Gnome warrior

[pijan]

See a lot of gnome warriors running around, and it makes me curious. Are they a good pick? They seem to have low stats but those goggles are hard to pass up.

[bigjeff100]

min/max bad pick... But don't be that guy... Play the gnome warrior!!!!!!

[Qtip]

I went with gnome because high dex and the watchmen armor clickys. 40% haste, 30 dex, 30 str, sow, see invis, invis.
Add in root nets and you're no longer playing a basic warrior.

There any diety worth picking for a warrio?

[aaezil]

Gnome is one of the worst picks. If you want to be short be a Halfling sneak/hide is 100x better than anything gnomes get.

If you want to actually have decent str/sta try a large race

[demokatt]

Brell gnome non kos in sol a, hole. Summon beer, 40% spell haste clicky.

Race means all but nothing. Not needing shrink to corner tank is pretty Op.

Summon beer thingy is just for Clerics I think?

Zek.

Really struggling to pick a race for war. Gnome warrior seems pretty dope but am worried I'm handicapping myself and don't want to get to end game and go "well shit this was a mistake"

If you make it to the end game then your race isn't relevant

Would you elaborate? It seems ogres and iksar get the hot racial for later game. Will I be able to find groups as a gnome or people pass you over?

Iksars get an ac advantage when they can finally wear velious plate, ogres get frontal stun immunity. Neither are game breaking and nobody is going to check your race. If anything they will see gnome and assume you are a twink.

End game armor has so many stats on it plus buffs taking you to the cap on many things. Plus for raid targets you just click a Midnight Mallet and sit your ass in the corner with an egg timer for how long is left on Defensive stance. Tho I think people use stopwatches on their fancy calculator watches now.

But leveling up you are probably going to want frontal stun immunity
even Slam is super useful all the times due to it being linked to Bash with a higher skillcap over kick
or even iksar ac/regen

But if you are dead set on gnome, consider going Brell deity so you can have access to that superfucking sweet dwarven cultural armor. as a gnome you wont be allowed in evil cities anyways and going brell shouldnt hurt you. even zek is cool because of that human cultural stuff

Brell items: http://wiki.project1999.com/Deity_Specific_Items#Brell_Serilis
Zek stuff: http://wiki.project1999.com/Deity_Specific_Items_Continued#Rallos_Zek

And I have to add Tinkering and making/recharging them is super expensive

Outside of the armor is there a benefit to any diety?

Not a whole lot.

Can occasionally help with faction, depending on the group. But that's about it.

[demokatt]

Actually I dont Think u need a certain deity

http://wiki.project1999.com/Enchanted_Dwarven_Breastplate

The deity ones have wis too but dont think that do anything for warriors?

[pijan]

Appreciate all the input. Think it's time to make this ankle biter a reality!

[Jauna]

For a warrior? Not really.

All the buffs last for an hour outside of haste, which is 20 mins. At 5pp a cast, just looting gems pays for the recharges quick. +30 dex/str for 5pp an hour is worth it, even 40% haste at 5pp a cast is worth the 5pp.

Each piece sells for 2k, which is also cheap for a piece of armor you will always keep, unless you get a eyepatch of plunder. Which is still only 20% haste.

[demokatt]

We should make a gnome only guild!

[pijan]

Can halflings peak walls like gnomes can? I read something saying sneak racial is amazing for warrior is this true?

[Jimjam]

Not anything as well as Gnomes do.

[Arkanjil]

Halflings are amazing, just for sneak. Gnome wins all fashionquest and cuteness

What makes sneak so amazing since they nerfed sneak pulling?

[Jimjam]

Those are Democratic Republic of Rivervale military secrets, not to be revealed.

[Foxplay]

What makes sneak so amazing since they nerfed sneak pulling?

can get around some see invis mob's (sneak if behind the target is still indifferent regardless of if they can see invis)

Can also cheat any quest that only requires indiff or just non kos

[Troxx]

What makes sneak so amazing since they nerfed sneak pulling?

Doing quests that you couldn't otherwise without faction.

Getting around mobs from behind that you otherwise couldn't.

Gnomes are the second best warriors. First, of course, are asslings.

End game armor has so much stamina that it’s stupid easy to max stamina, then with a primal you easily have max dex, agi and str. I have a 60 Gnome Warrior and leveling with those watchmen arms were amazing. I did a lot of soloing with blood points and a truncheon, and having 40% haste buff af all times was incredible. Not to mention duoing with people. Furthermore, at 60, the extra 52 stamina an ogre would have over a Gnome nets 312hp. I realize that’s a sizable chunk when it comes to tanking mobs like AoW, but you’re not gonna tank AoW on any race until your gear is solid. By the time you have the armor that would get an Ogre to 6300hp, you’d have max stamina on a Gnome as well.

TLDR version: play what you want, race doesn’t matter

[pijan]

Go to the fashion page (https://wiki.project1999.com/Players:Fashion). Scroll down to Velious Armor Sets by Race. Pick the race you think looks coolest.

So gnome or iksar basically?

Dump every possible starting point in Sta. Str is literally on every single piece of warrior gear you will get later on. I recently destroyed No Drop gloves with +20 Str, didn't need them and the AC was low. Dex is almost equally as easy to max in the end game.

Buy a set of Dwarven Plate (Str and Sta on every single piece as well as good AC). That will carry you to 50+ when you can start getting Velious quest armor.

Nothing wrong at all with a Gnome Warrior.
