    Wizard and barbarian are the most popular. Sorc is also pretty popular.

    Note that from a general standpoint, you are asking the question backwards: people start out with what class they want to play, and then decide which race would be best for it.

    Bards, Clerics, and Paladins seem to be the most unpopular for Warforged.

    Aelvara - Bagel - Bagelbot - Daarna - Kraldor - Minibagel - Uberlute - Wounder

    Warforged can not remove their plating, so if they take mithril body or adamantine body they will have an inherent armor check penalty. If they are in composite plating then they have no armor check penalty.

    Angelus_Dead is one of the forum metagamers. I'd imagine his perspective is "Warforged get no bonus to DEX so they would suffer more than the other races here". If you aren't into metagaming then I wouldn't worry too much about those statements.

    Besides, a player is more important than the build anyhow, so long as they can utilize a build well.

    WF can be successful as any class. Their weakest links though are those classes requiring a high Wis or Cha... as they recieve penalties to those.

    Try to think about what it is you want and then match up classes and abilities to that desire.

    Don't be afraid of Multi Classing ... but be aware of what you are doing and plan ahead.

    WF Wizards are quite popular because they have no penalty to Intelligence and Wizards cast Repair spells... Self Healing is a major plus.

    Barbs are popular because WF have a Power Attack Enhancment that stacks with the Barb Power Attack.

    WF work well as Tactical Fighters because they have a Tactics Enhancment that covers Stunning Blow, Trip and Sunder

    WF Rogues are nothing to sneeze at either

    Think outside the box a little and match things up where you want them.

    Personally I like 3pal/1sorc/12fighter(with 4 more Pal in the level 20 future)... but hey that's me

    That is hilariously untrue, and appears to be founded in a spectacular misunderstanding of what "meta" means.

    The fact that elves and halflings do better in dexterity-focused professions is not at all something characters in the world of Eberron are unaware of.

    As long as you enjoy less accuracy, less damage, less AC, less healing, and fewer spellpoints, they're fine.

    Warforged have a penalty to wisdom and charisma, which tends to make them worse as clerics and sorcerers.
    They also have a penalty to divine healing, which makes them worse as divine spellcasters (primarily clerics).
    They have a "bonus" to arcane repairing, which makes them better as wizards and sorcerers.

    So the charisma penalty roughly cancels out the self-repair benefit, leaving them decent sorcerers overall. They're even better as wizards, except insofar as the wizard class is overall weaker than the sorcerer class.

    i know of the elf and halfling thing but most elves are wizards and wizards dont care anything sorta for dex cause main one is int and most halflings are rouges and rouges are mainly dex and int cause of some of the skills
