Well I would suggest to trait as a condition based necromancer – it is a good way to lvl up, since with utility skill epidemic, you can actually just focus on the strongest mob in a group and the rest will die from condition spreading.

The main idea in my opinion is to use staff + Scepter*focus, since focus has the ability to stack vuln. fast. But if you are like me and do not like running slow, get warhorn for traveling (locust swarm gives a nice running speed boost).

Traits are mostly important in the second trait line from the top, since it is made for conditionmancers, put 30 points in there. Other points could go based on utility skills you like to use, I would suggest maybe wells, since mobs are not smart enough to not stand in them. When I was lvling up my necromancer, I used minions, but they suck, would not suggest it. The only minion that is ok is an elite flesh golem – he is the only minion that has self regeneration out of combat, also 45 sec mass knockback.

Get the health and dmg trait for minions and the rest of the trait points… you can spend them as you wish. Personally I’m going for condition dmg.
