Since they're nerfing the amount of penetration Sharpened gives people are saying Crit is going to be the thing to focus on, and Khajiit gives you, what is it, an extra 8%?
@ArchMikem hearing the same some say everyone with go nirnhoned or precise and maybe infused when the horns dlc drops I don't know who comes up with these dumb ideas for the game it's pathetic.
Khajiits are fast and deadly in attacks from stealth, no idea how Redguards do this since my Redguard is a Werewolf but they both have decent dps due to correct sets and abilities. Changing race only because you feel your dps is bad is not a solution.

Depends on style.
If ganking, Khajiit is very nice, so is Bosmer.
For anything else, Orsimer or Redguard might be bit better.
Khajiit has reduced stealth detection radius and bonus damage from stealth, that is why I picked it for my sNB triple proc ganker. On the other hand, it has no bonus stamina that Bosmer or Redguard/Orsimer have. Bosmer have very nice sustain and benefits of more damage from stealth/less detection radius, but also 6% more stamina than Khajiit. I dislike Bosmers, so I didnt roll one.
Redguards have solid stamina passive return on melee attacks, and also 10% stamina more than Khajiit. It is a race I dislike and I refuse to make a redguard char.
Orsimer have 6% bonus stamina and also 6% bonus health compared to Khajiit, with 4% more melee damage and faster sprint. Anyone not interested in cloak only action might like this one best.
