Re: Race Idea: Predator!

Depressingly enough this game me an idea.

Slow race with bad melee and defensive apts, but good ranged apts, with an invisibility ability using the exhaustion limiter.
Three wins: Gargoyle Earth Elementalist of Ash, Ogre Fighter of Ru, Deep Dwarf Fighter of Makhleb (0.16 bugbuild :( )

Re: Race Idea: Predator!

This probably belongs in CYC, but I request that the moderators give it a chance to become something. Treat it like a "predator race idea, what would it look like" thread and if it gets out of hand then it can be yuifed.

A predator race would probably have decent ranged aptitudes and good stealth and would eventually learn invisibility at a later level. Probably low apts in magic but nothing impossible to deal with. And just to make it interesting, make their shortblade aptitudes -5 so they are discouraged from going the stealthy stabber roubt via daggers.
To all new players: Ignore all strategy guides posted on the wiki, ask questions in the Advice forum, players with lots of posts normally have the best advice.

I wonder how weak a species would have to be in order to make perma-invis possibly a reasonable thing.
