I do really love their starting areas (heck I love all of Kunark). I accept and understand that Iksar's racial bonus is better suited to Necro's than any other race, but that isn't a good enough reason for me to play one. It all comes down to aesthetics I suppose, and I'm not taken by the look of the Iksar. I play a Dark Elf because I love the lore and the fact that they treat being evil as a religion, I like Neriak and 3rd Gate music, and they just look cool to me.
I am a min maxer I suppose, in as much as I'll try to find the best spots for me to xp, or I'm always looking for loot (hard to do with 70pp to your name hah) but I guess that doesn't extend to racial bonuses. Maybe I will regret it at 60, I don't know yet. But for now, I've undoubtably made the best choice.
First post, yay!
