Imperial Race question

I have some crowns to use and noticed I can buy the Imperial Race option for toons. What does the Imperial bring to the table? Different passives? Better for certain classes?

    Passive Racial skills:

    Diplomat - Increases experience gain with One-Hand and Shield skill line by 15%. Increases gold gained by 1%.

    Tough - Increases Max Health by 600/1200/2000 (unlocked at Imperial levels 5/15/30)

    Imperial Mettle - Increases Max Stamina 600/1200/2000 (unlocked at Imperial levels 10/20/40)

    Red Diamond - Reduces the cost of all your abilities by 1/2/3%.
    When you deal direct damage, you heal yourself for 100/200/333 and restore 100/200/333 Magicka and Stamina.
    This effect can occur once every 5 seconds. (unlocked at Imperial levels 25/35/50)

    Imperials are tanks, they used to be fairly good, currently they are not, and they have never been best.
    Used to see a lot of them in PVP, no idea about now.

    I don't think you can go wrong with choosing Imperial as a tank. I mean I use a Redguard for tanking so...

    My main is an Imperial Warden DPS and I love him. The extra health is great and the 3% reduction to cost is for everything including ultimate abilities.

    Red Diamond passive is great on No-CP PvP builds and builds that relay on off-regen (block casting for example) in general.

    I have an imperial stamsorc that's a solo specialist. Mostly vMA now, but solo'd all base dungeons and craglorn group content (except vdsa) with it. Good survivability but midling dps.

    Hmm that sounds interesting. I'll research that thanks!
