Ok, you may make your point: Which creatures can the Ogre Shaman solo that Shamans of other races are wholly incapable of soloing?

I'm actually curious because I know of none and maybe you know something I don't. I know of plenty of cases where the ogre has a somewhat easier time of things, but in all such cases the other races can ultimately get the job done, too.

How about simply being able to CC 5-6 blue mobs at once in a dungeon-like setting? Say you turn a corner and 5 mobs social. What do you do, hotshot? What do you do? You die if you're not an Ogre, that's what.

I hope that's sarcasm, because I find it pretty sad how many people make themselves unhappy by imagining that numbers == fun.

Just don't make a human warrior, that's something a complete noob would do. Say, and make him worship Innoruuk too. I bet no raid guild would ever let you in.

OP has returned! Sorry, I went to a renaissance festival in MN.

Obviously people have their differing opinions on this topic, and 7 pages later I deem it was worth posting! I'm surprised only 2 or 3 people directed their comments at me and actually discussed the topic for once, what a nice community <3

Why would anyone play a Human Monk vs Iksar Monk? Whether they are good reasons or not, I like the way a Human Monk looks. I like that I am not kos everywhere. I do not like most Kunark zones. I like being unique. I like not having a race exp penalty. Lastly, I started my Human Monk before Kunark was released.

Maybe you like the starting city better. Maybe you can level faster not being KoS in the places you enjoy hunting. There are a bunch of reasons to play certain classes. I just play what I enjoy and like to play. I don't really care what specific race happens to have one ability that might make him better in a duel, or better in a certain areas of the game.

Doesn't all the racial stuff get wiped out after Velious anyways? Or was it after Luclin they decided to take racial bonus' out of the game?

Racial penalties remained until 2006 (Serpent's Spine expansion).

Unique? Unique!? Really??? As far as I can tell, the only two race/class combos on this server that outnumber human monk twink are iksar monk twink and wood-elf druid pharmer. Cool joke there, tell us another one.

Ogre = fun
Wood Elf = fun

This is all.
