Dark Elves are the best. No hate here. Play whatever you think is coolest or whatever you like from a roleplay perspective, etc.

Played a DE on live, I play a DE here. Being evil adds a little spice to the game, especially at lower levels.

Another way to look at it is that you actually have nuts to kick.

Going for the optimal class is just trying to make things easier.

OP, at least you're not a human.

Human necros are cool too. You could have been a Human Paladin or a Warrior or even a Cleric. But you, a normal human being, chose to become a NECROMANCER. You must be one evil sick twisted bastard. You had choices, opportunities... yet you chose the dark arts of necromancy.

Iksars level faster than every other race solo because of the regen. Iksar regen = less mana to heal yourself through taps = less time meditating.

If you don't like the character model - you go skele illusion 99% of the time at lvl 34 with Call of Bones, so it isn't that big of a deal.

Also - trying something new can be fun. I played a half elf bard before so I had no real issues with banking/vendoring. Now with my Iksar Necro, knowing the ins and outs of where I can bank/vendor is pretty fun.

While necro is one of the few classes that has a definitive "best race", you will still do fine as any race you like. My roomy just rerolled his 41 DEF necro to an Iksar and he couldn't be happier. There is an exp penalty to deal with, but you kill more stuff and with less downtime because of the regen so it balances itself out. (Until 60, where it doesn't matter how long it took you to get there, AND now you have regen)

So basically, play the race you think looks cool. People aren't going to dislike you, or not invite you to groups based on race. You WILL notice a big difference in soloing though. Only you can decide what is more important to you.

DE waaay more classic. I have a human monk for the same reason.

if you are on top of your life tap's / life tap dot, you can keep lich on the whole time. I have been duo'ing with my rl necro friend who is a dark elf since we were 20ish. He does fine. He is 57ish? Not sure the regen would have helped us that much.

As a Iksar Necro, after playing a DE on live, life is a lot easier as a Iksar! But play what you want!
