If you have knowledge about how ogre frontal stun mechanics should work, please reply to the open thread about it http://project1999.org/forums/showthread.php?t=3144

Interesting thread, that. All you ogre experts (is that a contradiction?) please post to the above thread and add your 2 cents so they can get this fixed!

I never played an Ogre, so can't really comment beyond the sales pitch.

Which of these two races would people recommend for a Shadowknight, and why?

Edit...fwiw...
RACE STR STA AGI DEX WIS INT CHA BONUS
Ogre 140 127 70 70 67 70 42 20
Troll 118 114 83 75 60 62 45 20

And there is regen (trolls) or frontal stun immunity (ogres) to consider.

I dont see any reason why you would pick a troll over a ogre?

Ogre: better stats, stun immune, less exp penatlie, look better(imo); where is the reason trolls have higher exp penalties anyway??

hmm Ogre have better stats + stun immune, sounds way better to me than more regen, just my thought.

Assuming frontal stun immunity works or at least will eventually, I'd have to say Ogre. Without that mechanic, troll ftw!

Frontal stun immunity doesn't work atm, but Ogre still is the best choice stat-wise. Looks and other cosmetics are all personal opinion [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Ogre FTW I say!

[Juasquemelol]

Id say troll, regen in classic is pretty much op.

Sounds like there are far fewer Troll SKs, and as far as the xp penalty goes - meh - I actually prefer to level slowly unlike I did in 99-00.

So I am leaning toward Troll.
