TODO: Investigate missing racial spells for Humans and Dwarfs. #538

Closed GrenderG closed 2 years ago

GrenderG commented 2 years ago

Describe what needs to be implemented or enhanced According to their character creation screen, Humans should have "Bonus skill points" and Dwarfs are "Natural Miners". Investigation is needed to determine if any spell exists matching these descriptions.

Expected end result If appropriate, these spells should be added to playercreateinfo_spell.

The Alpha character creation screen lists the following racials for the dwarf:

Treasure finding Natural miners Resistant to cold magic

While treasure finding and bonus frost resistance made it into the final game, being a natural miner (most likely meaning a plus to the Mining profession) was never given to the dwarves. Treasure finding was later axed in Cataclysm, but dwarves still have a Frost Resistance racial.

(My emphasis).


The Alpha character creation screen lists the following racial for the human:

Bonus skill points

This racial trait never made it into the final game, and it's unknown whether it means talent points, or skill points for a profession.

(My emphasis).

Really good find, this can be closed now! I archived that page https://web.archive.org/web/20220823110857/https://www.deviantart.com/daxx-lorenzo/journal/The-Lannsirad-Project-MMORPG-Planning-803855756 just in case.
