In pre searing you can go to several collectors to get a "necro" set. So far I have found 2 for leggings, 1 for boots, 2 for gloves, but have not found the one for the body armor (shirt, w/e). Does anyone know the location of this missing collector?
Thanks.

Try letting us know the locations in which you found these collectors? It'd be easier to use deductive reasoning and point out one you've missed when you list the places you've ran across these collectors.

Check out this part of the Pre-Searing guide.

In short:
NECROMANCER
5 Skeletal Limbs to Collector Gwynn (Catacombs entrance Ashford Abbey) for Necromancer Gloves
5 Colossal Jawbones to Collector Findley (Regent Valley directly South of Fort Ranik) for Necromancer Tunic
5 Spider Legs to Collector Varis (Fort Ranik or Regent Valley) for Necromancer Leggings
5 Warden's Trophies to Collector Hatcher (Fort Ranik or Regent Valley) for Necromancer Boots

Hope this helps.

Instead of getting the soon-to-be useless armor, I suggest farming Grawls to for Grawl Longbow Gear. Salvage that to get hides. Hides are the main item needed to craft much, much better Necromancer armor when you get past pre-searing. Though, you need about 8 hides for one tunic, so farm well . I suggest farming as soon as they are not hard, but killed without much strain on your character. This way you can get the drops and XP for the kills. Also, hides are in short supply in Old Ascalon (Atleast, they were in beta), so it would take awhile to collect hides in Old Ascalon.

Good luck.

P.S. - I dont know where the tunic armor is

Here is a group of maps I found useful, with the collectors, trainers and merchants listed.

http://www.gwonline.net/page.php?p=127

Keep in mind however that collector Findley for the Necro tunic is not on the map. At least not where he is supposed to be, after 2 eull days searching I gave up and got the good armor post sear as i was quested out in pre-sear

All I was able to get pre-searing was the gloves, boots, and leggings. There was the collector for the tunic in the Beta, but he is gone in the release. SO i know of no way to get the tunic. besides, like they said above, just go farm and get a bunch of gold and stuff then go to post-searing and buy the better armor.

I have found out that Collector Hatcher no matter where he is located( several actually) appears to nolonger take anything. He says to every Necromancer I have spoken to including myself ( I know I talk to myself..thats a whole nother forum ;-) ) That he is no longer collecting unnatural seeds and to look for some one to buy them at the outpost.

Kaleen ( sp) to the right of Necromancer Trainer Muna in the Catacombs now gives the Necromancer Boots, for 5-Gargoyle Skulls.

As for Collector Findley I have a strange feeling he may no longer be about at least in Regent Field, I searched for about 2 hours while out just hunting there. But perhaps I missed him as I found Varis in a strange location the first time.

But then I havent actually found a Wardens Trophy yet either lol.


Locations of Varis. 1.) at the top of a hill near the bridge in Regent Valley that you across to head to Fort Ranik ( Several Bloodsworn are across the bridge)

Locations of Hatcher 1.) I found in in Fort Ranik and also out past Varis in Regent Valley with a group of soldiers playing a drinking game( I will get the exact locations when I head back into the game later)

There seems to be a problem with the magic class tunics, both the Necromancer and Elementalist tunics are nowhere to be found(trust me, i've been to every single collector).
I don't know if they forgot to add a collector(didn't find a Findley), or if they were/should be on Hatcher.

I think that they are missing for the moment because I've been trying to find the Elemintalists but also not having any luck.

Edit:
Found the warrior and the ranger gear just fine though

P.S. - I dont know where the tunic armor is
I'm still in pre and have 9 of these hides already. How many hides needed for a complete necro set so I know when to stop farming?

I got the Necro Armor that is 51 Armor and +5 Energy from the following:

5 Ebon Spider Legs - Gloves
And 5 Ancient Eyes and 5 Thorny Carapaces gave me the Tunic and the Boots (can't remember which was for which)

I am not sure what the legs collector wants though?

I don't think that is the set Roken was talking about. I'm looking for things I can farm in pre to be able to just hand in in post asap.

I couldn't find the Tunic for my Necromancer in the beginning. When I asked about it, people said you can't get it and to move on.

You can skip it and just get the better armor in Post-Searing.

That much has been established already. What is needed is details on how to get the post searing armor. How many pelts per piece and who to see for each piece.

for my first 2 characters i made sure i had all of the pre searing armor pieces, but i soon realized they are still not good and its much better to just wait till u get to post searing ascelon and get armor there

for a necro u need bone and hides, and it also costs 150 gold per piece, but its much, much better armor

Dont forget to stock some wood planks for your necro. You will need these for the scar patterns. They trade in for parchment which is needed. Or you could be like me a just buy them.

The pre armor is pretty much useless, unless you enjoy collecting. You'll be able to buy better armor right away.

I have the details for the bonelace armor(30 armor or something, i forgot):

Bonelace Tunic = 12 Tanned hide squares, 12 Bones(salvage skulls, limbs etc for those), 150gold

Bonelace Boots = 4 Tanned hide squares, 4 Bones, 150gold

Bonelace Gloves = 4 Tanned hide squares, 4 Bones, 150gold

Bonelace Leggings = 8 Tanned hide squares, 8 Bones, 150gold

You can also get new face scars for 150gold each and 4 parchments(can get parchment from the materials guy outside the sanitarium(Ashford Abbey), although I forgot what materials you need to give to him for the parchment(anyone?).

Hope that helps.

Also with the hides I saw mentioned here that you need it from the grawls on those longspear gears. Yes they salvage in to hides but so do the worn belts. I discovered that last night. As a result I have a ton of hides, ton of bones from killing all the skellies on the outter edge and inner circle near that necro trainer in catacombs. Also a ton of planks, dusts, iron, a few cloths. Can't remember if anything else. Oh some plant fibers. Wonder what all that other junk is used for. All that at 421 gold. Only quest I have left is Charr at the gate and I'm ready to go to post searing.

My guess on the parchment is "Wood", but it might be those small fur squares. (Though the wood makes more sense )

Can't remember off the top of my head, but I think it's wood... I made a bunch there when I was about level 8.
