I know in general it's good to put points into new skills to unlock them, and also a few points can help in hard to train skills. What should I be using my training points on as an Iksar Necro? I've heard some people say it's smart to save them all and dump them into research or a specialization, should I not be spending them at low lvl?

for now don't waste your points and just continue leveling

until you want to start a tradeskill

but research sounds good

I wouldn't waste them in specialization. It's easy to spam raise it a bit then in your normal playstyle hit the right level in whatever magic flavour you choose. I'd save them for research.

Praise Amun and mighty Isis!

IMO I would save them all for research on a caster

Just for clarity, trade skills like fletching and pottery only allow you to skill up 20pts, the rest have to be earned. There is no question for casters, that they should pump them into Research, which is not limited by this cap.

It will cost you about 1-2k plat to pump research to it's trainable max?
Worth it in my opinion.


Make sure you keep Research at 0 until you're level 49+ That way you'll get the max freely given skill. Then pay to train the rest of the way it's able. You'll be paying more if you click train research (from ZERO) at a lower level.

These aren't the exact numbers but here is an example:
level 16 clicks train button for research, having 0 skill and gets 1 skill
level 49 clicks train button for research, having 0 skill and gets 70 skill

Research is level capped by the way. So you can't zoom up to a high level of research right away. You'll have time to re-evaluate your options.

Praise Amun!

morel like 5k plat to max research its a pita

i wanted to try just dioing mad combines of junk runes and spells over the varying levels once to save my points, but i never got around to seeing if its viable, its proably worth vender diving on green for research mats and leveling it that way, put your points into faerie
