In that case, each to his own.

Been a month, wonder if the original poster might pop in with a status update. SK is a popular alt class, but few of them make it past the middle levels as players realize it's a class that requires a lot of investment to get the most out of it.

Sure - fair for an Update!

Cruising along at level 23. It is my "alt" so have been spending lots of time on my Enchanter (level 45 now) and using Mirellee as a break / change of pace. I actually ground out Ak'Anon faction so I could buy Necro spells from there (wasn't hard, levelled at the mino 4 camp at zone line) but now over in Lake of Ill Omen. I was able to kit out myself with many things my Enchanter was able to farm (hero bracers, etc.) but I did spend a chunk to get a Velium Axe of Venomous Brood (I think?) that procs the 85 point DD. That's been a nice addition overall.

It's fun enough - I prefer small groups to soloing but able to solo when need be, at a pretty easy pace. Enjoying the class for sure. For some reason really excited for 30, and Feign Death. For some reason that feels like it will be a difference maker. (For what, I don't know - heh!)
