[QUOTE="niteshade6, post: 701701, member: 10320"] It's worth noting that elves can only tailor their stat adjusments if you allow the elf races that were not intended for PCs, such as grey elves and wood elves. Remember these races were never play tested or necesarily intended to be PC races, even though many allow them. By the official rules only normal elves can be played. I think humans are perfectly good as is, the extra feat and skill point can be quite strong for many characters especialy in a low-mid level campaign. Allowing them to rearrange their stats would make them much too good, that is an incredibly powerful ability. You could always get an advantage to the stat you need, and a drop in the one you don't, while still getting all the other human abilities. This would seriously knock the wind out of the half orcs sails, and would probably allow the human to trump the dwarf as well if he wanted con. Of course in 3.5, it looks like some races are being made stronger. Dwarves for example are getting the dwarven waraxe for free, which is quite strong, and dwarves were one of the better races to begin with. So if this trend continues, humans might need to get a little something too. Maybe they should get bastard sword as a martial weapon, the same way dwarves get the waraxe. [/QUOTE]
