So it's really not all that advantageous to play a smelly hobbit.
But the key difference is that a sneaking halfling can trade/bank with KOS mobs (as long as he can stay out of their line of sight), whereas a wood elf would get killed the moment they got close (ie. before they could hide), right? Unless they have a friend invis them, but I'm not sure how helpful that would be given that racial hide only works 1 in every 4 or 5 time, and you can't check whether hide succeeded or not while invis.

Or am I missing something? (Genuine question: I personally never use hide/sneak on my halfling.)
