 +OIA consists of three ways to fight:
 +*Dodge-nuking, where you concentrate everything on speed and your dodge rating, allowing you the full ability to cast those lengthy spells that level the entire room. Large groups tend to be no problem at all.
 +*Melee, these are too bulky to seriously consider a full-time job in dodging. They have great difficulty in taking on large groups, but handle a single (potentially strong) opponent with a great potential for finesse and vigor. Long spells are possible with enough effort directed towards deflection, but be prepared to invest a considerable lump of specs in concentration to prevent some fatal interruptions.
 +*Hybrid, these have a certain racial potential to go with either of the previous combat styles, but lack the ability to master either of them. These are potentially far more deadly than the other two, but that depends entirely on the player.

 +You may ask what these methods of warfare have to do with race, and the answer would be: EVERYTHING.

 +You will be limited in how effective a racial choice is depending on your combat style, and vice versa.

Forenote on Races

OIA consists of three ways to fight:

  • Dodge-nuking, where you concentrate everything on speed and your dodge rating, allowing you the full ability to cast those lengthy spells that level the entire room. Large groups tend to be no problem at all.
  • Melee, these are too bulky to seriously consider a full-time job in dodging. They have great difficulty in taking on large groups, but handle a single (potentially strong) opponent with a great potential for finesse and vigor. Long spells are possible with enough effort directed towards deflection, but be prepared to invest a considerable lump of specs in concentration to prevent some fatal interruptions.
  • Hybrid, these have a certain racial potential to go with either of the previous combat styles, but lack the ability to master either of them. These are potentially far more deadly than the other two, but that depends entirely on the player.

You may ask what these methods of warfare have to do with race, and the answer would be: EVERYTHING.

You will be limited in how effective a racial choice is depending on your combat style, and vice versa.

Race Combos with the Guild

Amberite

The guild is really spec heavy, so the high attributes of the Amberites makes them a really good candidate for this guild. you can crank all available points into Evocation and Pyromancy to be devastating with a smaller variety of spells, or you can spread those many spec points over a wider variety of skills. The high con means they can access a lot more affinities, and their natural order affinity opens up several spells. Add them to Attuned for the chakras, and the boosts will give you access to even more spells.


Chaosborn

Fomor

Tuatha

Aethoss

Aethoss do not work well for this guild.

Orrid says: I have witnessed the struggle of an aspiring Aethoss OIA. They gave up. Not only do the Aethoss have a severe weakness to fire, they also have very significant reductions to spell ratings. If you insist on this race, I suggest finding a great ring of fire affinity with another incarno prior to the attempt, joining Agnihotri, wearing pyresigns, and gaining immolate/protection from elements as soon as possible. Yet I recommend you not waste your time, unless you're a masochist.--Adevna 09:11, 18 July 2011 (EDT)

Imp

Orrid says: I have not yet seen a serious attempt at an Imp OIA, yet this race has some very promising aspects. It is advised, however, that you focus on 3/4ths dodge-nuker, and 1/4th melee.--Adevna 09:14, 18 July 2011 (EDT)

Troll

Trolls start off really weak in this guild due to low int and low char. Once you get over this hurdle, the troll settles into a nice mage, able to dish out physical damage and nuke foes with spells. Also really important for the troll is the limb regen, since losing a hand in this guild is near certain death. Red claws combined with trollish strength is a good combo. The high Con also means you can go WoV and play with the affinities. Flamra armour becomes a true boon.

Orrid says: No races with low max attributes are advised for OIA; OIA is far too spec intensive for adequate progression. Melee may be a good option for this race, but OIA lacks any serious spec access to melee skills which will hinder your progression. Combine the low max attributes and OIA's spec intensive nature, and joining other spec-intensive guilds for the purposes of gaining access to melee skills (such as Maidens of the Spear) is not a wise option. Although, using Wandslingers as your primary means of attack while using OIA as support (by placing specs in slinger skills over OIA) is an option with all races. You may wish to aim for melee potential through flamra conjurations and the few buffs OIA possesses--all of which are truly fantastic buffs--and neglect casting if you insist on this particular race or races like it.--Adevna 13:33, 18 July 2011 (EDT)
