[QUOTE="Atom Mlatom, post: 6293981, member: 6720582"] Hmm. I will respond with more detailed evaluations soon, but for one example it's hard to say whether the problem is really a problem or just something that takes a little player imagination to solve. For a "high goblin" (custom race) who was intended to be built as an assassin, it seemed like I had peculiar options. In this case, I wasn't planning on a "criminal" type background. He was an assassin because his authorities valued him as such. What I was looking for was like a military / Spartan schooling kind of background, and what I ended up choosing was Page/Squire/Knight/Assassin/Assassin. The wording just seemed funny and, to some extent, perhaps the skills and ATT perks offered, just because this was a character from a culture you would not normally envision using those Tradition titles. That being said, I think the character still turned out pretty cool and even a little outside of the box of what I would have rubber stamped as a beastie assassin. (another great benefit of the Career system) [/QUOTE]
