Yes? The point was the Scaled Hierophant Guantlets are Iksar-only and there are better options anyways (Coldain).

You are implying Iksar are sub-par Shamans, yet they can equip every item you listed in your OP.

They will also have more AC then the non-Iksar wearing the same gear

I never said anything like that. You're just trying to start shit, go back to rnf.

Not trying to start shit at all. I and others simply disagreed with a few of your assertions...Why is that a problem?

I play one because I love Iksar, but they definitely not optimal shamans.

No JBB, no slam, no frontal stun immunity!

In this thread: people raging at Alarti during one of the few times he's actually being constructive.

Not one of those things change, unfortunately. JBB doesn't become iksar wearable. Increase in Iksar AC in Velious won't make up for the flaws.

Oh, I definitely understand that. But the original post is referring to Velious gear, All of which is Iksar wearable.

I was just pointing out how he tried to slam Iksar Shamans for being inferior to other races, yet all the items he linked can be equiped by Iksars lol

Why?

My bonus iksar AC makes up for, what wearing one additional piece of armor? Negates your hits by what, maybe an additional 3-5%? (Just saying numbers for the sake of illustration).

Is that worth not being able to JBB? Is it worth not being able to back yourself up against a wall and avoid being stunned?

It is for me, because I love iksar. But if my goal were to be a min/max solo God, I don't think I would have made the choice I did.

What is the net benefit of iksar bonus AC when the mob is slowed anyway?
