No, psys suck. Go warrior as your first class.

Don't listen to dourht, he is screwing with you..... Optimally, you want to pick a first class that won't screw you later. The mob equipment wearable to a character is determined by his/her first class. Many valuable items cannot be worn by warriors/rogues. It is best to go Cleric, Psionicist, or Paladin first, in my opinion, because:
1. Every good build MUST have cleric or paladin, if not both(if you cannot heal, you will die many, many times)
2.The BEST builds, in my opinion, should have two of the aforementioned classes, and a primary offensive class(warrior, rogue, mage)
-and-
3.These classes can wear the most mob equipment

ALSO: Trolls suck ass(I don't care if you disagree, I /AM/ right)
The best races are: Grig(not going to explain why, they just are), Orc, Nixie, Half-Orc, Deep Gnome

Hospic, despite what others may say, is only all right.
The only two worthwhile starsigns in my opinion are Pentagram and the Knight.

As far as ancestries go, Lich and Thrall are best for a melee build and Lich is one of the best caster ancestries, as well. The BEST caster ancestry is Ooze.

Ok, Hyperion brought up an interesting point. I consider the only worthwhile char to be a PvP and my post was an outline for the best PvPs. It is, by NO means what works best for PvE. Thanks for correcting Hyperion. I may have accidentally misled this guy gsman otherwise.
