Cleric races. So many good choices

[DMN]

So i'm now soon starting up my cleric on green but I'm actually pretty torn on race. Here are the top contenders IMO and the logic you might want to pick one on greal.

Inny human cleric

Solid well rounded stats. For a month or two you will get to have fun with that lich mask from paineel. Long term you get free fear and snare from clickies. Guise + inny opens up some interesting quest potential too. The ability to wear ivandyr's hoop should also be noted, as none of the other 3 can do so. 6hp, 6 ac, and 6 wis is nothing to sneeze at pre-velious . might even be useful in this time period for some emergency mana. You life tap with the hoop so you can stone yourself for maybe that extra heal or 2 in an emergency.( as a side note, is it still nerfed for no reason on P99 to not be rechargeable since they already nerfed lifetap line?) Sure other races can click it, but it would require them to use up a precious inventory slot. There is also the fright forged helm will give another instant click you spam for certain dispel-heavy raid encounters.

Dwarf
Solid short term and log term minmax choice for someone that both has a manastone and plans to mainly raid with the character. Short term the dwarf has solid overall stats but in particular the high stamina is of interest to those with stones. The charisma is a huge downfall if you plan to group or solo much. A dwarf will generally get close to one extra stone click per heal.

High elf

Excellent charisma and wisdom, the two most important stats for clerics who do not plan to permanently raid. While you have crap for str so weight is always an issue, box of abu drops frequently on greal and you could focus on getting low weight items that offer good ac/other stats like azure sleeves. Stamina versus charisma for raiding for non melee classes is always an interesting conundrum if factoring in divine intervention.


Halfling

Essentially same story as dwarf with slightly worse stats. But with a 5% exp bonus and the extra coolness of having both hide and sneak. Sneak can be quite useful as clerics don't get invisibility. You can also pacify NPCs to then be able to easily sneak up to them even when they normally wouldn't turn their back to you. The no brainer choice for anyone who just want's that rez ability ASAP.

Any thoughts?
