Nektulos is basically the hunting ground for low level Dark Elves.  It contains creatures for level 1 characters all the way to level 12.  These include Decaying Skeletons, Bats, Spiderlings, Black Bears, Skeletons, Young Kodiaks, and Zombies.  The area also has quite a few Dark Elf Guards and Stone Guardians to protect young Dark Elves.  So, unless you call Neriak home, make sure you come in to Nektulos invisible and see how do the guards view you.

As with any place for starting characters, the best tactic is to first understand the zone you will be hunting.  Nektulos is a fairly large zone and it is advisable that you do some scouting before going into battle.  If you are here, chances are you are a Dark Elf so make sure you know where the Guards normally stay.  Lower level chatacters should hunt close to them or to the zone to Neriak as they will come to your aid if you run close to them.  Once you reach a higher level you can start going deeper into the forest and look for those tougher opponents such as Skeletons and Young Kodiaks.

At level 12 or so the best place to hunt is the monolith where the toughest undead creatures in this zone spawn.  You will find skeletons, zombies and lesser mummies there so make sure you have practiced your evocation skill to be able to successfully use Ward Undead on them.

Nektulos Forest is quite a nice place for starting characters as you will not have to go too far from home to find creatures that give you XP.  This is specially important for a Dark Elf necromancer as you are pretty much hated in most places outside your home town.  So enjoy and make sure you pay the nearby Lavastorm a visit once you reach level 12 or so.
