I don't really know the answer as I have not had experience playing a necro, but I can give you my side of the view as a level 50 mage. Mages are pure power and completely lack CC. We lack the ability to really break a camp well, but the 49 earth pet is so powerful that most of the time I will just take the camp at once. For instance, I broke the room with bubblehead in kedge alone with the earth pet. I have also figured out how to break Kings room in LGuk solo.

I guess I would say that Necros have the advantage in farming because they have more versatility since they can FD and get easier breaks, while a mage just has to try to take the multiples at once. Its hard to say though cause when you get that 49 earth pet you feel pretty unstoppable.
