GNOME!! with that awesome looking Years-of-the-80ies-style and spectacles. Of course, non soga. didnt set the soga appearance yet, and also dont know how i look in soga, cause soga sucks!!

might should have rolled a half-elf though, friend of mine made a female half elf and looks very sexy..... wonder what race our children will be =)

Fael · 07-21-2006, 11:19 PM

Ive tried Erudite and High Elf. The latter look really good if you make them frown, with thin lips and wide mouth. Like you distain everyone thats not a High Elf.What I really would like is an Iksar, but I hate playing Coercer, so have never got him high enough to betray, with invis (makes it easier). I will get back to them sometime.Mal

This is something that is missing from the EQ2 Enchanters. It truly did not matter what race you picked in EQ1, eventually you could walk around looking like any of them. I always liked to roleplay my chanter as one with a huge identity crisis. Even he forgot sometimes what race he truly was.

Gnome here. They are great for getting around dundeons. SMILEY

Before level 40, the betrayal is very hard. I was 63 when I did it (From Qey to FP) and there were aggro guards all over the place. Took lots of invis, mez, and fancy footwork at 63. Couldn't imagine doing it below 40.

Gnome ofcourse... they get all the girls...

I can't believe it! Surely I am not the only Teir'Dal Illusionist in the thread?

Now you aren't!I was wondering the same thing, we are a rare combo that's for sure, heheh. Dark elf, sexiest race in the game!

Hutch5 · 08-07-2006, 01:58 AM

Ogre here! They certainly know how to fill out a robe. :smileytongue:

My brand-new Illusionist is a Wood Elf, for pretty much the wrong reason: I needed a Wood Elf Male for a specific hairstyle, and I needed that hairstyle to support my character name. This is the first time I am putting the 'race is irrelevant' axiom to the test - early on I optimized the combination via starting stats, and later by racial trait options. So I've gone superficial, but what the heck, I've got plenty of low-level gear to raise INT up to where it should be.

The hairstyle? That comb-forward look with the weeds woven into the back, colored white.

The name? Flock Of'Seagulls, of course. That was the first thing that popped into my head when I saw the 'do while rolling a different toon.

I didn't like Swashie, so Flock got rerolled as an Illusionist. The Enchanters I've met during pickup groups have impressed the heck out of me, and the Illu looked to be more my speed than the Coercer.

Seagulls even fits in with that Wood Elf-Nautical Theme the guidebook suggests you name WEs with. As if I ever go by that advice! Good thing you didn't, because that's their advice for Half-Elves, not Wood Elves.

oh!

I'm so making a new dress for my illusionist to play with the pet!!

One thing you can do with the robes and such is wear one robe, cast your pet and then change robes, the pet stays with the old robe until you zone or die. I do this and since I'm a barbarian I cast my half-elf illusion so I'm no longer with a "twin". This is a nice change from the pair of identical characters adventuring together.

Just cast your Group Illusionist Half-Elf or Human(then cancel it on yourself), and you too can have a hotty following you!

NOTE: this REALLY messes with the shamans, sorcerers, and summoners in your group...:smileyvery-happy:

Zephanor · 08-17-2006, 09:27 AM

Yes, some of my guildies now have illusions off by default, bwahahah!Hey, what can I say?:smileytongue:

Mepha · 08-20-2006, 05:51 PM

I have a Koada'Dal Illusionist and a Teir'Dal Coercer.

evil_drag · 08-21-2006, 10:17 AM

Sadly race don't have a substancial effect :smileysad: it suppose to have when game start., well they sayd that., my illusionist is erudite lvl 70 :smileyhappy:., it suppose to be best class.,

i wish i could change it for female high elf :smileywink: anyway i just turn soga moden just on erudite., it's the only class that looks better in soga :smileyvery-happy:

btw my illusionist at test server is a female high elf :smileyhappy:

VerikDarkfaith · 08-21-2006, 10:35 AM

Iksar. Not too many iksar illusionists around on my server.

Fyorwin · 08-21-2006, 09:20 PM

Gnome, because to gnome is to love me!

nosfeas · 09-08-2006, 06:12 PM

I made a Froklok and Called him Ruckit and I love it. I made him just for fun becouse I have a few good main's already ( Necro,Assasin,Pally ) but the more I play him the more I love being a Froglok illusioniest. I love playing the pet based classes anyway and have 1 of each the Necro is by far my favorite of anything to play but im starting to like the Froglok illusioniest almost as much.

Kuroen · 09-09-2006, 12:49 AM

I picked High elf for my Illusionist, I love my illusionist and High elves are what I also thought of as the true magic races, after playing Eq1 for 4 years, I just don't feel right seeing wood elf casters.. much less ogre ones, but hey whatever floats your boat hehe. I am also always was fond of the elven races, always playing elven race classes since pen and paper. *laughs*
