There are so many races that you can find just about any permutation of +2/+1 to the ability scores that you want, so I expected it to be fine, but upon closer examination there really are a few races that are very precisely balanced. Obviously the Mountain Dwarf, but also flying races (I'm of the camp that they are not a big deal, but this certainly isn't helping matters); "my spell save DC will be lower" was my intended approach to persuading a DM to let me play an Aarakocra Wizard.In 99% of cases this is probably fine, but some choices here seem like exploits; I would not allow my players to use this option by default, and as a card carrying minmaxer, that is never a statement I make lightly.</blockquote>
