On the raid side, this is largely a current day P99-specific issue due to P99's modern culture of zerg raiding and trainout/lack of clear tactics. Hence it might be subject to eventual change if the ruleset is ever updated. Regeneration from any source (racial, worn, either nice and they stacked) was great on the feigner classes back in the original game or in years past on P99 when things like wipes happened and lengthy traditional corpse runs took place. In such conditions it was not unheard of to spend 10-20 min feigned in place slowly regenerating. This is the tank board so that applies to shadowknights.

On warriors my own favorite racial trait in large group (especially raid) scenarios is physical size: It's helpful for everyone to be able to pick their main tank who'll be controlling positioning/etc out from a crowd. That's hard to do if the tank is some stupid little dwarf or gnome. Ogres and trolls are good, barbarians okay, medium races ho-hum in that aspect, short races are annoying. The more people the more of an annoyance it becomes. That's the only trait anyone else is going to notice and even then they ultimately won't care THAT much.
