Agreed with both points:
1. Gnomish wiz got better stats for total INT+DEX+AGI.
2. DE wiz look better, hehe, gotta admit that. But in my eye, high elf got
the best look amg all elves, thou DE's blue skill look cool, but kinda
small built. H/w, one of the necro guides I've read is written by a gnome
necro and the play love his char like crazy becoz he enjoy 'draining life'
from those big guys around him ;)
Also try a erudite wiz last night but cannot play w/o infravision, thou
they have the highest INT.
Btw, it just happened that I've leaving work place when I wrote those msg,
keep writing and retriving mails, hehe.
