Hi everyone,
This is just another "chuck an idea out" thread to get other perspectives on it.
An idea I like for 5e races is to have all races have +1 to their relevant stat, but the stat they would have added +2 to they can raise to 22 (and boosts like the Barbarian capstone would then go to 26).
My thought for the Orc is that they keep the -2 (which I may just make a stat cap of 18), and they can raise both Str and Con to 22.
I know stat caps are not supposed to be a thing in 5e, but I feel like it's a logical consequence in how I treat +2s. For kobolds, I would probably do the boost to Dex and Charisma.
This makes them the more reckless attacker, with the Half Orc Relentless being a "modification" of the raw fortitude of the Orc. Not sure what to think of aggressive vs. Savage attacker, as I have my books lent out, so I cannot check wording on things.
I would appreciate any thoughts you may have.
