Human Alt Traits Dual Talent and Versatile Human - exactly same?

[Saluzi]

I've read this until I'm blind but I can see no difference in cost or benefit. Is there errata on this or do I have a mind glitch?

[BigNorseWolf]

Slight mind glitch: the racial subtypes are exactly the same as swapping the racial traits out yourself. You can accidentally make an imperious human without the imperious human subtype for example

Since Dual talent replaces EVERYTHING a human gets, a subtype with dual talent and dual talent are in the same.

Eyes uncrossing now? :)

[Saluzi]

No, crossed even worse HELP!!!!
Dual talent replaces everything
Versatile Human replaces everything
That one is an alternate racial trait while the other is a a racial subtype means............??????????????

[BigNorseWolf]

A versatile human is the exact same thing as a human that has taken the dual talent alternate racial trait.

The racial subtypes are just suggested builds for using the alternate racial traits to make something with a theme.

[Saluzi]

So it's a chrome thing and they really are the same (except for a theme)?
I dunno. It's not the kind of thing I'd do in a rule book - tooo confusing.

Think of the subtypes as 'suggested builds' rather than new separate options.
