images/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" /></p>

<p>I've had a kerran ranger since near the game's beginning in 2004, now I am "blessed" with double tracking and double safefall. Thank you?</p>
