Hey guys i just found out about P99 yesterday and was wondering how do i go about making some plat to get me a few decent low lvl stuff for my necro. Im not looking for handouts (unless someone just happens to be nice and give me something for whatever reason) Im currently only lvl 4 name made a iksar necro, btw his name is Killertofu. Any advice would be greatly appreciated and help is always welcome. I currently dont have any Rl/gaming friends that play that i know of and it just seemed necro was the best choice since i dont really have to worry that much about getting gear. Again thank ya and im happy as hell to find out about P99. So long DiabloIII and wow, back to the master of MMOS EQ!

Tradeskill some basic starting gear then replace it with drops over time? Shouldn't be hard for a necro.

I wish I could help you but my only early level plat/xp strats are for good race :(

Most will say focus on xp, and that is right, but to be able to buy like 500-600 plats worth of gear to a newbie is glorious.

Hopefully someone knows some good tricks!

level in what ever untill you can solo wisps in North Karana, the quest to hand in the greaterstones will get you some decent exp and plat, dont really need much gear as an early necro. Maybe some hit point rings and bits and peices.

yea im not looking to be decked out just something to boost my hp would be perfect. Also i was reading that u have to do more than half to get full exp? Kinda hard atm since im poking for 4-6 and my pet is cracking for over 13 hehe just got to back him off here and there. It looks like i need to get level 5 than i can start grouping over there in the pit in field of bone. At least i never have to worry about bonechips XD

Fast food feels fuzzy
Cause it's made from stuff that's scuzzy
I used to feel like such a nerd
I refused to eat that strange bean curd
I wouldn't eat it -ow- but it ate you

Sometimes you'll have people wtb bone chips in fob and kurns, that's decent plat for a 1st char. Can get 5-10plat for a stack of 20. Once you get level 12 or so you can probably farm shralok packs

Yeah, you honestly don't need much gear as a necro. And real soon you'll be the solo king, so you'll be richer than you can. At least you picked a good class for a first char. 1) not gear dependent, and 2) you'll be able to cash camp pretty soon.

But if you want to look cool asap, i'd just find guard camps that you can do. The Bard camps drop decent plat, so if you follow the Bard Diet Guide, you'll level and get decent plat

I started a Iksar necro when I came to P99, and here a few things I did to make some cash.

First of all , before lvl 20 keep every bone chip you get and sell them for 10-20pp a stack. Lots of people will pay more to help out a real noob.

Next make a list of all the necro research words that are used, and save them. Goto your guild master trainer and train research to max , Then use them to make extra necromancer research spells and sell them for 100-200 a pop.

When you get to lvl 26ish I would highly recommend trying out the treant camp in south karana. There is 2 trees on 6 mins timers, single pullable and easy kills. They drop from what I can remember anywhere between 5-30 platinum in gold and dropabbles each kill. Good xp also.

When killing treats bind near by so when you get alot of gold on you, you can run over to the centaur camp and buy and resell gems or great staffs to convert the gold you looted into platinum to save a bank run(you will lose a few PP converting). Good luck

Everything here is good except for the research info-- research is a plat sink for the most part. You wont find people readily shelling out 200p per spell until 34, and its unlikely you'll have many of the "money" words so early.

FoB til ~12->Kurns til 20->WW giant Fort til 29->Treants til ~36>Oggok Guards until 49->Grobb guards til 51->Felwithe guards/Faerie Dragons until 55

Will take you from teens to 50s and give you a steady diet of cash/vendor drops. By the time you leave Treants you should have 6-8k, by the time you finish Felwithe guards/faerie dragons you'll have made 40-50k.

Yes research cost a little bit to skill up, but its very cheap to raise it enough at lvl 20-30, and as a necro you will find people that will pay for the spells at them prices.

Many people play alts and 100-200 pp is not that much to them. Necromancer reasearch spells are far more important than any other class (pets , pet haste, pet heal, lich, life taps over time).

So alot of necros will easily pay some plats for a rare spell instead of having to find the words(can be quite rare) and research it. I made alot of money from words and selling research spells and easily repaid for the training from the first few spells I sold.

This is not as easy early on, but if you keep leveling and keep all the words that necromancers can use, you can keep turning them word drops into decent money.
