Swords and Maces racial specialization means Human for Rogue+Warrior+Paladin is the best race ever!!!
Hit Chance (6% is the soft cap against bosses if you have at least 305 weapon skill (HUMAN), otherwise you need 9% for capping, which is when your special attacks always hit. Hit loses value after hitting this point).
So Human saves you 3% hit points without needing it.
