Throw in some lost boys, a pirate with a hook and we can officially change norrath to never never land.

My happy thought, the removal of all fairies from this game.

at least put on a class restriction...casters only.  Melee fairies = [Removed for Content]!?

That is a shame, really.

I love playing my fae, and when i get home form work i will make an aresai.

Lots of fun to float around with. 

<---All man and not ashamed of the fae!

They need an emote: /eatfae Your character will pickup the fae, chew on it a few times then spit it out. I think it's an excellent idea.  Either that or /abusefae  .. your character will just lay a beating on the fae for a while.

Yeah, I agree!

Let's have class restrictions.  That way Halflings, Half Elves, High Elves, Dark Elves, Wood Elves, Gnomes, Erudite, and Ratonga would all be priests and mages!  Because, after all, they all make [I cannot control my vocabulary] for melee!  Amirite?

Yeah this is just like when frogloks were released and Norrath was over run with the sound of 'ribbit'. And now? I can't remember the last time I saw a frorlok anywhere - in fact when i do, its quite impressive. Its a case of 'wow look, a froglok!'. When I group with my main I dont find the fae outnumbering any of the other classes either. This sort of thing always happens when a new race comes out. Soon itll level out and just become 'another race'.

I don't mind the fae so much. I made an Arsai last night from a Fae placeholder I had for the name.

My beef is the special treatment they received. Special dances... and the fact that "safefall" pretty much became trivial with this race. Why would I bother leveling up my assassin when I can just roll an Arsai or Betrayed Fae one? They probably should have thought about that one a bit more before putting it in.

And for those of you who don't like the fae/arsai, save up your snowballs and just peg them when they're trying to float down somewhere. Instant Falling Fae.

My girlfriend the first time she saw a Froglok: "Oh my god he's so cute!!"

Coyote wrote a funny story about this...which in turn was read by people, some of which have some sort of authority over the game, and thus it was fixed...

That's impossible, because Coyote is NOT FUNNY EVER.

See the NGD forum for more on this, but remember: discussion of Coyote on the NGD forum is NOT permitted. Violaters of this rule will be made fun of!

personally, i LIKE the arasai (and fae too for that matter). yes, i am a guy. i admit i like the arasai wings. some of them are VERY manly looking. i could do without the emo dance and emo hair tho, but the wings really scream guy with arasai more than they do with fae.

i see no reason why arasai, or fae for that matter cannot be good scouts for melee.... think about it. you are a smaller race, harder to hit, more agile, and nimble because your center of gravity is so much lower. not to mention you dont really need to work up safe fall as a fae or arasai. you get glide at lvl 10 (you DID pick glide at 10 didnt you? ) i had an assassin on test that totally kicked butt on test, and i remade him on live servers and now it seems he kicks butt even more. dunno how that is possible, but thats the way it seems.

assassins seem to be able to solo more effectively as a scout than some of the others, rangers would be the exception to that, but then again assassins are supposed to be the evil rangers anyway.

1. i wish people  would stop saying froglocks are cute!! i play a froglock  which ilike but geting tire of having to change his skin color just to make him look less cute geezSMILEY! thought that was the purpose of the faes were.

2. in the best best interest of the game and to spur some fun faction pvp i suggest adding seige battles such forces of neriak invading the fae city of kelenth and alowing it to be burned . that would could the overly cute fay population and prove the aresai are the true pure ans superior winged race. after which neriak forces can concentrated on taking over freeport!

you all know number 2 is the best way to deal with the over population of cuteness being the colorful fairies which are not to be confused with the sadistic aresai race

Cute or not, my Froglok always feels like he's at a Las Vegas style buffet when he's in Kelethin.

Give it a month and you wont see nearly as many Arasai around. Trust me when I made my fae and levelled her the higher I got the less of my kindred I saw. Would love to see the numbers on level 70 fae...I seriously dont think it is many on the PvE servers. But of course my arasai will someday be up there in level with my fae...once you get used to safefall as a caster there is no going back. SMILEY
