Default Newbie necro quests

Hey all, was curious if theyre is any newbie (1-15ish) necro quests that I could do to get some gear or nice bit of coin. Just started up here love it so far, any help as well as general necro tips would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Because your location in the world has no bearing on what quests would be available to you.

Based on what quests are presented to me would probably impact what race I choose.

Are the various necromancer trainers always friendly to necros regardless of race?

alot of the newbie armour quests weren't introduced until later on in the piece (post PoP days). they were designed to make the game a litte easier on newbies just joining the game in an effort for SoE to get more subs.

well that's how i remember it anyways

Best you probably will be able to muster is gnoll fangs in Qeynos, but that means you'll have to be a human necro.. which is umm... prob not worth it in the long run.. most newbie quests involve bone chips, something you won't want to be giving away anyways.

Pretty sure they were in during Luclin, since I remember them and quit during Luclin. Maybe I'm misremembering...

Small correction...

Newbie class-specific armor quests were introduced with Luclin, if memory serves.

Roll erudite necro you arent kos in all the important zones ( qeynos, freeport, nek,kaladim ). 1st) At lvl 2 do the bone quest in paineel and u get a nice 1hb with +hp and a nice dot proc, weapon is also magic. 2nd) at lvl 7 you can do cubert quest for +3 int earrings. 3rd) Kill gnolls from as low as possible til u dont get good exp no more, u will probably level faster off fangs then killin/ groupin. 4) Once gnolls get slow zone over to karana and do bandits, each sash is good exp and a fs weapon that is good cash. 5th) After level 13ish move to ec area

thanks infectious for not derailing, was considering a erudite but wasn't quite sure.

Would a human KoS over there? kinda prefer the look of humans/des to erudites.

You really don't need to worry about quests for gear for these levels. Your main goal should be to run outside your starting city and kill as many skeletons as possible to get cloth armor, bone chips, some plat and level 4.

Another thing you'll need to keep in mind, when rolling from scratch on the server, is you want to pick a city you can sell to easily right away as you won't have any bags and your inventory slots fill up ASAP.

As soon as you have the gold to buy it, get your level 1 pet spell and then start going to town on mobs.

As you level you should be able to make decent plat to start buying gear along the way. Even at level 48 though, I still have 2 pieces of gear that I'm wearing from when I was level 4. My cloth shoulders and shoes. I'm hoping to replace the shoes with Jboots soon and I still have enough $ to upgrade my shoulders from killing the cyclops in OoT, just haven't found anyone selling the piece I need in the EC Tunnel.

So don't worry about gear, you don't need it right away and it will come as you level.

For your info, I did this to level.

1-8 Nektulos Forest
8-12 East Commons killing Scarabs, Lioness, Bears, Spiders and Lions.
12-16 - West Karana killing the bard/guard by Qeyons Hills zone in.
16-20 - Grouped in Unrest doing yard trash.
20-24 - Solo'd and grouped in Unrest doing 1st floor.
24-29 - Solo'd Unrest doing 2nd floor.
29-33 - Solo'd Unrest doing basement
33-40 - Solo'd Druids in West Commons
40-46 - Solo'd Spectres in The Feerrott.
46-48 - Solo'd Seafury Cyclops in the Ocean of Tears.
