Why does a necro need J-boots? Sure, it's nice, but SoW potions suffice during long travel times when you can't get a SoW. All soloing methods basically require the necro to stand still.

All soloing methods definitely do not require you to stand still and is pretty poor advice to any Necro getting started. At the end of the day, if something goes wrong, being faster than whatever's chasing you is what's most important. Adds are gonna add, FD is going to fail, and sometimes you just need to run.
SoW potions are a fine budget item, but eventually you'll want jboots. SoW runs out at inopportune times and can be dispelled. Jboots are great for resetting GCD, take up 1 spot in your inventory, and are a great bang for your buck. There's not a class out there that can't make use of jboots (maybe not Druid, but jboots are an easy farm for a GCD clicky).
Once you get some starter gear, jboots and pre-nerf CoS should be the first thing you buy, then as many tinker bags as you can carry. Necros make plat at a ridiculous rate, there's no reason not to spoil yourself.
My must have list:
2 velium vapor vials
Leatherfoot raider cap
2 stalking probes
Words of darkness
jboots
pre-nerf CoS
Outpost Hammer
7 tinker bags
