Necro, how do you not choose Iksar?
Seriously. I'm not the minmaxer guy but when you have Lich spells... How do you not go Iksar?

Do any necro races have exp penalties?

Some people rolled Necromancer before Kunark was released and never rolled another. Some people rolled a Necro before Kunark and rerolled and releveled an Iksar.
The Iksar regen is great but people still roll non-Iksar necros and still make it to 60 just fine. Because everybody is min/max crazy around here everyone goes Iksar. Some people still roll what they want to roll despite the superiority of the Iksar regen. I have played many hours of high level dungeons with both Iksar and non-Iksar necros (who are also excellent players) and if youre not calculating potential XP per hour soloing any Necromancer can do their job just fine even without regen. | ||

I do really love their starting areas (heck I love all of Kunark). I accept and understand that Iksar's racial bonus is better suited to Necro's than any other race, but that isn't a good enough reason for me to play one. It all comes down to aesthetics I suppose, and I'm not taken by the look of the Iksar. I play a Dark Elf because I love the lore and the fact that they treat being evil as a religion, I like Neriak and 3rd Gate music, and they just look cool to me.
I am a min maxer I suppose, in as much as I'll try to find the best spots for me to xp, or I'm always looking for loot (hard to do with 70pp to your name hah) but I guess that doesn't extend to racial bonuses. Maybe I will regret it at 60, I don't know yet. But for now, I've undoubtably made the best choice. First post, yay! | ||

EXP penalty is good enough reason to pick any of the other races that can be necros. Greater solo exp gained with the Iksar is a relatively even balance with the exp penalty.
Iksar faction is also a total pain in the ass and wastes alot of time factioning so that you can bank and vendor places that could be used for other things.

I leveled on live pre-kunark and loved my DE necro so I re-rolled one here for nostalgia. I never had any issues with liching or efficiency. When you look at half these min-max things its all naked or under geared toons and then a DE has to do an extra lifetap so it becomes soooooo inefficient /end sarcasm.
I all end game gear on my DE and had no issues twitching everyone. | ||
