I've got a spare character I've never really developed into anything. I use him to play with skills. I realized that I had never GMed Cooking so he is almost done with it!

Anyway...I've decided to move him up to a playable character. So far he is mostly just a Mage. I already have a Mage/Fisher/Pally, a Mage/Alchy/Scribe, a Mage/Tamer, and a Mage/T-Hunter. (I love having 12 characters to play with...but I miss having 24)

I was trying to decide what to do with him. I play solo mostly and I PvM only, I haven't gone back to Fel since moving to Trammel

So far he has:

100 Anatomy
110 Eval Int
100 Focus
110 Magery
110 Meditation
100 Cooking (almost!)
80 Tactics (left over from his Parry days)
Plus I have 70 points of Necro and Fencing on Soulstones.

He gets 720 points. I was toying with the idea of a Mage/Peacer but just started a Swords/Pally/Peacer on my other account. Is Necro any good for PvM?? I've never really worked with it. I also have not used any new skills since AOS. (Ninja, Bushido, Spellweaving, anything else new??) I also have a million Soulstone Fragments from the holiday gifts, so I can dump anything off of him I need too.

I'm just trying to mix stuff up and stay interested. I LOVE skill gain!!1!one! :shocked:

Any advice would be appreciated (but may or may not be followed :grin

I use wither alot for clearing out spawn, along with poison strike and a few others spells. Also you can summon familars to help heal you, generate mana, and a few other things. But you will need spirit speak to get more spell damage for some of the necro spells.

Necro damage spells are powered by Spirit Speak, so if you're serious about raising Necro, you'll need to add Spirit Speak.

Necro can be fun. Evil Omen not only increases damage of necro spells, but also increases damage of Magery spells. For example, casting Evil Omen and then Poison will boost level of poison by one. Corpse Skin cast on an enemy combined with Flamestrike does tremendous damage. Once you can cast Revenants with the Vengeful Spirit spell you can just sit invis and let them deal with the spawn, good for single powerful non-casting opponents.

I personally have my Spirit Speak higher than my necro so that my necro has the title "Grandmaster Medium."
