"Best" race for a necro

[Uteunayr]

Yeah, the xp penalty basically is nullified by:

1) You're a necro, you're soloing, you're getting XP faster than most classes out there.

2) You can kill more shit as an Iksar, so you're getting more instances of XP.

I leveled Sesserdrix to 55 faster than I ever did Uteunayr, but that also may be because I know locations. What I can say is that leveling at Nobles for Uteunayr (DE: 4-5 enemies, 2 Nobles + 1 Isa + 2 Bards) and for Sesserdrix (Iksar: 6-7 enemies, 3 Nobles + 1 Isa + 2 Bards + 1 Front Gate Guy), Sesserdrix's mana sustain made the leveling go about the same pace. So, at least for that camp, regen was able to mitigate the entire slow down of the XP penalty.
