You don't have to give them a weapon but if you want to just pick it up on your mouse pointer and click on the pet. Clicking on their skull is safest. Skeletons are notoriously hard to target.


I thought that the first pet spell was one that Necros got on creation ready-memmed?

I'm pretty sure you have to buy your first pet spell...Use the find command to find NPCs described as Necromancer Spells, they should all be near one another, right click the spells to get the information and make sure its the lvl1 pet spell, then buy it and scribe it in your book...Scroll down to classes, Necromancer, Necro spells, on Allahkazam site - All the spells and their lvl requirement and where to get them...

This is one of my "complaints" of the game for newcomers - I mean who actually uses (or ever used) there instcrucion manual for EQ? It's pretty worthless and fails to explain some of the fundamentals of the game...I had a hard time when I first started the game and I had played the PS2 version, so I can imagine how frustrating it would be to take the game with no previous EQ experience at all...

Allahkazam, Casters Realm, and Eqatlas are all great sites (you can find links to all of them from the www.everquestlive.com under the links)...They have a wealth of information though alot of the information geared for newcomers is way out of date...Also, don't forget to ask fellow players in the game for help...

Use /ooc to ask your questions, you'll find that there are quite a few people who are willing to help you out...Try to avoid the caps lock and don't use ghetto grammar, that'll immediately tune people out...

You know, it does seem like that bigass gold box had some books in it with the game CDs...I tossed em straightaway. Of course, I tried reading them a couple of years ago, when I first made an overture towards playing EQ and I KNEW how useless they were. I felt confident that I could make it this time for two reasons:

1. I've got a cousin who lives EQ, and by god, I don't care if it wakes him up when I call him. That's what he gets for raiding til like 7 in the morning.

2. I made up my mind to play the game and get **** accomplished, no matter what. I read websites, I ask people in game, and if all else fails, I just keep banging away at it until I get the result I want (or tell myself I wanted). Shadowbane sucked (anybody wanna buy a couple of accounts?), Horizons blew chunks (anybody wanna buy an account), I already knew Mythic from their pre-DAOC days so I never went there, SWG isn't my cup of tea, I doubt WOW is going to be either, and nothing else I've tried lately really appeals, so SOE is getting my dollars. This is my new hobby, and I'm going to do it well. So there!

I was going to make a point somewhere, but I just lost it. I think the mind wanders after 10 hours or so of 'Allure Death'.....

Necros can buy their first pet spell at level 4, but some (Erudites at least) can quest for a level 1 pet. I know I got mine...

I believe any Necro can buy their first pet. I know I did with my Dark Elf. The spell is:

https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=9900

It has a few vendors listed. Kinda wierd that Erudin is not on the list. I guess that is why a quest exists for Erudites. I would not be surprised if the spell can be bought in pok too.

Cavorting Bones (pet) is a level 1 spell, and costs about 1.5 gp. Why would a necro wait until level 4 to get it?
