    Better than kobold.
    People who think they know everything are a great annoyance to those of us who do.

    Kobold would be a great grinder character if it were given stacking bonuses to loot exceeding chest blessers. It would make a great alt. The challenges the race presents would make for an exciting trade off.

    Maybe make a luck aura on top of a personal effect for it. Or in epics increase the S/S/S random kill drops if kobolds are in your party.

    No shifters? It is one of the main player races from the setting. If there has to be a new race it should be something local.

    "No" to every race request, except maybe Shifters, above.

    Default Dragonborn's why you should place them in DDO?:Reasons and explanations

    So ... I say that already a while that I do not play DDO, more than anything else I am missing several packs and the latest expansion to be able to play the full game, but I always enough Following the forum and ideas of the players itself. ..sapevo that Asimar and Theafling would come to a future update by reading the notes of the manufacturer, but outside of the letter I have always heard of people who wanted comboldi as a playable race ... ok I do not know if 3.5 Ded c 'was a manual where the goblins are inserted as a playable race but i know that in games like Neverwinter Night's 1 and 2 there is a kobold bard named Dekin that in the first NW and also a companion recruitable... leaving this my memory from my point of view it seems to me a little more "appropriate" be included as a playable race the Dragonide and saw that one of the quite famous playable races in Ded for various reasons, the first may be valid paladins and FavoredSoul of being fierce warriors, he has various features racial valid, then why could have several fun features like breathe fire (which can be a racial skill).

    So I prefer to be inserted dragonide that cobold... the kobold see it more as a monster a servant evil rather than a hero, while the dragonide and much better from this point of view, it would be much better.

    And then in my opinion because the turbines would have a lot of very valuable information in order to bring out the dragonide as a playable race, just look these pictures:

    warrior

    The racial ability to spit fire

    a thief female dragonborn

    Dragonborns heroes

    Dragonborns Paladin

    A warrior Female Dragonborn

    as you can see (and fore could possibly be the only problem for the turbines to design the dragonide model) are the parts of the feet and head.
    But even these images you could also make a idea of what could be much more appropriate to have a dragonide breed a race of cobolds.

    In addition here is the description of the breed in the player's manual 3.5 on Dragonborns:

    The Dragonborn have a racial bonus to Strength and Charisma (then, so the fly, should be the delicious paladins or clerics and leaders). They have speed, size and normal vision, like many other breeds; have a bonus to the Intimidate skill and History (which boh, history ... I would put Tenacity anyway ...). Let the "skill characteristics" of this race: to begin with, being humanoid dragons get immediately the power to Firebreathing meeting (which you can also choose attribute and reference feature, choose well!) That in addition to a beautiful effect of "Hey look, I spit acid / ice / lightning / fire / poison", proves to be a great power in case you find yourself in front of a large group of enemies. Moreover, thanks to Legacy Draconic, the value of the healing impulses of a Dragonide is equal to 1/4 of the maximum hit points + your Constitution modifier (for all other races is just 1/4 of the maximum hit points) which is fantastic seen I would see it unlikely that a Dragonide to use chopsticks and sticks from the rear as it can go and wiped out the enemies in the front row brandishing a broadsword three kilometers long. Last but not least, thanks to Furia Dragonide, the few times you'll be bleeding (ie when your hit points fall below half of the maximum hit points) will get a +1 bonus to attack rolls.

    From this we can deduce that they can become as I said great paladins and thieves FavoredSoul but also valid and perhaps even warriors and clerics.

    For this reason they are more inclined to see the dragonborns as a playable race, not only for the Lore and the possibility of class combinations that can have the most ... but why also see it as a kind of icon, symbol Dangeons And Dragon being close relatives (so to speak) of the dragons.

    If you look at the poll results for the next anniversary party over in the official turbine discussions page, you'll see that Dragonborn are clearly winning over Kobolds as a playable race.

    I feel that poll was unfair as it wasn't just Dragonblood vs Kobold Player Characters!

    It was ACTUALLY:

    Dragonblood + Dragon Event
    vs
    Kobold + Kobold Event

    There's a lot of people justifiably angry that low level monsters such as Kobolds {but mainly the likes of Rats, Dogs, Oozes etc.} keep getting put in High Level Content - There's a lot of people who really don't want yet more content where we kill Kobolds!
    Heck the Kobold Player Character Crowd don't want more content where we kill Kobolds!

    Add to this that it's Dungeons & Dragons - We want to Fight Dragons!
    Content with Dragons in it is always going to win vs Content with Kobolds - Mired in Kobolds is one of the best quests in the game and it's not because of the Kobolds!



    I would say that I won't ever play a Dragonborn but I hated the very idea of Warlock being in DDO until I saw Enlightened Spirit so it is possible the Devs could get me to play a Dragonborn {Pity the name Diana is most definitely going to already be taken on every server } but as Race is one thing I don't like changing and I already have way too many characters it will take some doing.
    KOBOLD ON THE OTHER HAND - YAARK IS STILL WAITING TO TR!

    Both had large level adjustments and we're seldom played although I did have a character reincarnated as a ogre magi because the party wanted to try a reincarnate scroll they found in came back disguised and slaughtered everyone and the campaign got rebooted with my character now a powerful NPC
