Best ench race?

[Tushy_master]

Thinking of rolling an ench on green, never played one before.

What race should I roll? High elf is probably the best state wise right?

gnome is cool for wall vision + shrink without needing to illusion yourself. tinkering is neat too.

dark elf is cool for ultravision + hide.

high elf is the best from a straight stat perspective but doesnt get the perks of the above 2.

human is neat because it gets some extra carry weight. the extra stam doesnt hurt either but int caster hp return from stam is kinda bad.

none of the races are a bad choice and if you have any aesthetic preference (you can always illusion, but its removed on zone and can be annoying to upkeep etc) or care about hide / tinkering / vision i'd personally let that be the deciding factor.

What is the best option for when you log in before casting illusions / when illusion unexpectedly drops?

Human. cha is easy to come by. tashes are 90% of charming. you have a handful of spells for vision. str/stam is a huge bonus

I would think dark elf. Ultravision without illusion or spell buff. Hide for a decent chance to instant break charm if you don't have a goblin ring. Though, I went high elf because I'm a freak and wanted the cultural armor.

WC cap, which they can all use.

Stats won't matter once you get gear.

DE is #1. Going zone to zone you keep ultravision. You can hide and stay invis indefinitely. This is very useful in areas without see invis if you need to AFK.

It doesn't matter
Hide to break charm is trash, ultravision is cool though
Erudite or high elf if you care about stats, gnome has the best racial/fashion.
Humans pretty rare and good stats

I have a 55 enc on blue and he’s a high elf.


First off, I’m constantly in my Neriad shawl elemental illusion so having to reapply illusion isn’t that big of a deal considering I think it’s a 30 minute buff.

I wouldn’t pick gnome for that reason.

I’ve never played dark elf but I’ve heard the hide to break charm is trash.


I would go high elf for the extra cha and once you cap it then you can replace cha gear for int or hp gear.

I’m going to be starting a enc on green as well soon… leveling buddies?

Thanks for all the great responses.

Gnome or dark elf sounds nice since, contrary to what I was lead to believe back on live, starting race stats aren't that big a deal right?

Ultravision and hide would be super useful but I'm leaning towards gnome because I saw one recently and who looked so cool in shining metallic robes and a scepter and that's all that really matters right??

I like playing unique/rare race/class combos when I can, so human is tempting but I played a human cleric on live and human ranger on blue.

Also what would you guys say are the most common races for chanter?

@Gwilson21 what's the benefit of Neriad shawl elemental illusion? And sure let's group up, my play time may be limited though.

Human technically bis? 2nd best cha but highest sta.
