[QUOTE="Remathilis, post: 9299477, member: 7635"] Exactly my point! In the UA playtest 1, high elves, wood elves, and drow all get three bonus spells (1 cantrip, one first, and one 2nd level) as well as a minor augmentation to another racial trait. High: Prestidigitation, Detect Magic, Misty Step, and the ability to swap the cantrip to another on the [arcane] (probably wizard) list after a long rest. Wood: Druidcraft, longstrider, and pass without trace and +5 ft of speed. Drow: Dancing Lights, Faerie Fire, Darkness, and +60 ft of darkvision. Yup. That's all a high, wood, and drow elf get to differ themselves. Compare that to what the other elves get in MotM (and Spelljammer) Astral: bonus cantrip (one of three light-themed choices), teleport prof/md per day, a tool/weapon and a skill prof per day. Eladrin: teleport prof/mod per day with a bonus effect based on season. Two tool/weapon profs per day. Sea: swim speed, water breathing, speak with fish, cold resistance, and two tool/weapon profs per day. Shadar-kai: Teleport prof/mod per day (with bonus damage reduction for 1 round), necrotic resistance, two tools/weapon profs. Its insulting how bad the PHB elf looks. And I wager if the PHB elf is allowed to go print like that, they will be outclassed by their older elves until they too are reduced to a three bonus spells and an extra trait. [/QUOTE]
