Picking a race for shaman
Doing this on my phone so first off I'm sorry if it formats funny.
I have made 7 characters now since I started on p99 and have yet to get higher than 22. I figure I am missing my old live character which was a Shaman but have avoided it due to the massive shaman population. I am over the idea of too many shaman and was looking for a pros/cons list of being a shaman currently. My budget for gear is about 10k so gear advice would be welcome as well. I will add more when I get home as typing this on my phone is becoming tedious. Thanks in advance! | ||

My main back on live was a troll, which was created prior to Kunark being released so Iksar might be fun for something I have never done.

Depends on what you want to do.
If you want a Soloing Shaman @ high end, go Ogre. Stun Immunity is OP as shit. If you want the most mana for raiding/buffs, go Iksar. Regen + fungi = awesome. | ||

Bryjun sums this up best on the wiki.
Ogre. All I'll add is that absolutely any time you get stunned trying to topor, you would of lived on an ogre. They are not even comparable. If the question is about what's the 8th, 9th and 10th best races for a shaman then it's iksar, barbarian, troll. But spots 2-7 are reserved because that's how much better an ogre is. | ||

Come Velious, I'll take Iksar as the best shaman race. Currently it's Troll. Ogre is 2nd or 3rd, depending on how you look at it.

That all makes sense, thank you all for the input. I will be going ogre. I keep hearing stun immunity is crazy OP but I have a hard time with how much of a giant boulder ogres are. I'll get used to it though.

hah that is a good idea. I had them all turned on for a bit but I felt the classic feeling slipping away.

ungnghhhhhhhh
sick of this "stun immunity is OP" bullshit. Ogre stats are OP but at 60 especially with Velious everyone's stats are going to be high anyway. But more importantly with your highest level slow mobs will bash or kick approximately every 30 SECONDS. That's bash OR kick. Use the search function, last year or the year before someone did the maths to show this. Torpor takes 6 seconds to cast. Unless you are severely disabled you should be able to find a 6 second window between those bashes. I would go troll or maybe iksar. Regen is much more useful 1-59. IF you can afford torpor at 60 regen loses some of its value, but 1-59 is hardly an inconsiderable chunk of the game. Iksar doesn't get JBB obviously but that's only an issue if you have 45k to buy one. | ||
