Which race of SK has the least amount of hate faction wise

[Snaggles]

When Velious launches eventually it won't matter.

As mentioned being evil as a SK isn't as big of a deal because they are all kinda evil. You get invis at 29 or 20 with a circlet of shadow.

Humans and Erudites are on the lesser hated end. They do have some problems being luke-warm on faction as mentioned. I would roll a Erudite for the stats even if Paineel is a weird starting location. I'm sure he can train in the sk guild of Freeport. Dark Elves has a better starting location and similar stats.

The main reason, IMHO, to avoid the ogre/troll/iksar is the experience penalty. That said I would rather endure faction and grinding Hell to end up with the toon I want. If he doesn't go with his gut he will regret it at some point.

Honestly for most new players a Pally probably makes more sense. Invis and FD open the world though for the evilest races [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.].

Ps: night blind isn't a problem on P99. Likewise the advantage of ultravision isn't really there.
