I added something I called the Necromancer Hunting Guide on the wiki, but I guess it's more of a Solo Guide with playstyle and area suggestions by level. Please, all you people who actually know how to play your Necromancers, feel free to head over there and add to/change it:

Hmmm... gah... don't think I do, but I'll search the forums. I created that when I was working elsewhere, and I'm not certain it came along with me, but I'll look around and see what I find. I would rather find the thread, because other people REALLY improved it and made it more accurate and informative.

Let me see what I can find.

Found it. Here's the thread, I would recommend Taedirk's post for accuracy and info:

So necro's cant fear kite?* Was that overpowered or something. Or because it could be used to grief other players maybe.

Well, they may be able to now, I don't honestly know. The reason they couldn't when I first started playing one is that Fear pathing was not implemented.... So... no fear. But, I saw patch messages a long while ago about fear pathing being added, just not sure if that is in place or not, and if it is, whether that has made fear kiting a viable method again.

I tried fearing an animal in Oasis last night (Druid here, not a Necro), and got a message that "Fear had not been implemented here yet" or something like that.

Get some SoW potions and stick to pet kiting in open areas... plenty of good hunting around. :)

There are a few places where fear works but to be honest you don't really need it.
Darkness and later on root is everything you need to be succesful when you can't find a group, the way to get up there is on the Wiki.
Just play around with some other Necro abilities and you won't miss fear that much at all.
