i dunno who keeps saying that a lot of faction is needed for playing ikky here, because that's not the case. iksar faction is not quite right. with zero faction work i was able to walk into neriak at level 15 on my monk, to the bank, even peeked inside third gate.

not complaining, bad faction sucks, but it still shouldn't be like that because it's not classic.

True. My Iksar Warrior was KOS everywhere in old world back on live-

Also regarding the JBB...

There are many times in the life of a shaman (in fact, more often than not) when you will be low mana - despite the ability to cannibalize. At these times, both solo and grouped, the JBB can be a wonderful thing to have.

Is this the biggest drawback to choosing an Iksar? Hard to say. I think it depends upon the person. It is however a drawback, no matter how much some people would like to downplay it. Is a JBB gonna make or break game play? Absolutely not.

Also should be mentioned that much of the +wis gear in game now is not usable by iksar, including GEB's.

JBB is the big issue. Really alot of your "endgame" gear now comes from drops out of KC (until the planes revamps), which sucks.
