Returning player looking for advice

[Pope Hat]

For SK I really like Ogre. They have amazing starting stats and the frontal stun immunity can be very useful when you get FD and need to get that feign off when you have 5 mobs beating on you. DE stats are miserable. Make sure you are at 75 AGi at a minimum and put the rest of your points into INT (if you don't want to do that it's fine, just don't put any into str/sta). That set of banded won't fit you, though =/

Thanks for the reply! I was initially thinking Human, so the armor would still fit, but as I was looking at the stats, it seems like it would be hard to argue with the Ogre. Esp if I find myself tanking in a group at some point, having frontal stun immunity and 50 more sta seem like big plusses! and since I'm already going to be hated everywhere, might as well go for broke [You must be logged in to view images.

In time, your gear will offset many shortcommings you have at the moment.

If you want to min/max, Ogre is probably the best race. But you are also huge and sometimes wil have problems to move around in dungeons. So you should have some ant potions or a shaman with you [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

For fashion questing, many consider Dark Elfs superior. There are alot of cheap +Str items you can buy in EC tunnel.

Ultimately, you should play whatever suits you best.
