If you wish to be a special snowflake or you don't care about min/maxing, of course you don't need to provide a compelling reason because you don't care about the argument I was making, and again, that's fine play what you want. I'm not going to interrogate you as to why you didn't pick Iksar.

You said the people who don't pick Iksar should be giving compelling arguments as to why they didn't. I picked DE, so that meant me. Your statement was pretty much all-encompassing. If you meant something else, fair enough, but what you meant and what you said are two different things.

But don't try to justify that a gnome is equally as powerful/efficient as an Iksar in all circumstances, because they aren't. Regen is clearly the most beneficial stat a Necromancer can have due to the nature of Lich spells, and Iksar is the only race that provides this stat, which cannot be replaced or offset by gear or spells, like other races innate stats or abilities can be.

I've never said that. In fact I agree that the Iksar is the most efficient race for the Necro and I've said as much earlier in the thread. I've never tried to play down their regen, but what I have said is that it isn't a good enough reason to play Iksar for me.

If you didn't come for min/maxing and you REALLY care about what your race looks like (ignoring the fact that 34+ you will be a skeleton for most of your playtime), then roll whatever you wish! If you came to try to min/max and get the most efficiency and power out of your character, roll an Iksar.

Again, you're trying to assert that the reason people pick non-Iksar is because of 'fashionquest', even if you've been careful to try and avoid that term. Its not just about looks.
