Q: Is there a difference in the development of humans and elves?

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 12:37

A: The trick is that elves often have a higher threshold of free stats and a very long life. It's also easier for them to get cool classes. Plus the experience of many generations, a well-honed system of training youngsters, and strong mutual support (albeit with a lot of intrigue and setups) in the face of mortal danger.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 12:38

They very often reach impressive levels. That is, to meet the first-level elf outside their forests is impossible as a rule. They just won't let them go anywhere.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 19:13

They are all high-level compared to the gray mass of humans. But with levels 50+, it's complicated. There their elite, if they are superior to ordinary humans, is not very much.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 19:14

At these ranks, age means little - you have to go regularly, as if for work, to such hells where it is easier to lose your head than to drink a beer.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 19:15

And elves, despite their strength and natural abilities, are very precious about their eternal life. And there are few of them, and the birth rate is fucked. So it turns out that the extremely high average level of elves is leveled by the number of other races and the presence among them REAL elite.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 19:17

Elves have very few 50+ level fighters, and almost all of them are Summoned. In fact, elves are one of the biggest fans of summoning a servant. The consequence is that they have expensive reagents growing under their feet, so they use them. In return, elves rarely sacrifice Heroes, considering it immoral. To sew a piece of someone else's soul onto themselves.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 19:19

They sell their servants sometimes, but seldom, preferring to keep their weapons to themselves. And there are few buyers. The ones who can afford it will summon it themselves, and who knows what the elves in the summoner's head have managed to twist.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 19:19

Something like that.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 19:20

They need more experience, but with their lifespan, it's nothing. But the constant risk and the need to fight creatures that can eat the very soul (high-level monsters very often know how to do this) do not give them the rule of the universe.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 19:22

An elf between death but victory and retreat without profit will always prefer retreat. Elven honor means a lot, of course, but only among other elves. They don't care about the opinion of humans/dwarves/whatever.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 19:22

They have a 30+ level upgrade system. For a lot of classes. So they have a pumping machine, they have it.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 19:24

It's just that above the mentioned 30+ everything becomes too individual and even the most comprehensive knowledge base can help at the very least, but no more than that. The rest is up to you.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 19:24

Elves are monstrously strong individually. Seriously, as I've said many times before. Level 30+ is the minimum that these guys reach, simply because those who haven't reached it won't be allowed out of their woods. That said, a 30+ elf is more likely to beat a 30+ human of equal level and class, and won't lose to two.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 19:47

But the super elite of humans and elves... It's almost the other way around.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 19:50

What is a level 50+ elf?

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 19:50

This is a very long-lived individual with tremendous experience and skills. Exactly skills. Where a human would be great master at swords and heavy armor, this elf would be great master at spears, swords, bows, hand-to-hand combat, daggers, and a dozen other lines.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 19:52

Does that make it stronger than a human being? More variable, yes. Gives it the ability to choose the right weapon, yes.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 19:52

But the skill is the same, or even higher for a human. He has always worked with only one weapon, and therefore the skill may be higher.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 19:53

An elf can afford to spend under two and a half decades mastering a new weapon. A human cannot.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 19:53

Characteristics - elves have a standard cap of 25, compared to humans' 10. There are some individuals who are born with special titles, like "Genius" or "Great Dodger". Such individuals can have a limit of free development up to 40 points, or each point of dexterity will give two points if you put in free points at once.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 19:56

But.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 19:56

It is equally likely that such a unicum could be born both among humans and elves. But there are few elves and many humans - compare the odds.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 19:57

Besides, human nobles with a good heredity and eugenic program can also have a cap of 25. Above that is extremely rare, but 25 happens. And Geniuses from birth, we remember them. Humans have more of them, for there is more population of humans.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 19:58

Class Skills.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 19:58

Some would say that over centuries of life, it's easier for elves to pump up abilities by free pumping, just like MC. I'll ask you to remember...at least the chapter where Kostya was almost dissolved by The Shadow, and before that by Dream, and before that by The Shadow. Do you see a pattern? After the primary pumping of the first rank, which also, I note, can be risky to health, such a pumping becomes even MORE DANGEROUS.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 19:59

If you pump up by putting in points, the System does everything for you, preventing the Realm (Shadow, Dream, Sky, Edge, Void, Flame, Who-knows-what) from having a deadly effect. That is, you will feel something, which will allow you to reveal new facets of your power, but it will be calm and safe.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 20:01

If you pump up without investing, then EVERY time will be a mortal risk, where your soul can be turned inside out and sewn back into something else. And that can still be considered luck!

