Hello,

I'm a level 7 Necromancer/Monk. I want to level to approximately level 10 so I can go into Eye of the North and then do the boxing tournament. I wish to become a survivor so I can't die. Does anyone have any builds that may be good for this task? I have been to all campaigns, and started in Nightfall. I do not want people to suggest that I simply do quests and things, this is to time consuming in my opinion, unless you can suggest any quests which give large amounts of xp (for example 10,000 xp).

Thank you for your time,

Lambros

For a start.Legendary Survivor is supposed to be time consuming. Second:If you find "quests and things" too time consuming, your'e not gonna like the time taken to get to max survivor. Third:at level 7, you have nothing that constitutes a "build",more like a bar full of pretty pictures.

10k xp reward quests are generally aimed at high levels,I doubt you'll find anything with a reward like that so early in the game

Start over in Factions and do all the secondary profession quests. This alone will get you to level 11 with easy short quests and high xp rewards. Get a few guild mates to help you through the first missions so you get to kaineng center and off to gunnar's you go. Doesn't get much easier than that.

if you do almost every single quest out of champion's dawn/kamadan/zehlon reach you should be level 10 and high enough sunspear lvl to have the 30 extra attribute points.

I should know, I've done this on 4 characters from nf already. and I find it faster and easier than factions, plus nf characters look better imo.

I would say the best way to get Survivor is to find someone to power level you. Any other way, there's always a risk of mistake and dying. As for a build, try this:
[build prof=necromancer/monk bloodmagic=12+1+3 smitingprayers=9 protectionprayers=8 soulreaping=5+3][order of the vampire][strength of honor][blood ritual][protective spirit][aegis][optional][masochism][sunspear rebirth signet][/build]
Just stay way back behind the party and support without actually engaging in combat.

The biggest mistake you could make is using this terrible build,and even then,there is no way a level 7 could run that.

You really can't be serious inferno,if you are.....Oh dear

It's not a terrible build. I actually think it's a pretty decent build that can support the party with prots, damage, and energy buffs without actually having to engage in combat, but no, a level 7 would not be able to run it. It was just posted as an idea. And I'm pretty serious about that build if a Necro is looking to achieve Survivor since that build positions you behind the entire party, even the monks. Mobs would have to get through the entire team to get to you and by then, you should have ran for it. Or if worse comes to worse, log out.

Yes it is [mark of pain][barbs][rigor mortis] all outdo that by miles and without the sacrifice which could easily end survivor

Terrble damage that is either sacrifice health or maintained enchantment based,energy buff that is also sacrifice based. Hard pushed to call it a build,let alone "decent"

A bad one at that

Necros should be behind the party(somewhat) anyway,they are a support class,buff damage output and debuff damage taken.Your build does NOT do that very well or efficiently

Smart gameplay stops that,

Back on topic:If your still going with survivor a 500g taxi to docks for max armor would do the world of good and whatever your running now should be feasable to get you to level 10,at which point build doesn't matter when your boxing

Rothan Celt · Nov 19, 2008, 01:54 PM // 13:54

Just do a few light quests.... you picked one the worst proff/location for surv imo if boxing is the way you want to go it props would have been better to go Para/War.
