Ogre SK without, you know, looking like one?
 

Sorry if this is more of a gameplay question, but there isn't a proper gameplay forum for our server so...

I want to make an Ogre SK because I'm a noob if I don't pick Ogre as an SK. That said, I freakin' hate how Ogres look, both in classic and luclin models. Are there any classic-obtainable illusion items that an Ogre SK could use (outside of the original Guise, which I know is now gone for good)?

Amulet of Necropotence but that is already rare and expensive I think.

Roll Troll

you can eventually get skeleton illusion spell in kunark if you don't mind the wait. Dropped in graveyard/bridge in chardok I think.

Wouldn't frontal stun immunity be a superior racial in the long run? And +13 additional base stam. And not being 20 points in the hole for fire resist.

frontal stun, if im not mistaken, does not currently work on p99

You have to add multiple factors. the immunity of stun from the front is a really nice feature. But with the dex of 70, you are more likely to be hit more often, and miss your hits. Its a trade off.

Dex has nothing to do with hit rate / avoidance.

Dark Elves, Trolls, and Humans are all base 75 DEX. Gnomes are 85. So we're talking a 5 point split in exchange for 30-40 extra STA and STR.

The big tradeoffs are INT and (lol) CHA.

That and being butt-ugly and getting an extra 20% xp penalty on top of the 40% knight penalty, of course.

*cough*troll*cough* :p
