Ogre is a Noob Trap

[sajbert]

Without Guise or AoN Ogre is a pain, even with Shrink Pots. Shaman can arguably get away but even in outdoor zones Ogre size sucks.

Stats are good, capping stats even in velious isn’t easy and getting to 60 is a looong road for the average player. That said, troll stats aren’t bad either and size is much easier to deal with and unlikr iksar has no plate restrictions and isn’t hated literally everywhere.

FSI is good but so is regen. As such I dare say noobs shouldn’t go Ogres if it isn’t what they think is coolest.
