Stick with ERU! If you see Ssessth in-game. HMU for some bone chips or plat. I'm nowhere near rich, but I may have a little bit more plat than a level eight (untwinked) toon has on him.
If your sig is up to date, then your necro is 44 and doesn't have the 49 Lich spell yet. That spell draws a lot more health than Call of Bones. Also, Iksar regeneration takes off like a rocket post 50, where as before its only of marginal benefit. The difference in regeneration from level 49 to 51 is 6 hp/tick. That's more than adding a Zlandicar's Heart to a non-Iksar race (an item that costs ~150k). Then, at 60 you're looking at an extra 6 on top of that.

I'm not trying to disagree with your point of playing what you want though, that is the most important thing.

On the shaman regeneration front, sure leveling up an untwinked character the Iksar/Troll races have a definite benefit, but if you have the money, a Barbarian/Ogre with Fungi Tunic & staff will have over 90% of the regeneration Troll/Iksar would have with the same gear up until level 50. From then on it tapers off to at worst 78% from levels 55-59. With that level of gear, I really think the Ogre's FSI shines. But again, thats assuming you have lots of money, which not everyone does. I'm just trying to make the argument that FSI is the min/max racial-trait over regeneration, and to think otherwise is to again throw subjective preference into the mix in the same way of picking a not-Iksar necromancer race (which is fine, people should play what they get the most enjoyment from).
