Those stats aren't in yet anyway so play whatever race you want, the correct answer is goblin though.I have zero EA/Beta experience, but I've always played Rogue and that's what I plan to play in MnM -- I was an Assling in EQ, but was hoping to avoid going down that path a second time.
From what I understand, + to weapon skills is quite powerful and a huge incentive to pick a Halfling -- that said, is the bonus only useful while leveling? As in, does everyone eventually get to the same cap or is it a situation where Assling rogues will have like 150 Piercing Skill while everyone else is at 135?

As far as has been described, they’ll have a higher capI have zero EA/Beta experience, but I've always played Rogue and that's what I plan to play in MnM -- I was an Assling in EQ, but was hoping to avoid going down that path a second time.

Cleric rune is the tits though, sort of them leaning hard into melee cleric they are 100% going to be the best main healer. Only going shaman so the core group has SoW, otherwise cleric all day.The new Cleric spell that enchants the weapons of group members was exactly the kind of thing I felt the class was missing. Something unique other than rez (situational, out of combat) and good heals. Maybe this will give some extra incentive to consider them alongside Shaman and Druid, so it doesn't feel bad if you skip out on Shaman haste/slow or Druid damage and utility. Not sure how effective these spells will be, but I'm glad they're giving a bit of oomph to Cleric, since I'll probably play all the healers if I end up sticking around. Still seems like Druid utility and shaman utility + haste/slow win out in the end, but I think this is the right direction with Cleric.
Kinda a shame the deep gnome female other hair options didn’t make the cutoff.
