And do you know this for a fact? Or just hearsay (the faction thing, you're right the Tunare reward is a Halo)

I've had 0 issues in Neriak, Oggok and Grobb using the correct illusion and faction spell. Haven't bothered with Cabilis because it's no where close to anything.

Could bank, buy the necessities and do the epic quest pieces required without any invis or aggro.

yea but after you zone out all the npc's snicker about how you look like a frail 90 year old man

High Elf for the CHA if you can tolerate how awful they look(yes illusions, bla bla bla, but you will be looking at your cha for a long time so you may aswell like how it looks). I did Dark elf for hide. No its not reliable, but it is a great tool to go afk with with(invis fades) or try and break charm instanly instead of casting spell that takes time.

All enchanters should also be agnostic unless you are into some kinky roleplaying. It will allow you to enter all cities(almost) with illusions and not have to worry about your God getting you killed.

ironic how the ugliest character model has the highest charisma..

I also assume that HEF arnt a very funny group of people..

I just dont understand why they have highest cha.

unless draping your city in gold is all it takes.

Ok, so if you want to pick the "best" race for a certain class, the easiest way is to add up the stats that matter. Erudite 117 int + 80 cha = 197. High elf 102 int + 90 cha = 192. Erudite also has higher Sta and higher str (let's gave it, encumbered sucks). Even if you feel like you absolutely have to get to 75 agi with your starting allotment (you don't), they still have equal int/cha plus more Sta and str. Go Erudite.

In the end it seems to be min/max vs RP/personal asthetics. I like my DE, he's just cool with an innate 80s mullet. Checkmate to all other arguments

Go human! Be that special enchanter. You won't see any other human enchanter in your career, i promise.

INT and STA are not as important on an Enchanter as CHA. I would not add those stats up. The only thing to add is CHA + starting points.

so undesirable no one even considers it when they look at the races an enchanter can be.
