Look up any screens of the bixie event in EC tunnel if you don't think aoeing 100 mobs at a time was a thing the game supported in 2001 genius. Literal GM event that involved the very thing I need screens for you to believe. Can you prove with a screenshot you ever actually played this game before p99 or live PoP?
So basically you have no proof? k.

Yes, Ogres are about the best warriors, and like you said are hated by most. But Trolls are despised to an even greater extent. The Slam ability is a huge asset, thier big size however, is a dungeon nightmare, so you get to buy plenty of shrink potions, or make real nice with shammies.

Trolls have higher AGI dex, + regen (and the manual is wrong when it says they have ultra vision, they don't) While it is true that the regen is negligible later on, it will make the first 10 or so levels a bit easier. If you want to make a good warrior thats liked a bit better, Barbs are a good choice, they still get slam (im not sure about the slam defense) and are fairly strong. In a list if best to worst, IMHO it would go:

Ogre
Troll
Barbarian
Dwarf
Half Elf
Wood Elf
Half Elf
Iksar
Human
Dark Elf
Halfling
Gnome (the wussies of the fighter world, without good gear they can barely carry thier armor.)

If you decide on an ogre, get ready to hear "move yer fat butt" a lot. And roleplay.. Ogres=Roleplayers

Heh you had me going to my old eq screenshot archive, and while it's not a definive proof...

[Ha i was there during the green mist on live](http://i.imgur.com/Us28RoQ.png)

[Remember him ?](http://imgur.com/a/l9Cq1), the second one shows that i was on a RTC connexion at this time (and with Velious UI). I'm wondering if devs made it to the point of replicating classic bugs [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

And from the very same screenshot archive [we have a playable human](http://i.imgur.com/2e39Rs5.png), yeepee ! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I love how dark things are.

I'm kind of sad that we don't have to deal with things like lack of night vision and so forth. I feel like it would really add ambiance and stuff. Often the 'look and feel' is as important as correct content.
