<P>A. Lev 10 get pulsating feedback training option (one with snare)</P> <P>B. Lev 20 get the pet buff Aggrivating seal (wish I would have, you will use it til 50 and beyond, unless its "fixed") Your spider will be good untill 24, then with your kind of cash you should have no problem getting an adept III Adherent.</P> <P>C. Grim Spellbinder pretty much sucks in its current state except for the group buff.</P> <P>D. If I remember right at lev 20 I started hunting in nek right around the corner of the bridge, bears and skellies (you did pick the skeleton master strike I hope).  Or find a group, good luck though seems everyone is at lev 30 or higher anymore (or they just suck "sorry my taunts are app I, this is my alt and I haven't upgraded them yet :smileysurprised:</P> <P>C. As far as armor...  just do a armor check using the traders (search for yellow to orange for best long term results) but clothing does not make the necro.  Your trial and error will serve you much better than any wrist piece.</P> <P>D. As far as racial picks, I took all permanent INT upgrades and resists.</P> <P> </P> <P>Remember to have fun, you wont feel anything like a necro untill your 30's.</P><p>Message Edited by Mephlich on <span class=date_text>05-15-2005</span> <span class=time_text>01:29 PM</span>
