Necromancer Race Choice?

[Ivory]

This is so silly!! You are looking on the surface...but missing the greater deeper details of picking a class and game dynamics!!

Gnomes may not have your fancy pantsy regen....but gnomes do have something else even greater than gnome vision!!

You see, gnomes are powered by awesomeness and sunshine!! Because of that, they can inspire entire raids of people with gnome antics!!

Sure, an iksar is better at sitting down for an hour and being a mana battery for a raid. BUT a gnome can gnome during the raid!!! Making gnome conga lines!! Or doing other gnome things!!! Very important to keep moral of everyone high!! Way more important than a slight increase to efficiency in afk mana batterying.

Don't underestimate the hidden social aspects of the game!! Class choice and roleplaying (gnomes being one of the most awesome and best) is actually really strong.
