Breaking charm is another good use. You can get away with not having one for sure, but you're gimping a necros capabilities. And necro at full potential really stands out.

If you are running through a dangerous area and your invis starts to fade you can refresh your invis without it ever breaking. Or if you are training mobs somewhere you can re-invs on the run so you don't get smashed by mobs ahead of you. You can do the same thing with a ring of shadow but it only has 3 charges. Main instances that come to find are plane of sky and VP.

If you charm undead you can break your charm instantly they don't care that it's not invisibility vs undead. Even invisibility vs animals works for this.

You can also use it in conjunction with feign death. FD, pop up and quickly invis without gaining agro.
I can understand the whole running and staying invisible or breaking charm. Speaking of which, I don't think I have ever seen a Necro use charm on a live mob or an undead mob. But I do solo a lot so maybe they do it in groups?

Feign Death has never been a problem for me. Maybe it's because I have the mob fight with my pet while I'm casting Darkness then Fear. So if I do need to cast FD then the mob is more busy with my pet than thinking about me...
