Iksar shaman
 

What is the primary drawback if I chose Iksar?

Don't care about frontal stun immunity.

cannot use the Jaundiced Bone Bracer

Must spend endless hours grinding faction.

too scaley to ride your wolf pet

The primary drawback is that you'll be awesome.

Faction grind is optional correct?

I started eq when pop was released. I don't recall ever focusing on faction much.

mmm optional in the sense that you'll obviously be able to invis through KoS cities. however, you're gonna need a bank outside of Cabilis eventually.

Ah, I see. Thanks for the info!

Time to google Iksar faction guides!

Aye, future banking days in Thurgadin ;)

the JBB is the big one. i played an iksar sham on live and regretted it the entire time.

Also bear in mind you can't wear planar armor until mid/late velious when hate is revamped.
