Number one answer to these types of questions is, you'll probably never get to the level for it to matter anyway, play what you want.

If you want an edge for raiding pick Ogre

All races is the same in the end if you know what to do. The extra HP matters very little in velious considering how much harder mob hits.

Play whatever you like.

Intriguing. Are uoubspeaking figuratively, or referring to a specific item or tactic?^^ I assumed the former, but had to make sure!

Small races have a big advantage in jousting.

I tend to agree with you as an individual who has been around a while and has managed to make a fair few plat and such. However you're failing to point out that as a new player with 0 gear or platinum, the extra 60ish stamina/strength you get by choosing ogre or troll completely DOES make a difference in both tyour survivability and ability to deal damage.

Gnomes have the same hitbox as a halfling though, and halflings have arguably better stats. Dwarves have even better warrior stats, but level slower.

So if you want a small race that levels fast with a minor stat penalty, Halfling. If not, Dwarf. No reason to go gnome other than appearance.

Had all the warriors played the same way, the winner would have either been iksar or troll for the regen. I wouldn't let warrior BOTB factor in anyway. As a warrior you are having to tank things in melee range. A gnome is fine if thats what you want to play. If you want an edge for raiding pick Ogre or Iksar (Velious). If you want an edge for solo/duoing, Troll is a great choice for regen/stats. If you want to play what you want and willing to suffer the stat differences to level 60, play the gnome.

Best advise on here. Well done. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
