Hello,
I'm working on a new race, and would like to mimic canon material in balance and functionality. I was wondering if there's any guidance anywhere in regards to how to formulate alternate favored class bonuses, specifically for balance. I could just compare other race favored class bonuses, but I'd feel more comfortable with some official writing or guidance anywhere. If none exist, how would you tackle this? Or avoid it all together? Thanks.

There isn't really a guidance for them, some races bonuses are either way too good or way too weak.
In the too good category:
Kobold monk ends up with +6 untyped bonus to their AC with their favored racial bonuses.
Goblin rogues ends up with +20 damage on their sneak attack damage by level 20, which is huge.
too weak:
dhampir fighter: bonuses to stabilize...heh.
I didn't realize how unbalanced they were.
I guess that gives me some decent guidance. Hit for below Kobold Monk and above Dhampir Fighter :)
