Hey y'all, so I am planning on rolling an Ogre Shaman however the starting area and plat prospects are pretty low. Been thinking about rolling a Barbarian to start and then transferring items to the Ogre at lvl 14. The idea is:

Level to 14 in Blackburrow. Access to gnoll fangs, good newbie quests, quest bags, clickie neck for that newbie hammer. Seems like it would be decently fast to get to 14. Once I get bind and stuff, run to Feerrott area and transfer the items, extra spells, etc to the Ogre.

Does this make any sense? Or should I just roll Ogre and slog through the first levels with a rusty mace and netted gear? What do you guys think?

First of all I have checked and the quest for the neck item that clicks Hammer of Flattening is not in Green.
Secondly you can't transfer gnoll fangs, they are no drop.
Third of all if you are referring to the quest bags for gathering fungus and Ice Goblin Necklaces, they are no drop as well.
Just start an Ogre
