YE>I'd go for  Half-Ogre... =) Raise Health to 100 or 95
YE>whichever that neato bonus is at, at first level. Then work on intellect
YE>till level 20 hehh you'll have 100, then get your wisdom up to 80, and
YE>last but not least raise your agility... My god you should see this
YE>Half-Ogre mage on my board, he can fight good as all with his dragonclaw
YE>staff and he can cast spells mad. He's level 38 i believe... This dude
YE>is phat.  I made a level 15 half-ogre mage myself, and it was pretty
YE>good. I barely ever failed Sunbolt and all those other spells, i had
YE>intellect to somewhere... i believe around 80, but it coulda been around
YE>70 i'm not sure was long time ago.  The +1 hp per level, and all the HP
YE>at lower levels makes the mage easy to get up. You would have to play by
YE>hand until you get Lbol at level 8 or so though because its kinda hard
YE>to use fjet and script... Lvl 28 ranger should have a hell of a lot of
YE>exp so you shouldnt have to worry about that.
YE>   I would get Runed Robes, Runed Cowl, Obsidian Runestaff, any cloth
YE>sandals or something, the winged sandals would be dumb for a mage but if
YE>you have the money go for it, adamantite bracers, a good ring, i'm not
YE>sure what level the pearl ring is but get it when you can... Get the
YE>DraconClaw Staff and all those Black Silk items from the quickling lord
YE>whenever you can, i think they'rre level 20 or 25... You gotta be able
YE>to find some other good eq somewhere int he tower
YE>Spells... you'l have all those defence spells,
YE>Blur - +1-5 ac depending on your normal ac
YE>MageShield - +18 or +10 or something ac, it's nice ac
YE>Ethereal Shield - Ya dont need that, dont even buy it cuz MageShield
YE>cancels it out and MSHI is better anywyas
YE>ShadowForm - Really cool thingy that makes you not visible to other
YE>players
YE>magic Armour - Gives +1 toughness or whatever it's called, 0/+1 ac
YE>the highest attack spell you'l have is Sunbolt which hits in the 40-50
YE>range, costs 8 mana...
actually, until level 25, winged sandals are best foot armour u can get,
+2 ac instead of +1 ac that all the other crappy shoes give you, and if
u cant get black silk thingos at level 25, keep em :)
