So, I was thinking that after a mission chain of some sort you could unlock race hybrids. "Hybrid" would become a profession available to all races and allows you to get the boost from another race as your profession. Eg. Say I chose Konqul Hybrid (Vygoid) I get: +20% Attack +20% Research This would allow more customization, and create some great synergies: Konqul Lazuli Lazuli Aerlen Vygoid Kronyn Mylarai Taltherian Konqul Aerlen Drannik Konqul |

because racial bonuses are so powerful, the 'hybrid' race that takes the place of the profession would have to have their reward cut in half. for example, if i'm an Inergon Konqul- +10% energy, +10% attack Konqul Inergon- +20% attack, +5% energy otherwise EVERYONE would choose this profession... but overall this is a good idea. may be a good specialty profession after we finish the Xecti Missions. Instead of getting ANOTHER race, we can unlock the hybrid and colonist professions (colonist was stated in a different thread) EDIT: also, i think races with abilities as their racial specialty should not be able to be secondary hybrids. as you stated, people would just be taltherian mylarai. potential for infinite credits and infinite artifacts. I understand the abilities would still share a timer, but still... percentage based racial bonuses should be the only secondary racial hybrids available. so you can still pull off stuff like Kronyn Konqul, Mylarai Human, Taltherian Inergon, Genetaar Aerlen, but having two special abilities as a profession choice seems op to me... |

perhaps.... instead of promoting cross species reproduction it should be....: you complete a mission that allows a special form of truce. not with the species but a training center or that species... from now on, a race option would be a mixed crew of the the current race and the awarded one... either way..... I LOVE THIS IDEA!!! - senses new ships >.> |

a sillixx xecti might be interesting |

Post subject: | Re: Race hybrids |
I like this idea though one question would be on base abilities, because what would stop a legion from using all half Aerlen and being able to boost their def by 300% |

Post subject: | Re: Race hybrids |
like Aerlen Lazuli's to cover both defense and hull buffs? maybe a half-breed's race should only count as half |

Fixer profession gives +30% Halved Lazuli gives +25% So, that wouldn't really be worth it as fixer is available to Aerlen. Lazuli Aerlen though. In the examples, I just based it off of full bonuses because I only really thought about the starter races. When you think about it though, Zolazin>Spy Lazuli>Fixer Halving it: Zolazin=Spy Lazuli<Fixer And I think those are the only examples. You can already be Mylarai Miner and Taltherian Excavator, so +10% research on Kronyn/Vygoid wouldn't be overpowered. And yes Howesy, the Konqul/Vygoid was inspired by my legion, which inspired part of my fanfic. |

Human Inergon=a lot of fast-rankers. And I'd very much like to be a Vygoid Konqul, or a Taltherian Lazuli. |

Bluecifer wrote: Human Inergon=a lot of fast-rankers. it depends the way you do it. 10% energy with a 5% xp buff is nice. but then again, you are sacrificing the builder profession for that. so what it really comes down to is are you capable to gain the required mining planets to get the tech that you would install on your ship? or would you stick with a ssb. 10% xp and 5% energy is also nice. but again, you need the resources to manage your upkeep, or will you go ssb. And really, fast ranking is cool, but if you rank too fast you become weak. its all about how you want to play the game. I would be more worried about a konqul/aerlen. And i think the best way to deal with base abilities is since the second race is a 'hybrid' version of that race, it would not count towards ANY base abilities, since officially the profession is hybrid. so you would still have your primary race count, i.e. an aerlen vygoid would count for defense but not research, and a vygoid aerlen would work towards the research bonus, but not towards the defense bonus. Lol, can you imagine a Konqul Drannik? ![]() |

My biggest fear would be a Lazuli Aerlen... that would just be a: "Err, let's just leave him. Not worth the energy..." |

What'd happen with a Kronyn Mylari or something? |

The timers are shared. And it was discussed that only races that give a % boost would be available. |

Drannik Konqul would be OP as hell |
