yeah, go ahead and reroll. not to get too sentimental and gay, but this game is a lot more fun when it's the character you named, created, leveled and accomplished.
Ah yes, glad you reminded me. Forgot it was gay to care about stuff.

Keep in mind that the -32% XP penalty that Iksar suffer is heavily counteracted by the increased efficiency that Regen provides to your Lich efficiency. In my tests with Uteu and Sesser, I leveled faster in the 49+ range on an Iksar than a Non-Iksar because I didn't have to use mana inefficient lifetaps nearly as often. While this doesn't do anything to help the XP penalty from 1-48, it does help you level faster in the time when it is hardest.

Further, XP penalty is temporary. Bad faction is temporary. You can repair FP/Qeynos merchants quite fast, and you can tag onto Lucan kills to make NFP your home. Circlet of Shadow will get you past guards, and FD will let you bank anywhere. Call of Bones will make Neriak Amiable to you, letting you get coffins, and you can even turn in Red Wine in 3rd Gate if you really want to repair the rep outside of skelly form.

Totally. Because this server is FULL of gay people caring about their character, and straight people who just don't give a shit about their character. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Back on topic though, I'd argue that it comes down to your level of alt-itis.

What I mean by that is, if this is going to be the one and only character that you ever play, Iksar is the clear choice. In that case you won't mind putting in all that extra time to level an Iksar to back to your gnome's level (and the extra xp beyond that because of the penalty) because in the long run it will be worth it, and then once you reach 60 you'll have time to fix factions (if you even want to bother). But if you stick with the gnome as your only char, you'll forever be wishing he had regen.

On the other hand, if this is going to be just one character of many for you, who cares if your necro is slightly-less-than-maximally efficient? A gnome necro can farm loots for your other chars just fine, and will get to the level where he can farm the best loots faster than a re-rolled Iksar would.

Every non iksar necro should reroll. Iksars are boss.

Or you could be a gnome and just enjoy going about anywhere you want.
You can do that with an iksar and a shrink potion.

Good point. I have a 60 and 55 level characters but i just dont have time to play and raid anymore. I usually put in a few hours, couple times a week and with such little time i found that soloing on a necro still let's me enjoy the game without any real time commitments. After reading all this i think id enjoy re rolling and the adventure back to the top with an iksar.
