So now we defend races with sayings like:
"are fine"
"slightly better"
"almost same stats"
"will do the same if not more damage with the buff to shadow stone"
"will be much better for PvP and still good in PVE"
At least have some little shame when you are spewing feelings instead of data.
I did some tests with specifically Khajiit, orc, Bosmer and Redguard. Will post them later.

there are many factors and you will never get accurate data, you can only compare the base stats and in my case 4 years of experience on this game and damage calcs
However there are those testing and presenting valuable data. It's far easier to make a point stand when you can point to data and evidence which isn't based on feelings.Bigevilpeter wrote: »So now we defend races with sayings like:

That is totally balanced, every class has a niche, nerfing any of the orc stats atm will just make them a worse version of another race as they were to dark elves before 4.3.2.
Alcast is just pissed off cause he has like 10 redguards

This doesn't mean you don't have to present some data yourself. If you have data to discredit someone else's testing then post that in their testing threads or make a thread about that. That's why people post data so it can be looked at and picked apart.Bigevilpeter wrote: »However there are those testing and presenting valuable data.

Last time "they" made tests Dark elves got higher dps than High Elves even though High elves had more stats which doesnt make sense, also these tests were done with perfect sustain which will rarely be the case

Part of the problem is errors, that is parse errors and crit luck, how many of your ultimates crit. Yes its an average but you still has an 0.3-0.5% error margin i guess, some can probably come up with an more accurate value but error margin is larger than most of the differences we are talking about here.This doesn't mean you don't have to present some data yourself.

Balancing a game based on peoples feelings about things is a terrible way to go about it.

I just watched it. He didn't lose it over Orcs.
He makes good points.
Why Play Dunmer at all for stamina? Why? Why? Why? Why?
Again, I play Khajiit, so whatever, idc.I also fully understand that is easy as someone who only plays Khajiit to be like "whatever" but come on, Orc looks to be a little overtuned.

But actually they’re not. I just posted a comparison of a Bosmer and Orc they’re perfectly capable of achieving the same damage stats. If they fixed the weird pen after dodge roll and reverted the odd stealth change, Bosmers would be in good shape. Anyways I’m sick of trying to reason with people. Everyone will see with the all powerful dps parses.

Not interested in Bosmer, interested in Redguard, Orc, Dunmer and Khajiit. Bosmer are screwed, forget about them.

And yeah, that's fine... but you know the majority won't. Again, the purpose was to make the races balanced.
So let's look at some math.
With Artaeum Takeaway Broth and the proposed 20% increase next week on stats. My Khajiit has 110007hp with just full medium armor on.
With 825 extra hp and 20% on the top of that PLUS 3724 from the gold recovery food and 20% on that, I'm sitting 16.4K HP. Orc will have slightly more HP. Both will have 0 issues with recovery and have a little less stam. Dunmer will have under 16Khp and as a stamina in a trial, that won't cut it.
So Orc and Khajiit's will have a boatload of recovery on top of their DPS perks. Khajiit's being inconsistency with crit and Orcs.. well again, just being powerful.
