A elven wizard proficient with a longbow and all those nifty spells is really nice. True strike, cat's grace, magic weapon...But then again, you can never go wrong with a human fighter. That extra feat is superb. Or a human rogue, getting more than 40 skills points at 1st level is the best.On a roleplaying note, I'd day humans are easier to play. Elves aren't usually impulsive and decisive. They supposedly tend to be more contemplative. They long lives allows them to take the time to think things through befire acting.They certainly are not tree hugging wusses. I play in FR and being attacked by the Eldreth Veluthra in the middle of Cormanthor scared the crap out of my human cleric. Besides drow are elves, and I don't see anyone calling them sissies.Half-elves suck. Although, I don't consider myself a munchkin or powergamer, I'd never pick such a weak race. It has no perks at all. That bonus against enchantments and low-light vision just doesn't cut it. The bonuses of Spot, Listen and Search are just not that useful, considering humans can get Alertness or just buy some ranks in those skills with their extra points. Roleplay wise either I don't see the advantages of playing a half-elf. In the classical fantasy setting, half-elves aren't necessarily discriminated against, and who can complain, one of your parents is almost imortal. If I want to play a torment half-breed, I'd play a half-orc.</blockquote>
