Basically heres my dilemma, I'm rolling a shammy on red, most discussions about Shaman race proclaim that Ogres are the very best due to their fronal stun immunity (stated mostly through the prism that one can solo high end mobs like lodi easier, which idk if thats something people will be doing on red), a fact I accept. Now, I understand that AoNs are important in the end-game PvP here on red due to their ability to remove ones nameplate. Its my understanding that trolls and iksars retain their regeneration while under skeleton illusion, but ogres possibly lose their sole biggest racial advantage.

I'm abandoning blue. The raid scene is terrible. I don't care about PvE ability as much as what racial is more marginally effective in PvP in my exodus. With that said, thats why I'm asking about ogres and AONs, if ogres get neutered as a skeleton (or as a bear in velious? any guidance on that would be appreciated) I'd probably roll something else, like a troll (5 fr ftw) or iksar (no bash, no jbb).

People say regen is useless when you get torpor, but I'm not sure if that statement is blue logic or not, given the fact that torpor snares your ass.
