How do you quote on these forums?
In any case, I’m replying to OP’s post when he asked me what I thought was wrong. Just to clarify some stuff, I’m not bashing at you or trying to tell you I’m better than you, I’m trying to help you improve your build which I strongly feel is one of the worst necro builds you can run at the moment (not your fault, necro just struggles in many parts of the class).
First of all, I wouldn’t use Axe and Focus. Whilst 2 on axe is a cool move and does decent damage, 1 and 3 are way sub-par compared to what other main hand weapons can provide. Focus is alright but right now I really believe the strongest offhand is dagger, or warhorn if you play a more versatile build. BiP isn’t a good move. It says it does a lot of damage but thats only because it lasts for so long – most teams will have some sort of condition removal or a way to deal with it after 5 or 10 seconds. I haven’t really used Corrosive Poison so I won’t comment on it, but later I’ll tell you the skills I would use instead (and no room for that). Signet of spite is only really good if you have FoC or epidemic, and even then I wouldn’t use it. It’s for such a short duration that has little effect that there are better alternatives. Your ultimate, Lich Form is good as a form of burst, but that isn’t what necro’s are for. So, I’ll put below what I think you should try using instead.
Right now, there is only I think 2 (3, max) useful and effective ways of playing necro at it’s potential. The strongest one I would say is the toughness/survival build. With the right gameplay and skills, you can easily hold a node solo or delay a teamfight long enough for support to come or in many cases, even kill 2 or 3 enemies. This build also uses skills to manipulate conditions/boons, rather than create 30 stacks of them. To try and achieve this, I use this build:

Scepter for bleeding + FoC, which will be a large portion of your damage (also thanks to traits). 4 on dagger allows you to transfer conditions on you to your enemy. Really useful, and use it for that reason, not for damage. Staff is self-explanatory. Probably the strongest necro weapon for now. Consume condition is the best necro heal, especially for this build as it again helps with condition management. Spectral armour is used to help build your life force quickly and to help against a thief who’s trying to burst you or anything else, as it reduces damage by 33%. This, sometimes I swap with epidemic depending on the enemy team I face and the team I’m playing with. It’s situational. Plague signet is probably my favourite skill, and priceless to me. It’s a very big player in your attempts to manipulate conditions not just for you, but for your team. Corrupt boon has been mentioned before as the anti-guardian, it’s a really, really strong spell. Plague form is really there for survival. It lets you sit at the keep node vs 2 or 3 and just spam blind to maximise the time you delay them from capping until your team gets there (whilst even getting them low thanks to the poison).
The aim of this build is to take advantage of plague form every time its off cooldown and you jump into a fight, and death shroud everytime you have lifeforce at 100%. This way, the enemy effectively has to kill you more than once due to your shroud. Toughness on runes also let you take a shedload of damage and still feel fresh.
I’m writing this as I have to rush out, so it may seem a little rough or badly-worded – I apologise for that – but I hope the main point has gotten across.
Another way I’ve seen necro played is support/wells, which is a cool build too. I’ve never played it myself, but I haven’t complained when having one on my team ^^. Minion Master Necro I still think iskitten due to the complete lack of control you have over your minions and their stupid AI. If you’re lucky, they’ll take a few hits for you. Hope this helps as to why you might be seen as a under-par necro.
