For my purposes, getting a CoS along the way wasn't a consideration (although I probably should have as I had plenty of time before the nerf hit as an investment).

If my previous post downplayed the importance of the item, that wasn't my intention. Anyone playing a Necromancer that will ever even remotely consider splitting mobs on a pull using Feign Death, either for solo or for group use, would always in every case be better off having a CoS. It honestly does add a (small) extra dimension to the class, and anyone playing a Monk would KILL to have access to it. If you were in EC right now and patiently waited until two or three sellers of the pre nerf were advertising against each other during prime time, you could probably score one for a 7-8k offer "all plat, right now". If you play the character more than casually, you'd be an idiot not to.

unless you are slumming in a very low level zone, you cant use it for pulling because of the hate list wipe chance. Good god, quit saying this crap people. It's like you copy and pasted people sposts from 13 years ago before the hate wipe nerf on FD. Beginning to wonder if 90% of the people posting in this thread ever even played a necro over level 30. Sound like a bunch of noobs, necro or otherwise.
