Any Race + Any Class, what would you try out?

This topics been done before, but i'm doing it again [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

There's going to be a lot of Ogres, Iksar's, Halflings and Trolls to be sure, but maybe you've thought of something cool.

If it could be done, what combo would you think would be pretty cool?


Ogre's would make fantastic Paladins i'd think, and Iksar's are dominating the casters, but maybe ogres would too.


Maybe I could spice up the rules by making the equipment draw not change, but I won't. Just pretend the equipment were reasonably distributed to some extent if the combo would be available.

You mean of the non allowable race/class combos?

I'm not gunna participate.

Cool racial ability + any class that makes that class / race combo the best one in the game.

Ogre anything
Troll anything
Iksar Anything
Barbarian anything

In that order

The only class / race combo that should never have happened is the Iksar Monk and all the changes to the monk class Kunark brought. But they had to make something OP and super kick ass. I remember people who were monks on vanilla and then kunark comes out and every day there is a new kick ass monk thing they discover, they were so excitied.

Eh Iksar Monk aren't that much better than humans, although I think the class should've stayed human only to preserve the uniqueness.

The only race/class combo in the game that shouldn't have happened is Iksar Necro. Increasing the efficiency of their class defining ability (Lich) is just broken. No other race/class combo synergizes at that level.

Aside from silly meme combinations (Ogre Rogue, Troll Cleric, etc), I'd just like the combos that actually made it into the game around Luclin that make sense from a lore perspective (Halfling Ranger/Pally, Gnome Pally/SK).

Regen is nice, but it isn't gamebreaking on a monk since mend and Fungi exist, just makes things a bit faster, AC is nice but again doesn't make that huge a difference. Yeah they're better but not in a way that actually matters, it's on the level of FSI for Shaman, nice but doesn't change the class functionally.

For a Necro, you're getting the benefit of two innate Z-hearts, the BIS 1Her for the class which directly impacts your core mana regen mechanic. that's actually game changing.

Gnome SK is an abomination before God and man… like gnomes themselves 😜😜

Ogre anything, not-being-frontal-stunned-time adds the fuck up to almost an infinite amount. and since the dec22 patch that time is precious and if you ever wondered why ogre shaman can be top tier soloers you now know why.
And Slam skills up Bash and Bash effects Slams chance to hit and damage. Even when Warriors get a bonus to Kick at level 55, Slam still wins.

WoW made a whole expansion about allowing those.
