[QUOTE="RogueJK, post: 207902, member: 170"] Woah... hold on a second there. Have you compared the Sheetah to any of the other ECL +3 races? They aren't even close to +3 ECL, IMNSHO. And the main reason that Drow are ECL +2 is their Spell Resistance. Take that away, and they are merely ECL +1. Pass without Trace and Speak With Animals are nice abilities, but nothing gamebreaking. They have little use in combat, which is mostly what the ECL system is balanced for. As far as the skill bonuses go, compare them with the Halfling. The Halflings get close to the same skill bonuses to Jump, Climb, and Hide, and they have an ECL modifier of 0. The bonuses to Listen, Spot, and Search, on the other hand, while good, certainly don't require [B]that[/B] much of an ECL modifier. While I agree that they need an ECL modifier, +3 is [B]way[/B] too high. +1 or +2 is certainly more reasonable. [Edit] Fixed Drow ECL. :o [/Edit] [/QUOTE]
