    so so stupid. so i guess orcs and redguards are suddenly worthless now? why not give bonuses to every race why just imperials?? racism at its finest. yes im playing the race card.

    i was going to pay a sub as soon as the game comes out regardless of all the bugs that are still in the game. but at the second i heard there would be a cash shop, blocked races that you can pay for and the such, i decided not to.

    this game is OBVIOUSLY going to fail as a suscription game! you cannot sell a game with a suscription, make people pay for races, horses and the such for cash, and not add a f2p model.

    the direction of the game is just too obvious.

    and i'm sure that in upcoming updates, there will be siege materials as well as armor and weapons in the cash shop

    Most of the tank races get health and stamina pools and regent. All of which is easily capped, but imperials get double the Max health that orcs get and four times as much as the other races. This means they can invest more points elsewhere when they reach the cap. On top of that, they get a lifetap on melee hits which no one else gets and isn't made redundant by diminishing returns. The argonian healing recieved bonus is also nice, but the lifetap is better for now.

    If I've pre-ordered the Imperial edition do I need to create an Imperial race to purchase the 1g horse or can I create a Breton for example and still purchase the 1g horse?

    I don't know if they are a better race or if those who buy the collectors edition feel good about themselves.

    I know for sure that ZOS feels great taking that extra cash from ppl :)

    Yes you can create any race and still get all of the bonusses on that character...

     

    Not only the horse, but also the abbility to turn every piece of armor intoo an imperial type of armor at will

    Care to explain why you think that? I know they're decent racials from a tanking perspective, but I thought Redguard and Nord were considered statistically "better" since they employ racial bonuses that aren't as easily affected by soft caps. Also, for melee PvP, I've read that Orc comes out better thanks to their sprinting racials and health regen.

    Redguard matches Imperial on max stamina, but the Imperial gets the largest boost to max health of any race, plus their melee passive heals them...very nice for tanks.

    Redguards get a stamina heal in melee but I just don't think that is as good as more healing for a tank.

    Bottom line, Imperials get highest increase to stats possible with any race (+22% --- 10% to stamina and 12% to health) add in the Red Diamond heals and it's all great.
