SK Question

[greatdane]

Int doesn't matter a damn thing. You're not a healer or quad-kiter. It makes absolutely no difference whether your mana pool is 1500 or 1700 deep. You'll never spend it all in one place anyway, it'll be completely irrelevant while grouping, and for soloing you spend only a portion of your mana per kill. Whether you have to med after three kills, or after four kills but for 25% longer, has no influence on your leveling speed.

If you expect to solo a lot, troll regen will help you the most. It's actually really good. You won't have very good healing methods as an SK, especially if your health gets so low that you can't safely go around lifetapping mobs. Regen is awesome for soloing, but the troll exp penalty and regen's lack of awesomeness in groups means you should only go troll if you like to solo a lot. Other than that, ogre is best because of the stats and because less interrupts is pretty nice for a casting tank. Personally, I went with human because being 10ft tall and spherical is fucking annoying in any indoor area.
