I like how you accuse me of not getting it, then go on some rant that misses the point entirely, lol
The difference in DPS between a uber twinked necro and a regular geared necro is ZERO. There is NO DPS difference. The time difference in leveling a massively twinked necro and a regular geared necro is minuscule. The only thing that would make a significant difference is if you have a manastone+fungi staff or a Rod of Annihilation + Tola robe. Having JUST a manastone would help, but wont make a huge ground breaking difference in leveling time.
Compare that to a monk, where a monk with a fungi robe and a Wu's Quivering Staff (a cheap low end weapon, imagine what the monk could do with a RFS and 36% haste) will easily level twice as fast as a monk with fighting batons and random crappy armor. That's the point of the original statement about a twinked caster not being as exciting. Your damage isn't boosted except with a couple very rare exceptions as a caster, whereas the difference it makes in melee is insane. Whether a necro kills more than the monk is completely irrelevant to the original statement.
I do like how you toss in that bit about me not knowing much about necros. You've made several statement that make it clear you speak not from experience, but from assumptions and hypothetical ideas, whereas I am speaking from experience (not that you need experience to know that more HP and MANA wont make your spells do more damage.)

You clearly don't what I am saying or Necro's at all for that matter. I'm speaking from 7+ years experience in live from the start of eq to the top of Omens (raiding all end game content and doing all xp zones). How long have you played a necro?
I guess you need some glasses or something in order to read what I wrote so you might be able to comprehend what i'm saying (or someone to explain it to you really slow). Because there is one key word and one key phrase your totally missing "OVERALL" (need a dictionary???) in regards to the phrase that the overall dps of the Necro will be much higher as they will be able to pull more often, cast more often and kill faster with the gear mentioned. This is the key where the "OVERALL" dps will be much higher!
You clearly do not understand the class. Your basing your assumptions off of your limited experience.
