With the same logic, then you could create anything to kill anything. In the next expansion the Fae will be driving M1A2s, with A-10 close air support.
All fantasy worlds have some rules. If you ever played D&D, you would see a ton of books on the subject.
Now in the Lord of the Rings (The grandfather of FANTASY). When Gandalf, Frodo and the gang were in the Mines of Mordia. The Orcs came pouring in with the Troll. Did Frodo jump up and say, " Hey you guys get behind me and see what a Halfling He-Man can do! "
Now what did Frodo do, he ran. Only after the troll drilled him did Sam and the other hobbit, jump on the trolls back. They didn't meet him head on.
Also by reading my first post, I could/should have said. Would you rather have the same Race to classes as EQ1. But like I said before, I am not saying this to get EQ2 changed like EQ1 or changed at all. Just for conversation.
I think it deserves mentioning that the halflings in LOTR had no previous combat experience whatsoever. The dwarf was short and he certainly held his own in a fight.
I can definately see you're point, but I think the new racial traditions will be enough to make one race stand out over another in certain ways.