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 20:02

Would a short-lived and adventurous man risk such a fate? Unlikely, but still possible. There's hardly anyone like Kostya with his stupid "economy" of improvement points, but some progress is being made, even if it stops after a certain point, beyond which it's dangerous to step.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 20:03

Would an elf risk his soul?

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 20:03

No way.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 20:03

And combat experience. An elf would not go into trouble without full confidence in the possibility of retreat. It is difficult to compare it with people who, because of their indifferent attitude to their own lives (in comparison, of course) are ready to go into the thick of it for the sake of rewards and benefits.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 20:08

If elves have MULTIPLE times more experience fighting a normal enemy, then humans 50+ have much more experience in mortal danger. Even if their lethality is higher and their life is shorter. There are exceptions among the Eared Ones that would give a head start even to the worst risk-takers among humans, but these are isolated cases.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 20:09

So it turns out that eared ones have a superiority in variation and life experience, but humans are still stronger both in terms of class pumping and the number of super-elites.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 20:10

One-on-one humans 50+ will probably be stronger than an elf of the same level. It won't take out two, but one on one is stronger. On the other hand, elves are always overprotective, and before they rush into battle they will try to weaken the enemy and pick the perfect team to confront him. Several groups of mercenaries to exhaust, some cunning poison, artifacts, potions, and a team attack at last!

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 20:11

That's why they don't like elves because you won't see a "fair fight, chest to chest" from them unless you corner them. And that's not the only reason they're disliked.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 20:12

Q: Long life and reason are good reasons for the most rampant hedonism.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 20:13

A: They can give a lot of people a head start in terms of all kinds of kamasutras. It's just that humans and other short-eared people don't know that. But the morals there are quite liberal and they're quite relaxed about simple intimacy.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 20:14

Q: And as for the real elves, their attitude to human males, I'm afraid, is much more adequately described in the same Avada story "The Last Adventure".

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 20:16

A: If you put this story on the world of "Uncalled," there are a few points that make a slight difference.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 20:16

1. elves are non-confrontational to the max. A long life has taught them that the best fight is the one that didn't happen. They are the coolest diplomats in the world, preferring never to fight. Their favorite tactic is to make everyone fight with each other and take an observant position as an umpire.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 20:19

They don't like to kill, that's true, but alas, it's the killing (and the targeted killing) that is their favorite method of solving conflicts that cannot be solved by diplomacy. Those who spill the blood of stars die.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 20:19

Not because elves are evil (although the cutting off of eternity is one of those things that scares them to no end, forcing them to fight for their lives), but to leave a "don't mess with us" message.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 20:20

All the stories about devious ways to deal with an abuser are the result of the big-eared ones being scared. And they make the others afraid of themselves, so that they themselves would not be so afraid.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 20:20

2. Elves are proud. They have every reason to be - they have the longest life span and an extremely high MEDIUM level of the race (albeit with a small number of 50+ elites). They have extremely advanced sciences, they know how to educate and train their young, and all that.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 20:21

A practice honed over the centuries to raise the level from 1 to 30. Half a hundred years and the recruit is ready. Plus the skills - without a master at weapons and/or bows, it's best not to even try to leave the forest. They won't let you out.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 20:21

They are also snobs and racists. To them, people are monkeys with grenades. It's not even about appearances, it's about how easy it is for humans to kill their own fellow human beings. Compared to the rest of the inhabitants of Alurei, the elves aren't the biggest scoundrels. At least they value each other's lives, unlike humans.

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 20:22

An elf will kill another elf only in the most unbelievable cases. Even if his old enemy and rival get in trouble, he will forget everything and go to save him. Then embarrass him, put up a debt and all that, but will save his eternity

Camrad_RIP 29.11.22 в 20:23

People kill each other for the sake of entertainment. This is confusing, causing instinctive rejection on all levels.
