I was just wondering if any beta testers or others know how important having high starting stats is in EQ2. I mainly ask since i was leaning towards a half elf mage, but since gnomes, dark elves and erudites all have int near 26-30 and the half elf only has 21 i was worried that losing almost 1/6 of the stat pool would affect my effectiveness (Or is this not the case in EQ2 with so many stat items prevalent).
Even though u can be "any race/class combination", is it viable?
Cheers
