If I re-roll Iksar

[Critical Error]

Lets face it, Iksar necro is the most bad ass mofo in the game. Unfortunately I had to skip the Iksar and just do the necro. I was wondering if it might be worth it to re-roll once Iksar come out.

Right now I have like no money, gear, high lvls. But Im thinking that by Oct I could at least have my current necro at 50, with "meh" gear, and able to farm. That should mean that if I re-roll Id automatically be better off than my current necro for leveling since I wouldnt be in almost full cloth the whole time.

Next up would be the leveling part. Right now I have no clue where to go, what my char is capable of, and how to get most places. Also, I have nobody to help me out. I have some RL friends that might help with PLs, but I dont know how strong certain classes are at PLing (efficiently for exp/hour, not safe exp). And lastly, Im not sure how noticeable that Iksar penalty will be, even with the PL.

So based on me being a completely new player now, how efficient would it be to re-roll when Iksar come out?
