rolling a necro

[reppa]

What race should I pick and why?

Pro's and con's if you can. Everything leads me to iksar but I want to here the peoples view.

[Arterian]

Iksar is min/max. Human or Erudite for rarity. Dark elf for style.

[Uteunayr]

Pretty much what was said above.

Also note that Iksars get the most glorious Feign Death animation in the game, it is fantastic.

[Vandamwtc]

Don't forget about gnomes too!

[reppa]

always forget about gnomes... yuck

[Vandamwtc]

Vile gnomes. I prefer dark elves. Great necros, not quite as good as ikky, but everyone and their mother has a ikky though.

[Daldaen]

Iksar. The regen is killer.

[Tuljin]

If you don't want Iksar, Erudite with max STA isn't a bad choice. Iksar regen is the best though.

I suddenly want to see and compare the different fd animations.

Dark Elves fall over onto their sides and curl up like weak and pathetic creatures. Iksars do an overly Shakespearean fall onto their back, their leg flies up into the air and then drops down dead, and their arms fling out to the sides. It is glorious.

EDIT: I found http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-SQvDP5xh5c this. The human animation for FD (also at the start of the video) is the same as Dark Elf. Look at how much better Iksar is.
