70 necromancer grind

Player Questions Started Last reply 8 posts
Mmm.. Where is the best place to EXP as 70 necromancer[with an SE]? The back of VoS? FoD? (which mobs?), CDL in HotSprings?

Any suggestions?
mobs out side godad are good, you can CDL them....but be forewarned they do Magic type atks, and spowned fast.

Blazing swamp, but I hear XP is better else where...good place for a Necro tho, you can CDL there.

FoD on the vampires. up till 75.

After you get to 75 best place to be is WoA's. Angels are great they are weak to dark type, but are 5X hp...so be careful. best after you get to 76 and your vortex to kill them.

next best would probably be MoS with a small nuker party of mostly, SH, Necros, SE's, and a BD maybe a 78 SwS. (ES to if there are any on your server)

At 69 I newest to do WoA with a PP when they could still zerk mobs, I had her root and zerk the mobs, and I'd CDL'd at about 300 hp...they did some times do a nuke, but most of the time it was great XP on antalopes. would of been nice had I had a SE back then oh well.
the grind for a 70+ necro is actually pretty bad.... not as bad as 90% of melee but definately worse than any other nuker

i went to 72 or maybe 73 at high vos, cant remember the name of the mobs but they are basically the only things in there that arent blue

after those guys went blue i went to fod, there is really only one spot that doesnt have dark resist mobs and its near the bridge to swamp of screams
stay there even when the mobs are blue and when it hits night time cross the road and hang out near the rock killing spiders and stuff

after you are nearly insane from doing that you can move to shrine of the loyal and cdl
make sure you get the spot thats closer to imperial tomb and you can hang out there till 76 when you get vortex. when you first get there use death spike cause those mobs self buff bless the body and you wont be able to 2 hit them if they have been hanging around too long

blazing swamp will actually be better XP then there
xp per mob on average is lower but the mob spawns are much denser, just gotta watch out for their skills which can fairly easily kill you
Well, I'm back again. 'quit for a while, but I'm lv 74 now, and looking for a a new place to grind to 76..

I've been in FoD by the bridge for a while now, and it's maddening.. are there any better places since interlude and such?
i just reread my post and it seems to have all the info you need



FoD on the vampires. up till 75.





Erm, are you mad?
Yes, seriously mad. I wouldn't even bother with Forest of the Dead. Having to move when nighttime comes isn't only a PITA, it's sometime impractival becasue other areas can become camped at any time. So many classes level there, it sometimes actually gets crowded (since everyone has the best gear available and a buffer or two and kills extremely fast).

Outside of Goddard is impractical. I think even a 74 SPS would be able to 1 shot those with Hydroblast, nevermind a CDL'ing Necro. I think I can 1 shot some at level 70 with Death Spike. They are 1/2 HP mobs, and the XP sucks. 4xxx a kill, like 6'ish mobs for 0.01%? Mind as well stay in VoS and eat the XP penalty from the back mobs, they'd give you more for 1 shot CDL kills...

Wall of Argos on Antelopes is good. 2 Shot CDL on those. Hot Springs is good also, just be wary of the stun and the agro ranges.

Interlude hasn't really added much, Lol. Kinda crappy. NCSoft likes to add stuff but seems lost on the concept of revision. Nerfs are the only types of revision they do it seems.

There need to be viable 72-78 field leveling spots, and dark resist mobs other than the 4/5x HP catacombs/ToI/MoS mobs or the others we, frankly, don't care about.
some of the goddard mobs are 6+k per kill

trust me stick to what i said you wont regret it
