I will weigh in because I've actually learned a bit from the other threads. Apparently on P99 it is easier for Pallys to hold agro with flash of light or SKs with disease dot than it is for warriors until they get weaps with agro procs, i.e. Obsidian Shard, Yak etc. Warriors are very group dependent while SKs with invis and IVU are more independent.
However, hybrids have a 40% exp penalty which makes them less attractive to groups. Warriors get a small exp bonus so they level faster. Plus, crafted armor quests are easy to do and you shouldn't have any trouble getting someone to help you complete the langseaux quest at low level. Just create a lvl 1 barb and get the sweaty shirt, then find some high levels in WK that will follow the dog to the lvl 20-25 quest NPC and kill it and let you loot the head.
Consult this table to see the xp modifiers for all race class combos:

As you can see, Troll SK's with a combined racial AND class XP penalty require 1.68 times as much xp to level as a baseline combo such as human cleric. Meanwhile a halfling warrior enjoys both a racial and class xp bonus and requires only 0.855 times as much XP to level as a baseline combo.
