Race
While I know in later expansions racial differences basically became negligible, what about in Classic/Kunark (ignore Velious)? I am contemplating either a Dwarven or Half-Elf Rogue. Both have precedence in my mind, but the Dwarf has much better stats for a Rogue than a Half-Elf. I like leveling in Gfay, but Dwarf is close enough that the run is no big deal.
Do starting stats matter in Classic/Kunark? Or by time you get through Kunark even are starting stats basically a wash? | ||

You'll be fine whichever you pick. Main objective for a rogue is to hit max strength, which means the highest atk rating.
Work for about 180-185 str and the shaman str buffs will do the rest. Dwarf or gnome, you'll hit it one way or another. I went half elf for mine, can't bear to "leg stab" on my screen lol | ||

hero bracer is nice to have, cheap... dwarves can't wear it :/
http://wiki.project1999.com/Hero_Bracers Can't think of many other decent str pieces that are racially limited (beyond iksars which don't count in this case) [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] | ||

So is a 180-185 Str something that is obtainable in Classic/Kunark (again, no Velious).

yes it is. IIRC Str is not that hard of a stat to stack. Esp when it is by a wide margin your main stat.

I'd say starting stats make a "small but noticeable" difference overall, again moreso with something like gnome vs. ogre warrior or gnome vs. high elf cleric, and less so with any rogue or bard, etc. | |||
