It is used for every part of the efficient charm process, it's used for travel, it's used right after FD, enables numerous strategies, etc.

Honestly, if I met a necromancer above 50 who did not have a pre-nerf CoS and never used one, I would assume they are not knowledgeable of the class, and are not even close to their full potential. I understand some necromancers not having it due to it being a first toon and needing to save plat, but that's the only excuse I would accept. After level 50ish, it's pretty much inexcusable to not have and use a CoS. It's like not having screaming terror, or DMF. I would never, ever, get rid of my CoS.
I'm not looking for arguments or insults or fights but I'll ask again... Why is a COS so terrific for a Necromancer?

I have a level 53 Necromancer which I have soloed about 95% of the time and I have never come across a time when I needed a COS that bad... Sure, I have used FD before but it was never anything where I was totally stuck and couldn't get out of the situation.

I'm just looking on really being sold on the idea to spend the 10K instead of just being told that I have to have one cause I'm a Necro...
