The difference is you aren't guaranteed to drop the cast when bashed as an ogre.
Any other race, when sucessfully bashed, stops their cast as if they ducked it. They don't even get to the channeling check. Ogres get to at least attempt the channeling check. And against slowed mobs, channeling isn't really a problem, getting bashed and instantly dropping that reslow-v-resist or 6sec torp cast or 9sec epic click is.
If you're tanking with your flank or ass...that's a different problem, no race selection is going to change that.

He knows what I meant when I described how ogres can get their spells off versus non-ogres.
He has an iksar fetish and just argues for the sake of arguing no matter how many valid and true points people make explaining why ultimately ogres are the master race for shaman with trolls near them at the top.
The fact velious is out doesn't diminish the usefulness of the jaundiced armor clickies, he knows this too.
He mentions how ogres get stunned from the side and back, and I can't think of a time I have ever tried landing a spell on mobs with my backside facing them when on my ogre shaman. Really just a silly response to try to diminish how powerful FSI really is.
Anyway, either class shaman or enchanter is a good choice.
I think enchanters are equal if not more powerful than shamans, and the best part is they won't require the financial investment the shaman will in the end regarding epic and spells.
That being said, if you are min/maxing and pick shaman, go with the ogre you won't regret it.
