I have a lot of basis. But if you want to think your king of the little hill in your mind be my guest.

The mechanics of the game didn't change just the time period. Classic EQ ring a bell??? That said GL with whatever you do because assumptions won't get you very far, nor will your having to be right attitude when clearly your wrong and lack the experience to know better.

Experience on the actual server in question with both classes in question from within a couple months ago > recollected memories from live many years ago with experience with only one of the classes in question

dont worry abot nerds telling to you to be quiet. Just ignore them. I also think twinking lvl 1 toon with 100k is BS from live servers.

Bunch of twinks running around, flying through low lvls soloing red mobs. Great!

Hell, this guy is so bored he has to ask how to spend his 100k?! I give you advice. Spend it on helping real noobs. Distribute some of that wealth you dont need and actually HELP someone. It will help the server more than having uber twinks runing around.

Now, tell me to be quiet and call me troll, because I have a different opinion.

/flameshield on


Personally, IMO, its not how someone is geared that makes them undesirable,
its how they play esp with regard to others........

Also, the best way to help a noob out isnt to inturn twink them, but to
give them advice, assist in difficult situations, CR port, run by buffs etc.

Now factor what I stated above into the soloing scenario. Which is what this poster wants to do. The Necro will be able to Kite higher lvl mobs (agro early on then fear later). Oh and root rot later too when the occasion arises. Killing more higher xp mobs at a much more steady rate then the Monk thus gaining xp substantially faster.


While I appreciate what people are saying here, i must admit this
is somewhat off point. This new toon's goal is def not to xp faster.
It will quest alot, challenge high difficulty encounters, and overall
enjoy the ride mostly......the grind is behind me....

There is absolutely no rational reason to care, at all, about whether people twink or not.

And I don't know what live you played, but people giving a damn about twinks were easily the minority. Makes your bit about "typical twinkers just hear what they want to hear" a bit ironic.
He says most people laughed at twinks on Live, but what he really meant was "I laughed at twinks on Live, and just assumed everyone else reacted the same way."

I distinctly recall being happy when a twink joined the group, and being awed in the early years if the person was truly epically twinked. Part of the reward for leveling up to max, and then farming your balls off, is the ability to go back to content that raped your naked ass and rape it in turn. But I guess some people have inferiority complexes and can't stand to see anyone enjoy themselves.

Good try but no dice there. Come back when you actually learn more about the class. Then we'll talk.

Oh let me leave you with lil links for a cpl items that will increase a "Twinked" necro's damage on their spells.

Holy shit, dude, you're making yourself look retarded. More so than all the posts before this one.

To summarize that long back and forth about necro vs melee:

An ungeared necro will solo better from 1-60 than an uber twinked melee. However, an uber twinked necro will not solo better (relative to the ungeared necro) than an ungeared melee would relative to an uber twinked melee.

I doubt anyone will disagree with that.

Basically, if you want to roll a twink because you enjoy benefiting from uber gear on a low level, roll a melee.
