    Default Halfling run needs some love

    Is it just me or when halflings run they appear to be hunchbacked with a lame left arm?

    I rolled up one of maddong's Hafling Medic builds, but when I'm running around she looks so pathetic I don't think I can play her much longer.

    I'll take the human dainty walk over this...
    Code:
     Sil - Human Paladin 14              Lava Divers           Tad - Drow Wizard 14
     Semolina - Elf Rog 13/Ftr 1             on              Rava - Drow Sorceror 7
     Riddikulus - Human Cleric 14          Khyber         Clamor - Warforged Barb 7
     Durum - Dwarf Ftr 10/Pal 3/Rng 1                Ridd - Dwarf Ftr 6/Rog 2/Pal 2

    LMAO, yeah it took a while for me to get used to Del looking like a chimpanzee when she runs. Sucks too, cause otherwise she's so cute. I don't know who was responsible for the animation on the halfling running, but they need to be drug outside and shot ( j/k of course, would think that goes without saying, but with some of the peeps here....better put it in there ).

    Yes it is unfortunate that they look like quazimoto running around made a hafling ranger and its just sad to watch him run, well maybe that will help in fights so that the mobs are to busy laughing to attack.

    You beat me to it - was gonna say that's where their AC bonus vs. big stuff comes from.

    Thats how they get there +1 to AC. It is actually a -1 to the enemys to hit rather then an AC boost. Every one is so busy laughing at them that they have a harder time hitting halflings.

    Default Halflings can dance, though

    I mean, it's not like they can't move, with their dex bonus and awesome halfling male dance (not referring to dance2)
    How about a little revision to that run...: )

    Default Not as bad as Drow!

    Well at least its not the faerie-prancing drow run....I had to delete mine after seeing that! If I ever do roll another it absolutely positively can only be female.

    I much prefer the hunchbacked run of the Halfling over the Dwarf waddling shuffle that passes as a run in this game or the Human run.

    Besides Halflings make awesome builds even as a str based fighter and my little sorcerer turns more than one head when she clears a quest for the party. ^_^

    Default Help indeed

    I have said they look like the flying monkeys from the wizard of oz.

    It seems that the graphic is bad because the arms are slightly misproportioned and they do not truly swing when they run as other races do.
