Default Races

With the talk of race changes, I've been wondering what you guys think is the best choice of races for a mystic. I haven't studied all of them yet, but off the top of my head, erudite seems like the hands down winner because of the 5% casting speed. Everyone talks about erudite whizzards, but I assume the casting speed is for heal spells too. The mystic is a dwarf right now, and if I change any of my races, it'll probably be him.

I still stand by the concept of choosing the butt you can look at for 80 levels and beyond. Seriously -- with AAs and items, isn't it all a wash at some point? Maybe not if you're a min-maxxer, but still... eh ...

Ogre is the best choice obviously.

10secs of stun immune every 4mins30secs is uber. Just like have another Freedom of mind potion on a shorter recast timer

Default Re: Races

I took Kerra for + heal crit & ministration, additional power, and 30 sec burst of speed. Speed burst is handy to get caught up to the raid if you are lolly-gagging after a wipe. Though it was probably meant for training mobs. Finally, the deaggro is great for padding your heal parse during a wipe!!

Default Re: Races

I hate you all, tbh

Hoss says: What races give the best bonuses for a mystic?

Random: I love my halfling's chubby cheeks and lumpy ass!
Random: My Wood elf has a hot ass and I touch it on screen
Random: I think you should pick the class you like, unless you bother with that silly math stuff

Hate me back, please.

I think you have 3 real choices:

Erudites: give a perm 5% casting speed plus a small personal ward.
Arasai: have a 5 min reuse, 30s buff that gives you 10% casting speed and an extra aoe deaggro
Dark elves: have a 5 min reuse, 30s buff that gives you 10% casting speed, an encounter deaggro and 3% max power pool

Trolls/Ogres have 10s fear/stun immunity, so that's marginally interesting

Has there been any word about the race changes being restricted to your alignment? Can a mystic go to Arasai or Dark Elf or would that be a whole betrayal problem? I haven't seen the notes, appreciate any info.
