Q:
Few questions on Necro and Boxes...
A:
1. Check the necro forums for builds/ask there. They’re friendly folk over there and they’re happy to help out.
If you don’t like DS, it sounds like you might be better off with a different class. You have to deal with DS whether you like it or not as a Necro.
2. The loot from the reward chests does scale with level.
You can repeat each line of rewards except for the Balthazar line.
If you complete them, no. If you open the boxes, yes. However, you’re better off opening the boxes between certain level ranges (20-65); the materials you get from salvaging the loot outweighs the chance for exotic, when it comes to income.
The exception to this rule is the boxes which reward specific weapons/armors, particularly the ones in dungeon lines. For example, the boxes you get from level 10-20-30-40 from the Arah line which I’m fairly sure is currently open will always be level 80.
3. Sadly, no. You’ll want to play a medium class if you want to wear that armor set.

Always open your boxes on a level 80. Not only does the loot scale off your personal level, but your odds of getting extremely rare item (i.e precursors) are decreased on lower level loot so you’re only hurting yourself.
