Default Best race for war?

Rolling a new war specifically for raid tanking.

Do I go ogre with max cha or half elf max cha?

CHA is the only stat that doesn't get maxed with buffs / gear endgame.

Wondering is FSI is actually that noticeable when raid tanking?

War aggro is all clickies anyways...

FSI is noticable when raid tanking. It's like the only real use of it.

That said, fashion is the true end game.

Bard song maxes ogre CHA. Tall small waist races don’t fly through ogre wall on tunare as much. Gnome has the best self haste. Iksars have less potential dps. Ogres can bowger for maximum possible dps with weighted axe. Play what you think looks coolest.

Do you have to put your points in CHA on ogre to max it endgame?

I'm going to ignore the question that is about raiding and answer that there is no way I'd pass up Cog Boost 40% haste clicky as a Gnome in the current timeline.

Iksar, Gnome, Troll and Ogre all have their own upsides where no upside is strictly better than the others.

If it's strictly for raiding it's ogre, some mobs like aow stun so much ogre makes a huge difference.
Di seems to work pretty often even on my 40cha dwarf,so I wouldn't worry too much about that aspect.

My warrior is a dwarf,6.5k hp. Last time I tanked aow,according to my logs I was stunned around 30% of the time

Now that makes no difference in tanking or procs,but it makes a huge difference in white agro. If I'm first tank on aow I burn a scepter,whereas an ogre even with inferior agro weapons probably wouldn't need to.
