Sol Temple quests are the way to go. They should be able to be done by another toon for you to either pass the loot or MQ if you have someone higher. Basic Int gear is very easy to get, you can buy it or have a mid-level toon farm stuff off oowomp in TD

MQ takes the fun out of things!!

Dagger of marnek was probably one of the first things I camped on my necro when I first made him; it's a nice little range slot item. In general, you will want to value HP as much as you do Mana; this wiki page: http://wiki.project1999.com/Category...ncer_Equipment is useful for searching other items that you may be able to get at a relatively young level (or any level). Remember that raw mana and hp items are going to benefit you more at a lower level than will int and stam. Shadowbound gloves and boots are great for a young necro.

If you plan on playing your Necro in Velious which will be out soon, I would suggest you just go out and level it now. There is NO noob zones in Velious. And a Necro really needs NO gear at all to get the job done. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] And like said go for mana low levels, Int high levels. And for some reason Int cost more than Wis gear on here. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Just use the cheap, aka, free Robe you got from the trainer, and go for it. You need to be at least mid 20's to do any Velious low level zones. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Yeah, I agree with the general advice of just trying to level at a steady pace and not worry too much about gear if you can help it (until later).

When you do get ahead, and want a nice break from serious xp, it can be refreshing to take some time to upgrade some key item slots (e.g. camping a low-risk spawn that has a large upgrade for you); but your best gear by far is going to be attained when you reach raid level and fight with a raid guild or just by dropping some plat that you pick up along the way.
