The inability to eat food or drink, the fact the Earthen Well Fed buff is lower than standard food buffs, the fact you have to consume, currently, expensive gems for buff, the Racial attack/heal was lackluster, the race wasn’t worth playing. It was definitely not for the competitive.
The little intro was cool, the ability to select your “background program” then selecting your armor and weapon style was a nice touch. Beyond that, it was a mess. I hope they fix the Well Fed / food consumption idea.
Seeing all these threads about them makes me glad I got over the allied races gimmick after BFA. Didn’t bother with the dragon race in DF, and not interested at all with the jewel dwarves. At least my regular dwarf can drink booze and eat normal buff food lol. Dark irons are better anyways imo.
The one cool thing about earthen is that no one will be playing one in 6 months due to the very poorly designed racial ability. So you’ll be unique I guess?
I like the OG dwarf more still. And Stoneform is pretty good still, best thing that exists against rogues. And I hate rogues, broken class to duel or deal with in Arena.
Frost Reist lets you break out from Frost mage spam quicker also. Good racials.
