If torpor wasn't in the game, there might be an argument for Troll/Iksar shamans. But once you hit 60, hp regen doesn't matter all that much.

Not every Shaman makes level 60, and not all those who reach 60 acquire Torpor. As such, racial regeneration is very much a concern for many Shaman players. For Necromancers, if you don't much care about your race, pick Iksar. I feel Iksar/Necromancer is the most advantaged race/class choice in the game. The only reason to choose a non-Iksar Necromancer is if someone specifically wants to pick an alternate race. The other races can and do work, but Iksar is clearly better than any other option for that class by a significant margin.
Ultravision is largely irrelevant because a) Necromancers get spells with which to see in the dark anyway, and b) The Titanium client used by Project1999 has brighter than classic nights. True darkness occurs only inside a relative handful of indoor dungeons. The Iksar racial experience penalty is a straight 20%, which will to some degree be mitigated by the superior regeneration rates. Class penalties are a thing of the past and have been for some time so some folks seem to be operating under bad assumptions.
