Sorry, didnt check the next page :P
Then i dont have to check the info.

So really, if you make the mask, you can pick whatever race and their racial that you need for different situations.

Making the mask itself very OP.

As if infinit lockpicks wasn't already making it difficult to have a party without an undead in it.

I think that the changing mask would fit better as a "new game+" thing, so people can change race whenever they feel like, to get the "perfect" choices.

And then make it so that the undead race you pick, is the only face you can wear (Like undead lizard only wears lizard faces). And really, the undeads looked like they would do fine as long as they are wearing clothes that hide the undead parts. No real need to hide the face behind a mask (if we take you only wear the face of your race).

After watching twitch live it felt like it would take around 1-3hours of playing maybe, before you can make the first level mask, which only is for one race.

So by that i would guess it will maybe take a few hours into the game to be able to build the artifact itself.
But yeah, gaining the racials of whatever race you wear, is way to overkill.
Being able to get better prices when bartering and be able to get different options when talking to NPC's , depending on the race you pick. Is really good enough. Though i guess that would make it so some people dont care about making the artifact, since they would do fine with just one mask or not getting any mask.

So yeah, if i understood it correctly, there is no "need" for the masks at all, just wear good clothes and your good. I really hope there is a very good in game and story reason for being able to build this OP artifact that pretty much forces everyone to have Fade (or whatever the undead origins name was) in the party.
