Dark Elf Swashy??

[Diabalo]

I am just wondering what would be the best race for swashy concerning racial traits, abilities, etc.. I here that dark elves are good...I wanted to be human but i was told they arent too good...i dont mind though...just want some info on what is best.

well people say it doesnt matter what race you are... but come on. You should choose a race that will give you a bonus for poisons. A well as a bonus for crits and power.I really love my halfing because he gets an extra 25% poison, and when you get to 52 mc posions are freaking expensive. He gets his crits and whatnot. He gets that extra % of max power, and I love his class ward that rises with your lv. I mean its not a bunch only like 683 at lv 67 but it saves you alot when you need it trying to kill something.Im pretty sure dark elves have alot of the same abilities that the halflings do as well so they're probably a good choice as well.

I did what no one else is doing that I can find. I went Erudite. Sure not the best, but I get slow fall, AOE encounter spell, a ward, power reged +47 out of combat, casting speed (not much of a difference, except seems to help when cheap shotted and trying to get in the back attacks), other misc things.Poison or stealth movement are the only two things I would say might make a difference. I don't think the racials matter really. There are some nice to haves etc. but nothing that is going to [Removed for Content] you. I am sure if you min/max there may be a difference, but I usually can kill a single that I can stealth up to before I take more than 1 or 2 hits.

The one you love is the one you should pick. Racial traits are just a stereotype, once you level up they won't even mean a thing. Sure ratongas get +25% poison proc, but still would u rather have a scrawny weakling or a true hero, like a froglok =))) (No offense..No Offense..)
