I think it's important to clearly quantify each pro and con for iksar on the wiki. As a newly returning player, I thought of necro as iksar only based on the strong recommendation of the wiki. A 5% improvement in efficiency is pretty big, obviously, but the cons are hated everywhere, requires 20% more kills per level up, and starts in kunark (higher hp mobs).

Here's how the wiki influenced me. I'm leveling a shaman, which I absolutely love, but I need alts to play around on when I'm bored of the shm or when I'm waiting for a spawn (totemic helm, fml). I wanted a class that could comfortably solo. When considering which class to choose, I also needed to account for race as well. I narrowed my choice down to magician or necro, but ultimately chose magician because I didnt like the iksar racial penalties.

But if I hadn't realized that the 'iksar only' message on the wiki was simply for min/maxers, I might have compared gnome mage with erudite necro, and made a necro in the end...
