Yes. But not what you think it would be for. If you pick Inny you cant get any racial made armor since trolls never had their's put in game so you are stuck with Ogre stuff which only comes in Cazic or Rallo's flavors.
So there is no Troll Inny armor but if he went CZ there would be troll armor? He doesn't really want to wear ogre stuff lol. He wants to stick to troll. So I'm assuming he has to reroll to Troll SK CZ then? He is currently only level 3 so it's not much of a big deal.

Though to be fair he has been thinking of switching to Dark Elf SK. Even though everyone said they are weak choice for SK and leveling up will be a pain. Most say if you aren't going Troll/Ogre go Human instead (for small race). Eh lets see what he does.

Initial stat allocation means dick for the raiding end game. People talk about raiding oh hit points this or mana that, yeah great.

Yeah we almost had Vox but muh hundred....

That's just ridiculous min-max theoretical stuff, in practice the application is minimal. It's just perception. Literally no one outside the toon is going to notice Player X has a 100 less or more hp in a situation where you're getting quad hits of 600 or hiroshima nukes.

The only real effect your initial stat allocation has any effect is the mid-game, where the level-based formulas actually let you notice the effect, and you don't have super gear yet to plug your holes. And it's really a reflection of your chosen play style. I like to tank in groups and I also like to sit there by myself and process blues. In the first situation I never need mana. In the second mana is my bottleneck.

Having said that I regret my initial stat allocation and wish I went with the most hardcore choice: full AGI.

This is part of the reason why he is considering switching to Dark Elf Shadow Knight. Even though most say that's a TERRIBLE idea from what I've read/seen.
