| |
− | ** If you aren't using voice communication, use your wells at the same time as the other Necromancers in your group
| |
− | * Cast {{Skill|Well of Corruption}} before {{Skill|Well of Suffering}}, due to the longer cooldown
| |
− | * Only use your '''Well''' skills at the same time, do not use one early and desync their cooldowns
| |
− | * When using ground AoEs like {{Skill|Well of Corruption}} or {{Skill|Well of Suffering}}, try to place them so that one edge is on the enemy group and the other edge is in the direction they are moving to

| |

| |
− | * Use {{Skill|Unholy Feast}} and {{Skill|Devouring Darkness}} immediately after {{Tooltip|Weapon Swap}} and use them again immediately before swapping back
| |
− | ** Delaying your {{Tooltip|Weapon Swap}} slightly for the cooldown is fine

− | * Barrier lasts 5 seconds after application before decaying
| |
− | * Use {{Skill|Sand Flare}} and {{Skill|Sand Cascade}} before pushes and during extended engages
