Necromancer or Enchanter - dungeon charming?

[Tecmos Deception]

My mention of necros talking about doing hs refers to posts I've seen over years. I don't remember forum names.

As far as seeing only dead chanters in South/east? Just look at he SAC thread. Or this thread where I checked logs for my named kills maybe. I think it's about to the point of common knowledge among most people on p99 that chanters can solo spots like this, and that's because like a score of chanters or more have farmed in there over the last few years.

If necros are doing it, it's only a tiny fraction as often, and it was never discussed on the forums in any detail. And it's not for a lack of invitation. God knows I've posted in SAC thread and elsewhere asking for a necro to do south and stream it or do the SAC kills or whatever.

Yeah I feel I've answered this already in reply to Raev.

edit: perhaps there is something to be said for the type of person that rolls enchanter

I'd love, love, love to see a necro do some videos showing what the class is capable of in the right hands. I've been saying that for years, haha [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I actually played a necro during p99 classic and had a blast soloing back then in lguk, though a lot of mechanics were waaaaaay different back then. You could feign while still having a charmed pet, necro lull was better, you could LOS NPC spell casts, etc. But I guess you also didn't have clickies resetting gems and at least I, personally, didn't know about stuff like root nets or the WC cap or whatnot. My soloing experienced was limited to fear kiting to level up and then charming to solo frenzy, archmage, and ghoul lord. I tried to level a necro more recently but petered out when I hit the 50s before I tried doing any fancy solo stuff.

Somehow my necromancer is still accessible to me though. I tried to convince myself to play him instead of a new enchanter a couple months ago, but I couldn't resist the call of the enchanter.

Honestly, I'm with Tecmos on this one. I doubt that a necro could do this effectively without repeated deaths and a lot of CRs. It might be doable, but not in any efficient manner. -Brainfreeze level 60 enchanter.

I don't think anyone is doubting this.

I think some people are wondering if it is possible at all.

There's absolutely no question about it. Chanters handle South much better than Necro's and it's not worth it to camp South as a Necro, period. It's just a notch to have under your belt to have conquered a named spawn in South. Does anyone contest this?

I am a believer that Necro's do North better than Chanters. But that's a pretty low level camp in the grand scheme of the game.

Also, I remember spending time exploring East back in Kunark but I could never find a spot to even find an opening as a Necro. I'm curious about what that guy did to solo stuff in east.
