I don't know why but when I camp about 75% of the time I crash to my desktop instead of going cleanly to the character select screen. I then have to re-log in and it takes a few minutes because I get the message that I still have an active character on the server and I need to wait for it to sync.

Not me though. As a cleric I love having a necro to twitch me if I get low on mana. I don't even have to ask. I will see the necro say "how's your mana cleric?" and if I reply anything under 80m I usually see "Inc mana for cleric".

Not to mention most necros throw me a heal over time after I have taken a few hits from sitting aggro. I hate using mana on myself so I can't tell you how much I appreciate the heal from a necro.

Very common 2 boxing problem actually.

I only have one account so I don't 2 box. But the camping/crashing issue has been happening since the day I started playing P99. I'm sure there is some simple fix but I don't know what it is. So I just live with it.

I believe running eqgame.exe in XP compatability mode fixed that for me.

Not sure what UI you're running, but Duxa's all in one installer fixed a lot of crasing for me also.

As for getting the key, Loramin has it right. Prepark on the guy you want to give the key to, track hunter / forager on your Druid, hit them with a snare and bring them to your prepark spot, then root rot that mamma jamma and log over.

I have a Seb key on every char of mine over 50 and I think I have got them from just asking in /OOC from Bards doing the name cycles. Not on a single char have I had to actually camp the mobs or track them. If you make your way to TT you will leave with a key if you put your mind to it

Worst case scenario the corpse rots and you have to kill the mob again, not the end of the world. I've farmed like 20 seb keys with a 53 druid and switching over to loot. It's easy peasy.

As for the necro part, the problem is that most necros don't play the class to its full potential. Just be the puller for your group and everyone will love you. CC incs with pet / root / mezz and bring the mobs single to your grp. Lifetap back up so you don't waste any cleric mana. You can even have like 5 to 10 mobs rooted outside of camp and just deal with the incs when root break.

Or you can be a sucky necro that give all of us a bad name and summon a sucky pet and throw the horror skeleton DD at mobs while sitting in a corner smoking a blunt.

They should remove that fucking spell from the game. If it made it so you could undead nuke then it would be cool...but its just an illusion spell that literally everyone who has ever played EQ hates.
