raiding necro

[kenzar]

Whats everyones opinion on what a necro should be doing on a raid?

[Kastro]

Feed Mana to clerics.. dot up the big mobs..

[Bubbles]

Turn on lich, then immediately send /tells to each enchanter for clarity.

Use F8 to target the closest MOB and send pet after it.

Use Ignite Bones constantly, because turning Spinechillers into tarantulas and Revultant Rats into the huggable squeaky variety... never gets old.

Don't bother buying spells like Dispell and the mana pump line, you'll need your mana to killsteal at all times.

Make sure your pet is parked in front of the raid, preferably somewhere between the pullers, the picker, and the main assist in order to get immediate aggro. This way your pet is always randomly fighting something if you need to take a ninja AFK for a few hours until more Boogeymen repop.

If you insist on mana-pumping, make sure you pump the wizard in your group. Because those enchanters and clerics aren't doing shit for your team's DPS.

Make a macro to send a /tell to the monks pulling, letting them know which mobs you prefer to be pulled. Use this macro liberally. If you are out of macros, turn your "main assist" macro into the /tell macro, since you can just use F8 to pick targets during the raid.

Umm.. That should cover it.

Comprehensive and thorough.

P.S. - Do not let anyone turn you into a sentient manastone. It's a small part of your class - it is not your class.

[Vigilance]

send in your pet to attack and then go afk like every leveling necro does

[Tronjer]

Always try to fear adds if possible. So they don't have to be tanked and clerics can save mana for nukes.
