Necro, how do you not choose Iksar?

[Swish]

iksars look mighty fine in a well tailored robe too... fashionquest dictates them to being the best choice, especially if you can get that cloth/animal skull headpiece.

but the run animation and most of their combat animations are awful, granted necro doesn't have to deal with combat stuffs after those early levels.

now a human vs. iksar monk fashionquest contest? human hands down

I would roll a dark elf for style.

Then i would play my iksar and or one of my shamans or my enchanters or epic mage or druid to farm stuff.

Hmm

Well actually you should try a necro that is not an Iksar.
You are right . it is a harder challenge.

And if you can survive the extra punishment as a Necormancer, (non iksar).
you will be on average a better player.

Is it better to be an iksar???... ( I think it is safer ).
If you are raiding, then .. be an Iksar. .. other wise.. .. /shrug.. < your choice is here >

In my experience so far, up to 47...if you're more of an AFK player, taking a lot of breaks or camping set spawn timers as opposed to farming none stop, I think other races level faster, obv., and are just as easy.

50+ I can't speak for, but I'm sure Iksar takes off, especially if you are trying to farm as much as possible in the allotted playtime you have.

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

The only challenge with HP for me on a DE necro is at raids when there is nothing to cast leech spells on. I just leech off Gzaz, any well geard shaman with torpor can keep themselves healed while i twitch the clerics :P

It was only until several hours into the raid, at Vulak that I told him I had been helaing off him.

Anyway, regen is nice, iksar necro are deff superior, but in the end the work gets done. so shrug

I feel like you just logged into my account, wtf.

Erudite base mana pool is superior to Iksar by a lot. At any rate this can be useful for when soloing and mob resists a lot or you just need to burn some thing down. That being said Iksar are better on a mob for an extended period where mana regen/hp regen matter more.

In the end the difference is Iksar can be more lazy at managing taps and lich while Erudite with leach dot up are almost on par with Iksar but have a much larger mana pool to play with.

Only time I would say Iksar over another race is when FDing with lich.

Horribly unintelligent

its not that hard to get to the 200 INT soft cap even as an iksar with all starting points in STA.

(but all STA is a bad choice for iksars still -- its better to hit 200 sooner so you can start focusing on +Mana gear)
