The majority of end game players who are non-Iksar necromancers are primarily those that created their toons in classic, when you didn't have an Iksar option.
Erudite suffer from low stats. Low health, low vision, but really high int. Issue is, a lot of gear come Velious and even now is going to be stacked with int. Tobrin's Eyepatch, VS Gloves, Hand of the Reaper, pretty much any 10+ int main hand... There's a lot of ways to get Int, but not a lot of ways to get HP. And come Velious, the best ways to get HP will also have Int. An Erudite will hit 255 int so quickly, and all that excess int will go into the void. If they had a race with less starting int, but more health, dex for concentration checks, etc. they would get a greater benefit overall, and have the same as an Erudite (capped 255 int).
