Things are a lot different than when I started my Erudite necro.  You now have Paineel which should help a lot.  Also, they fixed the zone link to get to the sewers in Qeynos.  You will probably find that there isn't much hunting on Odus after 5th level.  They did revise Kerra Ridge, but I think they made it higher level and it still has the same pathing problems it had before.
 
Unless they changed any of these factions, you will be:
 
Amiable in Paineel
 
Apprehensive in The Overthere, Neriak, Freeport
 
Dubious in Erudin
 
KoS in Qeynos, Halas, Surefall, High Hold, Rivervale, Kelethin, Felwithe, Cabilis, Firiona Vie
 
I screwed up my faction with Kaladim, Ak'Anon, Grobb and Oggok long before I found out what the starting levels were.  I think you are dubious in Kaladim.  Dubious with merchants in Ak'Anon, Grobb and Oggok, but KoS with the guards.  You will be KoS with the Ghouls in front of the Necro guild in Neriak.  You will be KoS with some inhabitants of the Hog Callers Inn in West Freeport and some people in the slum part of East Freeport.  You will be welcome under Freeport and Qeynos.
 
My suggestion if you go with an Erudite is to move to Freeport when you start to run out of things to kill on Odus.  You are mostly safe in Freeport and will have access to much better hunting grounds.  Freeport, Paineel, and Neriak are the only cities you will really feel comfortable in.
 
I don't know how much AGI is used so i don't know if that is a good idea or not.  I doubt you will need it at higher levels since you wont want to get into melee range.  Just remember, the higher your INT, the less INT items you need to make 200.  That means that you can have other items that will raise other attributes like Mana.

Hello all, I'm making a newbie necro on  regular sever (E'ci) and I need
some advice. I had a DE necro up to 5, but then i noticed everyone is a DE,
so I quit him. I'm thinking of making a erudite now, but then the iksar had
to come along. Anyone tried an iksar as a necro? How are they? Well, if I
dont go with an iksar and make a erudite I would probably take my 30 points
and bring 70 agi up to 80 agi and 117 int up to 137 int. Is this smart? I
plan to twink him, so he will probably have 190+ int from the start unless i
opt for mana jewelry. Also, if I made him a erudite where would i be liked
and disliked? Thanks very much for your time, and any other tips would be
appreciated.
