D&D: Best Race for Every Class: Page 3 of 12

D&D Best Race
Elven rangers are a common sight in the D&D universe.


3. Wizard 

Best Stat Based Choice:  Human, Gnome, or Elf

Wizards dedicate their lives and energy to the study of arcane skills and all manner of magic. Wizards can cast powerful spells, and illusions to break almost all the rules of ordinary reality. They need to spend long hours of study and search for special tomes and scrolls to learn their spells. 

My choice: Gnomes are the absolute best wizard because they are not very powerful physically, but have enormous intellects (+2 intelligence) and Gnome Cunning that allow for a huge encyclopedic lore in all manner of magical matters. They also have a natural curiosity that makes them tinkers and great scholars.
