I've been experimenting with some other player races and was wondering if anyone else has done so in Pathfinder and what they came up with. Specifically I made up a Goblin Ranger last night. I kept him pretty much the same as in the SRD MM but I did change the dex bonus to +4 to even out his abilities.

I've also allowed my current players to use any +1 LA races as standard races in PF as they do seem to be about equal to the core PF races at this point.

Just wondering if anyone had any comments/experience with this?

Just wondering if there has been any dev chat on Level Adjustment? I truely hate LA and I know I'm not alone. I plead with the Pathfinder Devs to use something else for "more advanced player races." Sure you can just simply disallow them but we all know that's not going to happen, there needs to be rules set up for it and I believe they need to be in the Player's Guide.

Someone is going to want to play a drow at least so something needs to be set up. My personal ideas....either 1) A monster class system similar to what was in Monteys UA/UE or what was in the 3.0 Savage Species. I'm not saying I'm a huge fan of those systems either but at least they are better then LA. The other option is 2) simply de-power the races and somehow make them equal to the base races.

Now, it looks like PF has already helped with this by upping the power of the base races. In fact I think you could almost make a drow right now that is equal to the base elf.

Just wondering what others thoughts are and if the Dev's hve posted anything on this yet?

The Energy Channeling helps and so does the Sorc's choice of Bloodline but there are still issues witht he 5-minute workday that need to be solved. Maybe I'm missing it but I don't see anything yet for the Wiz (and to a lesser extent the cleric)that gives them an "every round" basic magic attack. IMO this is a must to fix 3.5, do that however and I think Paizo is on their way to creating THE base d20 RPG system, replacing D+D 4th...

I have to say that I very much like the Talent System introduced for the Rouge but why can't we do these for every class. It would be akin to the Discipline system that Monte Cook did for his Book of Exp Might. Would be very helpful in allowing a customization for each class and help eliminate the 5 minute workday. Just eliminate the powers that classes get and transform them into Talents that people can then choose to take...Simple...

Does anyone do any Item Card trading here.

I need a Greatsword and a Warhammer and I've got a bunch of stuff to trade.

let me know
