No boots of deep thought for the Aura of Battle worn effect on your perfect build?! Th ose boots are like made for your setup lol.

Try going to cazic thule and pulling the maze. Tons of stuff in there and most is solo pulling too.

Any safe spot to pull to?

The door is typically recommended. I've done the wizard portal too as long as I kept track of Radiant, who is the only wanderer (and a rogue).

I am having an amazing time leveling my SK.

SKs are great tanks but by 30, my boneknight was knocking down 13 spawn, level 24-28, every 16.5 minutes.

Ya, the door towards the entrance. Pull it right next to the door and there is a lower level standing up on the ledge above you that keeps your pulls from running away (making it less troublesome).

what about endgame raiding ? how does this work there?

Oh ho! I'm in the most toppest of top endgame raiding guilds! Seal Team!

At any time a bone knight can be the same as a normal necromancer if they want to "just" use their spells.

But, often I do melee in raiding, because with my staff I outDPS everyone with undead targets (and once i get the rod of annihilation, I think I'll stay top / near the top in DPS into kunark).

The last raid I went to (fire giants) me and a paladin went ahead of everyone and duoed one of the giants to test our might (no fear kiting).

We were both trading back and forth on tanking, and then when we both got worn out, we stepped back and the pet took over tanking while we rested a minute and then got back into the fight.

Here are some parses from hate... ((for reference, Snagasson is a rogue))

What's your recommendation for an Iksar roll as far as point allocation? I'm thinking I'm going to do what I never thought I would and delete the Dark Elf for a lizard.

is all of this with classic experience only or did u try this also on kunark/velious on blue?

I have a feeling mobs hit harder there for their level compared to classic.

This is just in classic so far really. Is a new world of bone science!!

But looking ahead at items ... I think it will keep up. Even without limited time items (like rod of annihilation), can still get some nice weapons and armors to get the AC and things up.

Especially with velious raid items! Whewww, that build I posted earlier had like 2600 HP, and 1400 AC... it was bonkers.

So, looking forward to trying it.

I'd put 20 into dex, and 10 into int.
