Based soley on the new info of Racial Innates, I've constructed a guide.
If you ever want a group I will help you out.
Here are the Race/Class Combo's you must use.
Humans - Bard
Ashen Elves - Bard
Ember Elves - Bard
Haflings - Bard
Dwarves - Monk
Archai - Bard
Gnomes - Obviously - Bard
Skar - Bard, but should only group with other Skar Bards
Ogres - Bard
Dark Myr - Fishing, no other viable options exsist for you.
If you follow this method, you will never have trouble finding a group. Unless you are a Dark Myr.
no, just no. there no reason to basically have every race be a bard, you make it sound just becuase an ogre can pick up an instrument and pluck at a string they can be a bard, thats honestly the most insulting thing to a musician(bard) with that mentality since i can sit beside a piano and hit a key can i be Ludwig van Beethoven, or grab a guitar and be Slash?

I certainly hope that this is the attempt at humor that I take it as.....hehehehhe
Try this again, but list the classes then the best race for that class. With the given innates, it's now pretty limited in a selection.
Limited for the min/max player or those who fear that their guilds will insist on running only the best combinations.
For a roleplayer or a casual or semi-casual player the selections seem pretty wide.
Granted things will change and those of us in alpha or beta that want a sweet spot between uniformity and excessive disparity should make it our business to focus on that in our comments.

Guilds that will do this, will probably find it unnesscary, it has never been that way really in any game whatsoever, even tohugh people do seem to chase i guess the "meta" doesnt mean that if you play that combo you will be "good" that honestly just the way it is, so instead of ttrying to tunnel vision yourself into anything, just play the game, the way you want and let it be, if they so happen to require it than it is what it is, but that shouldnt be the case, as ive said before at the end of the day the better played player will be the person on top and if they are blind to that than thats on them.
Rishu - unfortunately it is not at all uncommon in many MMOs to see raids or groups or guilds to require unnecessarily high levels of gear before being willing to take someone. Or to require that someone play the "right" AA tree or the "right" race for a class.
It is also not at all uncommon just to have a few guilds that are very good at "endgame" content and if they won't take you - getting a good chance to play that content before it becomes outdated is very hard.
I may not quite see eye-to-eye with people like Disposalist on the importance of making all races somewhat comparable to reduce the risk of some combinations becoming pariahs. But that doesn't mean they are wrong in framing the issues - they most certainly are not wrong.
I would wager that the people thinking high level guilds will restrict people based on their race/class combo, have never actually been in a high end guild.
The only reason to do this, is if everyone was already performing at like 95+ percent of their simmed dps and was properly geared and you were still unable to kill a boss due to dps.
This is a non issue in every situation that 99.99% of the player base will be in. Please stop saying it.
