Necro cash camps while leveling?

I've posted this several times. While leveling I tend to avoid drops and focus on vendor trash as I found it more consistent.

Kurns 12-19 -sell bonechips, chance at Solist wand
Warsilik's Woods, Giant fort 19-29 -lots of vendor goods, chance at forest loop
South Karana, Treants 29-35 -easy 5-10k depending on your luck
West Commons, Druids 34-39 -almost always drop 2x fine steel and sometimes gems, vendor right there.
Oggok Guards and Feerrott/Oasis Specters 39-46 -guards always drop 6p worth of junk, specs can drop bronze scythe for 12p.
Grobb Guards 46-51 -always drops at least 11p worth of junk.
Felwithe Guards 51-54 -guards always drop at least 20p worth of junk.
Wakening Lands, Faerie Dragons and Goos 54-56 - drops quest gems, worth 100p-1.5k. Goos can drop 0-330p worth of junk each (gogo double sapphire necklace).
Wakening Lands, Sentient Armor 56+ -More quest gems (only ever seen 100p-500p variety) or armor (vendor for ~10p/sell for 100p with patience).

All of these spots have vendors either in zone or adjacent. None of them rely on one money drop. Consistent Exp/plat is the name of the game.

From 1-56 Visko has earned ~90k without selling anything big. There are other camps that work out well for their level (top of my head, ancient croc in upperguk) but I'll take consistent vendor trash over praying for drops/my bad luck.

Edited to add: Visko's wearing the same gear at 56 that he was at level 1, ~5k worth of "twink" gear. AFK camps are great for undergeared/nontwinked casters. Twinked casters really only benefit by having a larger mana/Hp pool.. pointless if you're killing maybe 1-3 things then AFKing for respawn.

this is awesome information thanks!

i have been messing around on this server for some time but i have not managed to get a character past lvl 25 as i have had some bad luck finding groups or by the time i find one i only have limited play time...

so i finally decided to roll a necro and i am enjoying it so far.. i am only lvl 12 and he is totally naked but soloing is possible and downtime is minimal which is a plus for me...

i only have two items i really want to buy prior to lvl 50 and they are journeyman's boots and circlet of shadow..

if i follow this leveling guide will it be possible? which do you think i should get first?

I am thinking boots since i can already invis but insta invis is amazing too!

boots and circlet are about 11k to 12K combined by what level do you think i will have that kind of plat if i followed this guide?

I spent ~5k twinking Visko, and by 36 I had made enough to purchase a CoS (2k back then) and Jboots (7k just like now). Realistically if you follow what I posted, you should be able to buy both by the time you get to Oggok guards. By the time I left Felwithe guards (54) I had geared up two other characters with ~10k each and also purchased 3 tinkerer bags.

Good luck!

Any one who plays an SK or a necro or think they might in the future should be getting their pre nerf CoS's asap unless they want to pay whatever the hell the resellers are going to want after the nerf that's happening soon. I'm not going to speculate on where the pre-nerf CoS price is going to go after that, but it isn't going to be 3k regardless of how long muh koonark went on.
