OK. well i havent actually played eq or eq2 or even the beta for that matter but i have made up my mind for going orc heavenly dragon style monk. the orc is for the +10% damage and the next 5 hits the damage u deal will be returned to u in hp

AWSOME especially cos by the looks of it we dont have very good healing abilities. that said we have ignore pain or w/e which heals us for 300-400 for a rank 1 but well i dont know how this will increase.
what i would liek to know is what the stat bonuses that orcs get and well what all the different stats actually mean
