Cleric race debate

[Nirgon]

Erudite gets tons of free magic resist, great wisdom (not as good as HE but whatever). CT gets see invis clicky helm (works at lvl 10!), a fear mask better than polished mithril mask and can wear robe of azure sky (like human but ... don't go human pal). My first pick.

Dwarf - high str, high sta, high starting magic, great wisdom. 3rd pick.

High elf - highest wisdom, skinny kid in gym class when it comes to armor.

Halfling - uber wisdom also, great stam, xp bonus (my 2nd pick).

Awesome. I'm going to start with a CT Erudite Cleric now!

Any tips for the Paineel area? I'm pretty lost so far and there aren't any other people around.

Most people bug out of Paineel ASAP. The city itself is kind of confusing if you've never been there before, and you are definitely going to need EQAtlas for this.

The beginning area is actually not that bad a place. Lots of mobs in a condensed area means you can hit up a few levels very quickly. Just remember to save space for the Paineel key you'll need to use the Paineel lift.

I don't believe CT is a diety requirement for those items. Hence:

Human follower of Innorruuk. That gives you access to not only the snare clicky necklace, but also the terror/dread/fright forged quest items from Paineel. With well-rounded starting stats and none of those obnoxious evil race travel restrictions.
