You obviously don't raid or have raid gear

A non-tanking warrior should NEVER EVER pull aggro over the MT who used mallet clicks on engage. Regardless of how many bash stuns the MT is eating. Unless the non-tanking warrior is too dumb to monitor his procs and swap out weapons accordingly.

I can't think of a single scenario where a warrior has or could pull aggro off a warrior who is using proc weapons unless there is something like a long stun on the MT (Zlandicars bugged proc). If your tanks are regularly pulling aggro from Melee damage on fights with tank swaps either they need to not use aggro weapons or they need to swap them out more often to make sure they don't proc too frequently.

Also there are 4 silencing mobs. Xygoz, Ventani, Tukaarak and Ail the Elder. I can't think of any others in Velious/Kunark. Unless you're going to include the crappy WW dragon trash. Not really a point of arguing race superiority for a very narrow set of mobs. Ventani being the only challenging one among them.

I have been a main raid tank of BDA for over a year.halflings are great. The winner of kunark botb was a hfl war named Eabon and he was a main tank for TMO. The thing keeping you from being number one main tank wi be competing with all the other, more tenured warriors who have raided in their guild for years. Just dedicate your life to p99 and you will achieve what you desire. Good luck padawan

Play what brings you joy. I get my rocks off RPing a halfling badass and executing a clutch sneak tag once in a blue moon. Some ppl love iksars. This is a game for your personal kicks. Not your investment portfolio

This is probably the quote of the week, for my money [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Oh yes, to the OP. Keep in mind that a good race following RZ can still be KOS in good aligned cities. My wood elf warrior is a follower of the Warlord and I learned the hard way that the dwarves are not particularly fond of RZ. I had to kill a bunch of gobby whelps to enter the city safely.

Thank you all for the great advice! I did try to do the Halfling warrior for a bit and while I thought it was cool, I noticed the stuns so much more. I felt that this may be a bigger hindrance than I initially thought, since it was happening more often than I expected and all my argo is off procs and melee. Also, some of you also made a fair point that I got to a level where it may be a big waste if I re-roll. I decided to stay ogre - I hate their looks but I think I'm destined to be one haha.

There is no doubt that ogres are the best

There is no doubt that really it is a game and as has been noted, many of primary raiding tanks are not ogres.

Personally I'd say stick with ogre and enjoy the evil zones in the game that you maybe didn't get to experience on live when you were dumb and were a woodelf rallos zek warrior with maximum wisdom like I was.

Mainly though, 1-40 is a lot of time / played just to throw away. If you re-roll do an enchy or something different.

Go Gnome.

Honestly, if you don't like the way your Ogre looks, then yeah. I'd definitely reroll.

I wouldn't want to be sinking even more time into playing a character that I don't even think looks good.

Not enough value given to sneak in this thread. Halflings are indeed the master warrior race because of sneak. Only draw back is the permanently encumbered status.
