You'll want to consider the following factors when picking a race for your character:
Contents |
Class
Each race can only play certain classes, so this is a major limiting factor
TODO: Add class/race options table (hopefully wiki has one already that can be copied?)
Size
There are five race sizes, defined by what size armor they can wear.
Race Armor Options
There are three armor sizes, small/medium/large ...
- small: Dwarf, Gnome, Halfling
- small/medium: High Elf, Wood Elf
- medium: Erudite, Human, Iksar
- medium/large: Barbarian
- large: Ogre, Troll
The in-between sizes will have the most clothing options when leveling up, but all races can find wearable gear if they hunt the right zones. Also high level gear typically fits all classes, so size matters much less for gear later on.
Race Size Perspectives
In EverQuest you literally see the world from your character's perspective, so if you choose a small character you will be staring at everyone else's knees for the rest of your EQ career. Conversely if you pick a large character, you will likely want to acquire a way to Shrink yourself someday, simply because of the inconvenience of being large in small dungeons.
