FSI: constant damage, can facetank 100 mobs never getting stunned, and the biggest advantage of all - Hidden Values™

added bonus: can use cobalt clickies

Clearly the master race is the biggest race when it comes to being a warrior. All the inferior races will have you to believe they do it just as good. They don't.

P.S. We all been in that group where some scrawny, tiny warrior becomes the tank of the group. We all cringe and worry about their tankiness. They leave, and are replaced by a towering, massive OGRE WAR, and instant relief washes over the group. Everyone knows that ogres are superior, no one wants to admit it.

***What are Hidden Values™?

These are hidden stats that do not show up on your character stat page.

• Ogres have higher AC than listed
  
• Ogres hit harder and more often than would be suggested by their stat page
  
• Ogres have innate survival abilities that kick in letting them live on longer when they should have long died in a tough battle

PRO TIP: Ogres have all these hidden values that are not noted by the devs or the stat sheet. To make them appear more balanced, the devs only mention the OGRE FSI as their racial, but many other racial advantages exist for the OGRE.

On end game content it simply doesn't matter. High AC will lower the average damage you take, but it's not about that. It's about the worst case. Who cares that AoW hits for less than a max on the flurry 9/10 times when a cheal is landing literally every second? If you don't have the hp to survive that 1/10 times, you die, and the raid wipes. That simple.

A warrior could tank the aow naked as long as defensive was up and the chain was solid.

oh man what a good laugh

Profound and thought provoking! Interesting perspective! Please share more of your insight with us forumquesters; we thirst for the knowledge you hold captive within that genius mind of yours!

***Clearly a non-ogre here, showing his resentment that his class/race choices are inferior to the ogre.

Y'all bunch of fools...

the obvious choice is GNOME

[Lowako]

does the super minor min max matter? its everquest in 2017. you could make a gnome warrior, dump all your starting stats into wisdom, then roleplay as a Norrathian with a defunct brain and end up tanking AoW as long as you were fully buffed and had solid gear.

The only thing that matters in the end is fashionquest and liking the way your character looks.

Nice.

Do you like regen or frontal stun immunity better? That sounds like the real decision. Any race warrior (except dark elf!) will be useful to a raid if decently geared.
