Is there a drawback to converting my crafter to Gargoyle?

She is a human now. Will converting her to a gargoyle hurt her mining or other crafting skills? I would like for her to be an artificer so a gargoyle seems the best race

You lose the 20 points in all the skills you dont have anything in for one.

You'll lose the strong back and workhorse racial abilities, meaning you won't be able to carry as much weight and you'll get one less ore and log when in Tram, and 2 less logs in fel, as well as less hides when you kill a creature.

The other thing to note is that gargoyles can't ride mounts - although there are few situations where "have" to ride a beetle, some people are just used to doing it.

In order to get any kind of speed out of a pet that's following, you have to train it up to 125 dex or it's follow speed is really slow.

You know a garg is going to be really excellent at standing in one spot and imbuing, other than that I don't know. I seriously doubt there's going to be a garg pvp gank squad, or people are going to get outdamaged at the champ spawns.

Flying is nice. Flying back and forth from the bank to the inn to the stable, but that should be over soon. Then, you get the standing and imbuing again.

Actually, like there are special boots to allow humans to ride a Cu-Sidhe, it would be nice to have special boots for Gargoyles to at least be able to ride a pack beetle.

You can't wear whatever you are wearing now. I had to make a new lrc suit also, but supposedly gargoyles are master craftsmen. I have yet to determine what this does, but I'm hoping the inconvenience of parking my beetle is worth it.

Tell me about it, LOL I actually deleted an old crafter char I had that only had alchemy, Inscription and magery on here. I soulstoned the skills and then I made a garg so I could start with 50/50 Imbuing and Myst. I tryed to put the other chars lrc on her and ugh dont work. LOL You can convert some stuff but not all. You have to make it ect. LOL
