Getting started
 

So I made a DE necromancer. I am level 3 and I been slowly leveling to 4. Is there a better area I should be in apart from the starting area? And any tips on making money; I could use bags so I dont have to make so many trips back.

Or better yet; what would YOU do if you were to make a DE necro from scratch?

Once you get your level 4 pet and meditate things will start to get better. Necros are like diesel engines. They take a while to get going but once they do they are nearly unstoppable.

Stick with it - the class definitely starts out slow. Level 12 is a perfect level to go on an adventure to Kurns and stay until 20-21. Levels 12 and 34 are huge power spike levels.

Okay. I'll keep at it. I used to play a necromancer a long time ago and I just want to relive the kunark soloing I used to do. Hehe. Soooon.

Make sure to kill every bear you see.. They have a chance to drop high quality skins and players will buy them in ec for around 30p each. Probably the best way to make plat under lvl 10.

Oooh good idea. Thank you sooo much for that; i'll definitely keep an eye out!!

Get Sense the Dead spell. Kill skeletons. Sell bone chip stacks to higher level necros in East Commons (one zone away from Nektulos). 10pp for a stack will get you all your basic bags or boxes from merchants.

Playing any caster class really blows for the first 12 to 14 levels honestly, some even longer.

My advice, once you hit level 12, buy your most important level 16 spells and then make the trip to Kurns Tower. Stay there until 20 and don't loot anything except bone chips or solists wands if you get lucky. Once you are 20 head back to civilization, grab your spells, sell bone chips for it if you need money for spells but try to keep as many as possible for later on.

I'm having fun with my druid so far. I wouldn't say it blows as of level 5ish. :D

That's just because you don't realize how bad you have it yet lol.

Lol, care to illuminate me? :D
