76 from boon, have I missed something? Without boons, stats of reasonable
status are reachable, as they should be. No skills or spells should be tuned
to somehow 'downtune' boons to make them (seem) not as worthy. I do not
actually even see the reason why some skills have been tuned to reflect the
fact that some people have +54/66 in some stat compared to other people.
They've paid for it for heavens sakes. There are ways to go around the fact
that one doesn't have boons. And if you cannot live without boons, get some,
take a loan from the bank and swing it to bat.org account. If not, do not
live. Or Do not whine atleast.

Sure I'd love 400wis and 1500spmax, but im fine with my rockola 1100, haven't
encountered any mind-numbing problems, yet.

reasonable tuned do not the people. the fact get some, not haven\'t Then there\'s a few boons you just can\'t compete with. Resist any
damage, skill/spellmax, fast metabolism, quick lips, moon improvement,
probably some others..

Those are huge bonuses to a player and you just can\'t get them via
items. You can try to argue this but it\'s quite pointless. A midbie
with 5 boons pretty much equals or exceeds the power of a
few-hundred-megs-more-exp highbie with zero boons. And that highbie with 5
boons is Way More Powerful than the guy without. Fair? No. Should it be? I
don\'t know.

Resist any damage = we have conj spells/eq. Fast meta = we have a races with
fast meta. QL = We have QC eq, and you can get small fast meta from 10 or 0
tps. Moon improvement = you're the first to complain about this almost no
one gets this boon because most people dont' have 7 boons.

with or 0 almost no You can\'t really get 10% resist all from items/spells, and naturally
that 10% stacks with your items/spells (like all other boons).

Fast meta boon totally stacks with racial meta.

Moon impro well, few have it, but the effect is very visible on the ones
that do.

180QC+fastmetarace+fastmetaboon+ql = fast. You can\'t get that without
boons now can you?

Yes, people get by without boons, but it\'s useless to argue that
they\'d be as good as booned people, or even possible for them to be as
good. Statwise that is... brain and concentration naturally adds a LOT to
actual value of a character in party.
