The unknown status of dreadscale is the biggest reason I won't be rolling an Iksar SK right away. I will be waiting until confirmation that either they do or do not work. There are other options out there, but you have to mix and match (not a problem unless you really care about how your toon looks).

On a side note, Iksars get a natural AC bonus that sorta balances out not being able to wear plate. Plus once dreadscale and the iksar only planar gear are implemented, iksars become one of the best choices for tanks due to this AC bonus. Even more so when velious launches.

Basically, if you want to roll an iksar tank, go for it. They won't be too much better than any other race......yet, but they will be.

I was thinking chain mail forgot Iksar was a no go on it. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Personally I get a warm feeling out of the imperfections that stick around on p99 just like the old days. That's what gives me the beginning feels of nostalgia once more. There will always be defiant players who, against all odds, will roll Iksar warriors and SK, and do really well in the overall mix end game.

It's okay. A lot of the raid gear can be worn by Iksar in the same manner that Druid planar is chain, yet they're a leather class. Twink-wise and mid-game, you'll have to be creative with itemizing obviously.

If we want to step away from talking end game for a moment, I'll throw in my 2 cents from a start up point... that is most tanks whether ogre barbarian or other still don't even wear plate. And if they do it's usually bronze.
