Unbalanced, perhaps not entirely due to SR though
Namely, I'm eyeing those stats, overall +2... but more importantly, a -4 in something is not as important as a +4 in something (and in this case, it's a +6) so I'm wary of that. That along isn't LA 1 worthy but it pushes things up there. (EDIT: Oh, and the +4 saves vs spells, which is "saves vs most things", which is huge).
On SR, it's unbalanced moreso that over or underpowered. At early levels its overpowered... a 50% miss chance is usually 10 + your HD, so 11 to a 1st level character. I often stick a 14 in Con, and more in high level games. Especially if my gimmick is SR and/or Con, you could start out with as much as an 18... that is a 15% chance a spell will go through at level 1 against an equal level caster.
But then it doesn't scale, and by the time you hit levels 4-8, its become normal, then quickly outpaced, until it may as well not be there.
Tell me, would you rather be stronger and go for LA 1 or weaker and go for LA 0? Depending on your goal, I have different advice on how to proceed. -- Eiji-kun 06:44, 23 June 2012 (UTC)
