Rogue PvP question

[Raclen]

I'm deciding between making a Barbarian and Halfling. Are throwing boulders and slam big enough reason for Barbarians to be a must? I figure with how broke melee is passing up a backstab might not be worth it even for an interrupt since a backstab could easily be the killing blow anyways. The exp bonus for halfling is a huge plus.

Does anyone regret not making a Barbarian rogue at level 50+?

Boulder and str is a big deal but if u just wanna rush up go for halfling ain't no thang.

barbarian > dwarf > halfling > human > half elf > wood elf > gnome > dark elf

I see people say this and I have to ask why? That's like saying play whatever class you want it doesn't matter. You have racial abilities that actually matter in EQ like hide/sneak, stun immunity, slam. Race is a hugely important decision.
