How noticable is the Ogre stun resist?

[Vaye]

Let me preface this by saying I hate ogres and I'll never play one because they're disgusting. That said, if you're a min/maxer there's simply no other choice. Yes, FSI is very noticeable and here's why...

As a warrior your job is to hold agro. If you are wasting precious seconds getting stunned, you're falling behind on the hate list because not being able to hit the mob means your weapons aren't proccing. Thus a non-ogre simply won't be able to hold agro as well. That might not seem like a big deal in your casual leveling groups, but on raid encounters, it matters bigtime.

Another poster above gave examples of how important it is for shaman. FSI is far more valuable than a little bit of regen. When you've got Torpor, racial regen and even fungi is so insignificant, and besides that when you're taking more rounds of attacks from mobs from having to recast after getting stunned, that extra regen goes out the window as far as I'm concerned. As was already said, an ogre can corner themselves with several mobs beating on them and reliably gate, but getting out alive in that situation on any other race takes considerable luck.

So yeah, if you can deal with the way ya look as an ogre, it's the obvious choice for every class they can be. FSI is that strong. The people saying it doesn't matter don't know what they're talking about. Can you still enjoy the game without it? Of course. You'll just never be as powerful as ogres are.
