If the regen benefit of Iksar wasn't a good enough to roll one, what benefit (whether it be subjective or objective) did your race pick yield that outweighed the regen and lead you to pick that other race.
For me, there were a number of reasons.

1) Neriak, I like that city. Even though you don't spend much time there unless you're banking, selling or getting spells, the time I do spend there I like. Its got a cool atmosphere.

2) Friends started in Freeport, so it was easy to hook up with them. EC for SoW's, North Ro for bone chips, Befallen, Oasis, boat to Faydwer for Unrest and Mistmoore.

3) DE Lore. They practise evil as their religion, and as individuals they're very self centred. It seems like a decent fit for a Necro.

4) To me, they look cool. I know others prefer Iksar for their looks. More power to you if you do.

I played DE and Iksar on live. Got the DE to 50. Then rolled an Iksar, got to 65 and raided pop. Now I'm back playing again, and this time around I'm taking it easy. I done my fair share of min maxing, now I just play what feels right, rather than whats optimal.
