I don't know why people think this isn't important. Its not going to make the blindest bit of difference to questers and crafters, sure, but in trials and pvp, its very important. You're always going to be aware that you could be better but restrained by your race. Some races will just have a built in advantage that you lack. Its noticeable now with soft caps, with the removal of soft caps its going to be fairly obvious.

Why are they even removing soft caps? I know everything is going x10, but why no new soft caps?

I say remove racials, remove all active and passive skills, remove all armour and equipment, remove levels, remove all weapons but one called 'stick' it will do 1 damage with it's only attack which we can call 'thwack' and will take one second. All characters will have health regen of 100 per sec.

The game will consist of identical characters thwacking each other with sticks, no more than 99 characters can ever play in the same instance at one time.

This will ensure that no-one ever loses, no-one will be OP, if your skill is broken then all skills will be broken & no-one will be able to take time, effort and planning to get a build that can beat the others so no-one will ever be sad again.

Bored as f*** but not sad.

Better idea - with the Champion system if you don't like your race- REROLL. Won't take long to get to lvl 50, you'll have all the Champion points of your main. You can even transfer your gear. Problem solved.

People who say race change shouldn't be possible because choices should mean something - I hope you guys haven't used the re skill option ever or you are a hypocrite. Want to change your skills - reroll man.... er ya right cause I don't have to work or entertain a real life at all! i'll just sit here and play through the entire game again! zzzzzzzzzz

A race change must be possible if they are not balanced (which they are not FACT). The recent nerf to sneak damage was a kick in the face to everyone who chose their race intending to play from sneak. I now feel that the race i chose to match the build i designed is unplayable due to this change.... Sure it still works sort if but it doesn't work as it did. Massive changes such as the nerf to sneak damage cannot be added in willy nilly without either, changes to racials to compensate or a race change option.

Allowing a race change option will prove the lack of balance. PVP will be full of dark elf/imperial/breton. They are clearly the strongest races even without the removal of soft caps. With the removal..... oh dear god.

Bad example - I have changed careers in my life and learned new skills in order to do so, I have yet to change into a cat.

Already created a topic about this few weeks ago. Those racial passives should be realy reworked.
Every race should have boost to stats or no races should have any stats boosts or remove all race passives and move them to CP.

Once again, there been so many changes to the game which affectected the effectiviness of racial passives, that those passives shoul be reworked or players should have a posibility to change their race.
Its very unfair to players who choose race at the moment when passives was not that important and there no such thing as min max and game was actualy designed the way that every1 supposed to be equal. Now they suddenly beeing put under huge disadvantage.

I can repeat that million times. Re roll is not the answer when we beeing punished by ZOS choises of game design changes.
Re roll is NOT the answer in any case untill achivements will be made accountwide. No way in hell i will spent another infinite part of my life to get those annoying achivs with bizzare spawn mechanics. I better unsub and switch to the game devoloped by people with heads on their shoulders.

P.S. i rly love those health regen, faster swimming, faster sprinting e.t.c. passives. They help me to faster runaway from people with usefull passives.
