I'm currently a level 59 DE SK.
My thoughts concerning this mess:
1. Go with what you will enjoy and what will bring you happiness.
2. Getting stunned is extremely annoying. During raid situations if I am trying to spam a spell (to gain aggro) and can't because I'm stunned, well, that's rather annoying.
3. Mana pool is important for soloing. However, the higher you get the more chances you'll have at acquiring pieces that will really help your mana. For example the mithril mask 5ac 7int 7wis off of Magi Roykl and then Tranix's collar thing that provides 13int. Also a lot of SK Sky items have int on them.
4. I am currently around 120 str unbuffed... this is the lowest it has been in awhile. This reflects gear choice though (using BE over Umbral for improved AC). Yes, it does get annoying being easily encumbered but there are plenty of weight reduction bags out there.
5. Stamina. This is important. Right now fully raid buffed I am around 4200-4300hp depending on gear. Ogre warriors I think top out at around 5k hps. Whatever race you do choose I suggest dumping a considerable portion of your starting points into STA.
6. Big races cannot use the 20ac 10 to all resists shoulders from The Hole.
7. Big races cannot use the 25ac 5sta 100hp Ashenbone Shield from Hate.
8. ?
