Another Reward for Gambling similar to the Gender Change Stone.

What do you guys think about a Stone that can change the Appaerance of your Race but not the Race itself? (Obviusly you can only choose Races that can be your Class)

What I mean is, for example: "I'm a Eldritch (Which can be an Elf and a Lurikeen), and I'm an Elf and I like the Stats of the Elf, but I want the Appaerance of the Lurikeen... I use that Stone and it allow me to be a Lurikeen with the Stats of an Elf."

Obiuvsly there is the need of imposing a Limitation that is based on which Races your Class can be, for avoiding Lurikeen Bards, Half-Ogre Friar or a Troll Runemaster...

At least you give the opportunity to people to choose the Race that they like the most between the one avaiable for your Class without gimping their Char because the race that they prefer is shit (Example: Full Melee Classes on Midgard that are "forced" to go Troll).

Personally I would like to change the Appaerance of my Frostalf Thane in a Norseman (Which is my favourite Race), but without losing the Frostalf Stats.
And since there is the Limitation that you can only change the Appareance of your Race with Races that can be your Class, you don't run into problems like not being able to recognize anymore Classes or seeing Classes/Races combos that do not make sense.

Also that method do not allow different combination of Class/Race (which are not permitted) that could lead to imbalance.

There is already an Exerrace Stone ingame which allows you to change your race. It costs either 50k Bps or 100k Feathers. You need to finish DS once to get the credit.

I know, It's not what I explained in the post...

With the stone I explained, you KEEP the Stats of your Base Race, and ONLY change the appaerance.

So I'm a Celt Hero with 60 base Strenght? I change to Firbolg but I keep the 60 base Strenght of the Celt.

And as I said obviusly you can't change the appaerance in a Race which can't be your Class... So in the example I used, I couldn't change the appaerance to Elf (Which can't be a Hero).

It's a way to allow people to choose the appaerance that they like the most (OBVIUSLY between the ones permitted by the Class/Race restrictions) and also keeping the Stats of the Base Race that they choosed at the start (Or changed later on with the Exerrace Stone).

So you could use the advantage of being small (example Kobold/Luri) but would get the stats of the "bigger" races (like Troll, Bolg). Luris or kobolds that hit like a truck? Hm no.

It is a bit similiar to our policy on reskins. We only allow reskins that the class could actually use and dont want players to fake "classes". If you are a Bolg with the appearance of a Luri you would "fake" that you dont deal much damage. Such a stone would mix to many things up, which would cause way more issues than you might think now.

Fair enough
