If you plan on raiding I would start working towards 90/100 SV Magic/Fire/Cold. You can either buy resist jewelry or start hunting for SV items.

My critique is that you should level first and worry about gear later (especially as a caster) ... IF you want to get powerful as quickly as possible.

But ultimately it's a game and you should do what's fun for you.

Thats a great set of gear for someone new to P99.

Necros can level to 60 naked.

Can go slot by slot and sort by int / mana / hp and figure out what else you could get.

yeah I was like, damn these kids these days are way better than I was back when I started playing this game.

Nice set of gear for a 37 year old necro OP!

Hello, good to see another necromancer blazing the trail. I can offer you some suggestions, but first I need to know do you have a price range you are working with? Are you farming plat + leveling? Some items range in price, before I offer suggestions, I would like to know how much plat you have to roughly work with.

Here are my personal suggestions for buyable upgrades for fair prices. I will include some higher end items too. Your gear is good enough to get 60 though, I agree with the above statements.

loam arms -- Gatorscale sleeves - runs 250pp - 300pp (if you need some extra HP)
lizard scale belt -- Crystalline silk belt - Runs about 2k
golden efreeti boots -- Coldain skin boots - Runs about 2k
dire wolf hide cape -- Iksar hide cape -- Runs about 3-4k
loam leggings -- Astral Leggings of the titans runs just under 1k
harvester -- Tome of the eternal, Roklys channeling crystal, or Ornate Rune shield -- 600pp - 1.2k
dagger of marnek -- Iksar hide manual or Frozen orb -- both around 500-650pp
If you have the money boneshear or Eye of Narandi are nice range slots for 8-10k.

The rest of the items I left out I am having a hard time thinking of fairly available tradable upgrades. Maybe Shaii'din Revenant bauble for ears, but that is really it.

Good luck to you!

Err Book of Obulus, not Tome of the eternal.
