Quick question regarding necro race

[Vicatin]

I had a 54 DE necro as my first toon on server. Now i have a 53 ikky Necro as well. Dont make the mistake i did

Play what is most fun for you personally. Obviously non-iksar necros are enjoyable considering how many there are.

Yes, you'll be perfectly fine, as long as you can accept that you will always be worse in a very real and quantifiable way.

May as well toss out all non ogre tanks and shamans, all non high elf clerics, non Erudite int casters , and human monks then. Not like you can be a successful toon without being min maxed

My Erudite Cleric does a wonderful job btw [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

cmon now, high elf cleric has no clear racial ability over an erudite cleric. Iksar racial regen is a clear racial ability and happens to synergize well with a necromancer.

Erudites don't make the best enchanters.
Ogre shamans don't unequivocally make the best shamans (troll wins imo)

I could go on and on but no other class/race pairing is as undeniably "best" as iksar and necro. The only class/race pairing that comes close is iksar/monk, but even that example is not undeniably "best" to the same degree.

For necromancers health = mana. Regen = health = mana = unparalleled efficiency.

High elf has the highest starting wis+cha(combined) totals iirc. Good stats for a cleric.

DE Hide OP though.

[Nycon43]

yeah I get the stats advantage but thats not really an ability like i'm talking about. It's trivial for a cleric of any race to cap wis. Will be harder for an erudite sure but nothing major like regen is on a necro.

That's valid but having a higher wis/cha total lets you cap easier and gear for more raw mana/health/resistance as well as creation starter point freedom.
