Best Warrior Race?

Just curious what the best warrior race is? I heard someone say Wood Elf because they get an hp bonus or something? But others say ogre.

Depends, if your going for just straight tanking stats, Ogre by far, + slam + immune to stun. If you dont like being an Ogre / Evil, Dwarf is 2nd best imo. Only 13str 5sta less then a Barb, but they have 20 more dex starting off (90) + they are small so never need to have shrink pots.

You should listen to others, because someone is feeding you lies!

From a min/max standpoint, Ogre, personally I like Iksar or Dwarf

Barbi is compromise between Ogre/Trolls and ... well... midgets.

Being a large race isn't a big deal, shrink pots are 20p a use if you can't bother a shaman for one and there's no shammy in group. Neither is being evil, IMO, can raise FP faction and get solid exp in HPH round 15 (loot scalps), and EC round 8 (same thing) if you want faction with the one really useful good city. There're tons of gypsies out there to vendor with.

Warrior is a class you DO want to min/max, so I highly recommend ogre. As a cleric when I group w/ small-race tanks I sigh a little. I lose mana efficiency on CH.

Half Elves look the best in plate armor, and that's a fact.

And yeah, vanity is how I make all my decisions. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
