Iksar do not have enough intelligence in my oppinion. Plus they are even more KOS than other Nekromancers.

This is my best revision with careful consideration.

The problem is your "revisions" aren't necessary, getting an exp bonus doesn't help you at 60. The list was for best race/class combinations. Combinations such as Halfling Rogue and Troll Shaman don't belong on such a list.
.

They do belong on the list if you are pitching this game to a bunch of new players. Halfling Rogues take half the experience to level as a Troll Shadowknight (which is hugely significant when you're talking 400 hours to level FIFTY your first time around), and people from WoW don't know these mechanics.

Also, Troll regeneration + Snare is a viable, situationally superior alternative to Ogre stun resistance for Shaman, especially before level 60 (which approxmiately 2.5 of these 20 friends will ever reach).

Your reasoning that getting an exp bonus doesn't help you at 60 is specious at best.

barbarian warriors can wear either medium or large armor. pretty valuable asset for any new warrior, you have twice as many armor options.

I wish I had ~20 gamer friends who I could convince to actually play this game.

What you're talking about is "a list of possible race/class combinations" which is quite different than the best race/class combinations which I originally posted.

There's nothing "specious" about saying that an exp bonus doesn't help you at level 60. You may want to look up what that word means.

So by "Best" you mean "Best at level 60", which you brought up for 20 people who have never played EQ before, who are just now starting at level 1. Makes a lot of sense compared to the comprehensive list that we so bravely attempted to offer (and your threadbare list is also both incomplete and inaccurate).

Well, truly there is no reason to argue since one of these lists is clearly superior and he is free to use whichever one he wishes, or both.
