[QUOTE="guachi, post: 7542208, member: 6785802"] You're responding to me but you're not responding to what I actually posted. I posted nothing that said that darkvision was 0.5 points. That was a different poster. You can fault his math but since you haven't actually done any analysis yourself I have zero reason to actually believe you. Take the PHB races, assume they all have the same "cost" and then show me what you thing WOTC values each ability at. Knock yourself out. He's the only person I'm aware of who has actually attempted to figure out racial abilities might cost, assuming all races have an equal "cost". Even so, there are some areas where the precise cost is unknown. For example, the gnomish magic resistance is valued at 4 for each of Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma saves. On the assumption that Wisdom saves are used more often you could value Wisdom at 8 and the others at 2. That works just like valuing them all at 4 does. [/QUOTE]
