Enchanter race/deity
 
I know it's somewhat expected that enchanters choose to be agnostic, but what does this really have an impact on? I've never really played an enchanter, but I know that they are able to quest for their stein of moggok at a very early level. Is the religion thing a factor in any quest, really? I like to pick a deity when able, because it's kind of fun.

What would be the downside to worshiping bertox/inny? What about quellious, tunare, or erollisi?

And I wanted to ask about race mostly for information on the charisma stat. Figured I would put 20 into cha and 5 into int because I plan on soloing a lot (starting up on PvP server again). Would it be a huge mistake to go with gnome or dark elf, because of the low charisma? I know enchanters get whatever illusions they want, but race really does matter still...

Some of the best solo enchanters on this server are gnome enchanters so there is that.

I've always heard dark elves make the best enchanters due to you being able to hide and break your charmed pet. Also the reason you want to be agnostic is because having a deity will mess with your factions so you wont be able to use an illusion and go to a certain part of a city which you otherwise would be able to if you were agnostic , limiting what you can do

Brell would be the only deity I would consider as an enchanter since it is the closest to agnostic.

On live my bard had a invis vs. animals ring to break charm without issue. Can't I just get one of those, or was that a Velious item? Hide seems pretty unreliable when I use it.

And if deity only affects towns to sell, buy and bank in, then it hardly seems like a big deal at all. Are there any quests I would be unable to do if I chose a deity, does anyone know?

But why?

Go inny and that will tell you why.

Edit because I felt bad: Your spells are spread out across Norrath. Your illusions are in Erudin mostly and your pet spells are in HK and your enchant metals are in Neriak etc. etc. This is common knowledge and due to their spells being so far spread, it is important for an enchanter to be able to freely walk around any city they choose. Brell as far as I know only has trouble with ogre SKs which is not entirely important as that guild is easily avoided.

Another edit: I forgot the biggest PIA to buy from: brownies

I've played several inny characters in the past, it's really not a big deal. I don't really care if I'm unable to bank or sell in some towns, what I really want to know is if anything major is affected by this. Some faction issue that actually matters for some sort of enchanter quest, or something.

Thinking I might go human bertox enchanter.

having a diety as a chanter only serves to hurt you, and in no way really helps you. so there isnt really a point for having a diety unless you are dead set on it for roleplaying purposes.

as far as race and cha stat goes. some people will try to tell you that cha makes a big difference in charming. it does not. While it has an impact it is very minimal, and your largest impacts will be your level vs the mob, and the mobs magic resistance. Race choice isnt going to make or break you due to CHA differences
