20%?

I don't really notice it. In the right camps you're popping yellow con giants half the time. They shit plat and exp.

As a longtime Necro from '99 to 2005, I'll back up everything that Ostros has told you. They know what they're talking about. I really can't even add much more, except that the reason I rolled an Iksar Necro was for total and utter self-reliance (forage+necro abilities). This is also why I grandmastered spell research, but in the end I was able to turn that into a nice hobby.

I wouldn't worry so much about the race as you're going to be hated all over the place. Play what you want to play, and have fun. Necros are my favorite class from any MMORPG to date. Kiting is fun and rewarding, and virtually unheard of outside of EQ (Most call it exploiting!)
