Necromancers have some of the most powerful spells, with the longest recharge and highest energy cost.

Always remember, when choosing secondary skills, that native skills often have better synergy with the profession's purpose, interact better with the profession's other skills, and benefit from runes.

[edit] Necromancer/Warrior

• This profession combination provides very little benefit for Necromancer primaries.

[edit] Necromancer/Ranger

• Certain Nature Rituals can be useful for a minion master, particularly Winnowing.
• Certain Nature Rituals are seen quite commonly on 1-hp BiP necromancers.

[edit] Necromancer/Monk

• The 55hp solo Necromancer is a very effective farming tactic.
• Minion Masters sometimes use Heal Area as a non-necromancer alternative minion maintenance skill, although this split can draw points from other necromancer attributes where it would be more useful.
• Dwayna's Sorrow can be used by a minion master to give party supportive healing.
• A reusable resurrection skill can be useful in PvE.

[edit] Necromancer/Mesmer

• Echo and Arcane Echo can be used to increase the damage potential of some of the longer recharging necromancer skills.
• Recurring Insecurity combines extremely well with Soul Barbs, along with other mesmer hexes.

[edit] Necromancer/Elementalist

• Glyph of Lesser Energy can be used for energy management.

[edit] Necromancer/Assassin

• Enduring Toxin and other Deadly Arts hexes combine well with Soul Barbs.
• Signet of Toxic Shock and other deadly arts skill combines well with Toxic Chill.

[edit] Necromancer/Ritualist

• A Necromancer can function as a healer using Restoration Magic, managing energy with the Soul Reaping bonus.
• A reusable resurrection skill is useful.
• The Ritualist's spirit conjuring abilities can complement a Necromancer's Death Magic skill usefully for minion masters, providing blanket effects over all of their undead.

[edit] Necromancer/Paragon

• A minion master can use "Fall Back!" to heal his army on the move and "Go for the Eyes!" to increase minion damage, however these are among the few shouts which affect minions.

[edit] Necromancer/Dervish

• Mystic Regeneration can combine with Necromancer enchantments such as Dark Bond and Aura of the Lich.
