Self found shaman

I wish my 60 troll was a 60 barb.
Spiritualist hammer, not shrinking for mid size zones (HK) and a quicker road to 60 would have been fun.

The snare neck is situationally nice as is the regen but I’d still trade them for a white polar bear illusion.

Are there high level zones that you HAVe to shrink in?

Like even Lguk is troll sized, and most other big boy zones fit fatties.

But I’ve barely played fatties, so where do you feel you need to shrink and if you were a barb you wouldn’t have to?

Don’t forget to hit kurns in your teens. Iksar berserker club.

As a self found Barbarian you can save up 12pp for a 6 damage 29 delay spear from home city merchants, then move to a fine steel great staff or combine version on merchants or as a barbarian you could kill a low level dwarf at the docks in Qeynos to get a 13 50 Bloodforge Hammer and with Velious out I would get a 9 32 Bloodstained Fang from late 20's snow cougars in Iceclad. You can also save your pp and get blacksmithing high enough for banded armor then switch in the mid levels to Totemic armor which you can ride to the high 50's if you want to and switch up with attainable wisdom gear. The Totemic armor will need a suit of MEDIUM banded armor for the quest which is convenient. You can also pretty easily get the 5 hp earrings but not having 5 ac 55 hp rings would be annoying to me.

Ogre is better with Torpor, Troll is better without Torpor. Iksars are the worst since they can't use JBB.

If you can twink your Shaman, you should always go Ogre if you want to min/max. If the Shaman is your first character, or you don't have a lot of money, Troll is still a great choice, since the regen will significantly help you get to 60, so you can farm plat for other characters. No racial bonus is make or break for Shamans.

The reason why Ogres are the best with Torpor is because you can't get Frontal Stun Immunity with an item, and Troll regen doesn't do much when you have Torpor.

If you go ogre and intend to go full bis put your starting points in agility or dex.

Barb is min/max fashion, the only thing that matters. Shammy is so OP none of the racials make much of a difference.
