Currently in OT, how many braids would me a iksar necro require?

[Panicsferd]

I am asking this here, since I tried googling and couldn't really find anything... but I remember maybe either here or the wiki I read somewhere that being a necro iksar would mean I would need less since I'm evil.

I am currently lvl 40 and am leveling in OT and figure that while I'm here and killing berserkers I might as well save the braids to turn them in when my inv or weight has reached its limit.

I am asking here how many braids do you think I will need to go from kos to amiably to then maybe do the OT hammer quest - to get it early instead of having to wait till 60 to charm it?
