Best race for necro

[xblade724]

Dark Elves are my fav race, but have the least populated/frustrating starting zones and really no exp quests that I recall being effective.

Gnomes...hate the bastards, but I can effectively do cb belts quests.

Erudites ... int is nice considering int items are pretty low to find on classic until higher lvls. Bad vision, shitty starting area .. I suppose I can find a port or run my happy ass to a better area .. anyone know if they are kos to elves?

I suppose I'm looking for a good low to mid game with efficient leveling as well.

Considering bards are gimped, I'm considering making a necro instead after getting 1v1'd by a pet when 100% ready and losing. Would make a mage and be OP like every other mage, but nahh.. I also don't like mana issues, so necros and their mana >> hp make downtime not too bad eh?

Overall, what do you guys think about necros on this server
