All that's worth noting here is gnomes and Halflings are never the best race for anyone to play ever.

Should just remove those races from game.

Name a single high MR non-rootable non-kitable mob a shaman will be soloing either now or in Velious. Hint: there are none.

[Stonecrush]

Cleric - Gnome.
Best racial Trade Skill come Velious. Able to wear robes, able to wear Brell armor...
Goggles?
Not a lot of downsides.

Shamans - I like Ogre shamans, played one on Live with my trio.
Honestly any race gets the job done solo.

Necromancers - Iksar. Fear is originated from Cazic Thule, oh and that regen is nice. Unless you're a root rotter.

Magician - Gnome

Warrior - I went Ogre back in 04. He looks mean and Rallos did make the Ogres.

Rogues - insert any race, one size fits all.

Monks - Iksar unless you want to be a human, wait you are one already. Go take some Taekwondo classes.

Druids - Play whatever, it doesn't matter. (if you roll human, try LARPing. They did it in a movie and it looked cool.)

Paladins - Dwarf. Maybe an Erudite to break the trend.

SK - Ogre but remember CazicThule is calling.

Bard - Let someone else swarm the OverThere. Half Elf?

Rangers - Someone has to buff the rogues. Maybe a elf of some kind. (Legolas in some other strange fashion.) Don't be a human, don't be that guy.
Lots of Dirt naps.

That's all for now.

there's a strong case to be made for Halfling Warriors. crazy high DEX, the ability to sneak pull, and the ability to hide? why did i go barb again?

Shaman: Troll

The same 2-3 people are always here talking up ogre stun immunity for shaman, but they don't know what they're doing. They are the kind of shaman that probably still uses JBB click spam at level 60.

Am a troll shaman, and shit i still JBB click spam... I solo the spore king once i get that bitch slowed and dmg it down with JBB then dot him up at 30%.. shit is cake

Everyone who thinks you can max stamina without sacrificing raw hp/resists/other important stuff as an elf warrior is off their nut.

I cheat and use STA potions when things get serious. If you look at http://wiki.project1999.com/Magelo_Blue:Sakuragi you can see I'm actually skimping on a number of good items (Azure Ring, NoS, SBC) just like an Ogre would because I'm stamina capped with the potion.

your welcome

So edgy.

While I believe people should play the race that they think is coolest, this thread is about objective min/maxing.
