how much am i going to hate my life? lol

Also does anyone have any SK pro tips as i have never played one before...

can they solo or am i in it for the long haul?

they can solo, just not as good as caster classes or bards.

My tip for you would be to group as much as possible. This way, ur XP penalty would be shared among your group members, so it wont hurt you that much [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Tanks are a shortage while leveling up, but some morons will hate you for your exp penalty. Screw them, make friends, tank well, and you'll get group offers. The crummiest part about iksar in Kunark is their very limited armor choices. Get some banded and just start tanking, the rest will fall in line.

At a 17-20k going rate, I don't think that is a feasible option for him.

Iksar SK armor choices aren't great sadly, I've heard they don't tank as well as their tail-less counterparts at later levels.

Good advice above, given the tank shortage people who want to make an enemy of you because of the exp penalty are retarded and will have to make do with no tank at all a lot of the time [You must be logged in to view images.

would you recommend i re-roll? to troll?

Swish · #9 03-07-2012, 10:32 AM

Troll would give you better tanky stats, and better armor options... but if there's one quote that resonates on these forums its "play what you enjoy" - I like lizards, just a shame that 9/10 of them are monks/necros here [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

EDIT: Ogre is similar, with a slight reduction in their racial penalty, if you go there, be sure to put 5 points in AGI on creation [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
