Ofcourse, if there is a problem. I have my 2 forms of UV, and 94928 forms of IRV.
I logged on my human monk the other day and could not see a damn think in Permafrost.
Could have just been the monitor though.
But, for looks I might just have to be human.
Btw, does anyone have that faction site for iksars?
Ferrel!
My apologies to Ferrel for the hijack. 
I honestly don't know the faction site off the top of my head, because I have never personally worked faction up as I felt it was worthless. Or it was easy faction work.
Screw all the iguana monks...go for the tried and true HUMAN STYLE! You can get light sources, you are liked most of world and you look sexy. And human XP bonus.

There was much rejoicing when Nammy the Namtar said this:
And human XP bonus.
Humans don't get an XP bonus. Only Halflings do.
The faction guide for Iksar is here.

Tier had this to say about Knight Rider:
Human:
For nightvision, you can just get Ultravision/Infravision items. - Those usually aren't exactly perfect for monks. I'd go iksar so I wouldn't have to worry about that and could focus on gear instead.For regen, you have a fungi tunic.- Natural regen stacks with spells and fungi - completely irrelevant.For AC, you have plenty of armor.- Natural AC stacks with armor. This is completely irrelevant.
But first, as we say here in the North, "Show us 'yer tits!"
What Iksars have:
What Humans have:
This was just made off the top of my head, though, so I may be wrong.

Ferrel painfully thought these words up:
Wait a sec, you can skip all the crap to get the robe just by offing one of the bothers?
Indeed. They used to drop the robe all the time, but since they upped the spawn rate on Qwinn it may take a few times. Hell, you can get a RotLC at Lv.1 that way.

Everyone wondered WTF when Ferrel wrote:

Yes, you can. Although it's an uncommon drop now, beats the hell out of 20-30 hour raster camps.
1. I was informed today by a guild monk that monk AC does, indeed, soft cap. So the Iksar AC bonus is only useful early. My apologies to the monks I argued with that this was otherwise.
2. To me, they're pretty. Granted, they have no tail, but we learn to compromise.
3. I have the means to replace the lack of Infravision
4. Im looking to get the character to 50 in a week and then to 60 in 2 more. Iksar would slow that up slightly.
5. Assuming I dont kill the brothers. A human monk would do less faction work.
6. The Whistling fists arent that attractive to me.
7. Iksar monks will only end up with 5 regen more a tick at 60 (Or so I was told). While that is a large number, I'm not sure Its worth being ugly for.
I'm going to have to look at models over again, etc, but Im shifting towards human.
Ferrel!

it's hell to be human at night.
Again, coming from someone that doesn't PLAY one. Save your opinions for things you know about.

Ferrel said this about your mom:

Only explanation I can think of is you didn't have a lightsource of any kind. Lightsources actually work the BEST in dungeons.

De lid g am ond had this to say about (_|_):
60 in 3 weeks....you suck
I agree with Deli here

JooJooFlop had this to say about Optimus Prime:
Vision WAS an issue before the last change to human vision.
Human vision has NEVER been the issue everyone makes it out to be if you have a lightsource. The worst it gets is a tad annoying in SOME conditions.
Ferrel!
I absolutly HATED when Kunark came out and made human monks looks so blah.
Screw j00 Iksars the humans will kick your tails.

ACES! Another post by Ferrel:
Actually I had a greater light stone :\

well there ya go. ^_^
At level 60, again with no extra regen, a Human regens 4 hp standing, 5 feigned, and 7 sitting. An Iksar regens 12 standing, 13 feigned, and 18 sitting. Adding a fungi means +15 regen. Adding in AA regen, you get +6 regen for Humans and +12 for Iksar. Iksar have a vast advantage when it comes to hp regeneration.
Point 2...you don't need to do any faction work for the Robes or the epic, Ferrel. The headbands are not no drop and are easily completeable by that level 60 Enchanter you said you'd have tagging along. You just need to get the components for the quests.
Point 3...and this is no insult to you at all. But if you're planning to get your Monk to 60 in 3 weeks, I assume you're just making one for the damage and not for the pulling. I highly suggest taking longer to 60 if you plan to pull in any raid situation, which I doubt from the way you want to level.
Point 4...all classes have an ac softcap or so it's said. A Monk's softcap is right around 1100 ac, which isn't that hard to get if you have better then average gear at 55+. But I'd like to point out that an Iksar's natural AC of an extra 45 points means you can sacrifice an ac point here or there for better resists or hp. Just something to consider.
Please note that this is not an attack on you or anyone's decision for choosing or a Human or leaning towards a Human...I'm just pointing things out that may or may not matter to you. 
And Iksars are good looking, IMO. :P
