Enchanter: A very viable choice, however, High Elf edges them out for best since +cha is harder to acquire than +int. Human is up there too but doesn't have a super clear advantage, probably a tie.
Magician: No truly clear winner, but I'd concede erudite if you pressed it. The margins are extremely slim.
Necromancer: Iksar master race. Beyond that bertoxx following gnomes are actually very well tolerated compared to CT & Inny followers (dubious/apprehensive in a lot of places where other necros would be KoS). From a lvl 60 not caring about faction standpoint the Erudite probably takes second because of erudite specific itemization.
Shadowknight: Ogre, Troll are very clear winners. Human and Iksar runners up, though that dex/agil on the iksar i'm sure helps. Erudite and Dark Elf can squabble over last place although I'd probably give it to the erudites because of how far behind their agility/dex is to the DE.
Paladin: Dwarf and Human clearly have the edge. The high elf and erudite can have a sissy fight over who is weaker though.
Wizard: See mage.

I was trying to say Erudites have the highest Int, so would make the best casters.
Clearly I didn't think it out far enough to consider all of these other variables, particularly Cha for Enchanters and the regen of Iksar Necros.
I still think they're a fairly under-appreciated race, and have great starting stats, awesome looking armor (particularly on SK's/Paladins), and a really cool city/starting area.
