Single zone 1-60 challenge

[druidbob]

Been doing ssf runs lately and have enjoyed the challenge, but I crave something different. So I am going to try a challenge so tedious and absurd that I doubt few have attempted, leveling a toon from 1-60 in a single zone.

The zone: Rathe Mountains, one of my favorite outdoor zones from classic, has what I believe to be the best spread of mob levels of any zone in the game.

The class: necromancer , I expect fear kiting to be about 90% or my xp with perhaps some undead charming at appropriate levels, not gear dependant which is a big plus, troll merchants will allow me to unload vendor trash.

Twinking?: only twinking will be level 1 spells and some bonechips, otherwise naked. Gear can be bought in EC, but only with funds earned while XPing.

The rules: can only leave zone to hit the tunnel or purchase spells, all xp must be done in zone.

Wish me luck, this will probably take forever with several breaks for my sanity. Will keep you posted if anyone is interested.
