Plat farming

[Murmus]

For overall plat farming, i.e. vendor loot(not named item farming) which would be a better class, mage(non epic) or necro? elaborate on your answer please

Magician.

Necro, because they aren't entirely reliant on their pets to do anything and have superior utility for moving through and dealing with dungeons.

what dungeons are good for vendor trash

[Tecmos Deception]

Sebilis? There's like 8 different spots bugs can spawn, and they poop out 80-200pp vendor gems/jewelry constantly, with gems you would want to sell to players or JC yourself dropping ocassionally as well.

I don't really understand why you'd fixate on this specific issue though.

Mages are better at sea furies I think which seems to be what you are asking. Necros better at everything indoors. Enchanters are better at both

This about sums it up. If you want a sea-fury farming whore destined to be a coh bot buried at the bottom of sleeper's tomb roll a mage...

otherwise, go chanter or necro.

I'd have to disagree with Enchanters being better than necro's. Enchanters can solo a lot of named stuff well but one mess up (early break or early summon) and we're dead while necro's mess up and they just pretend to be dead. Overall they have better ability to heal and a lot better mana regen.

I used to solo lodizal a lot on live (dire charm) when I could find him up and made a million or two when a million was a lot but been trying to solo him on beta (with charmed Captain Nalot double 450 bs) and can barely get him to 50% before I OOM or die.

Necro probably couldnt' solo him but shaman definitely could from what I recall prior to Luclin.

For farming non named loot mobs though, average geared necro's are just gonna be more efficient with constant heals and awesome mana regen you aren't going to have downtime like Shaman and Enchanter.

Necro can't solo HS South named like Ench.

Necro might be a bit safer/efficient at farming easier stuff but meh.

I've soloed Embalming Fluid with my 60 Necro.
