The recast time on your shadowbond line off spells is shorter than the duration. You can cast your heal on one person, and while they are still receiving the heal over time, you can cast it on another person as well before it fades. It just refreshes your dot instead of adding an additional dot to you. You can have 2 people receiving your heal for the price of 1.
Always have a mob in camp as a grouped necro, no downtime. Keep those heals flowing non stop. Drain + heal all day. Gauge the damage received/output, adjust your heals accordingly, screaming terror to interrupt nukes, snare fear as an above poster mentioned, aggro kite, etc. Find creative ways to mitigate damage, slowing is not the only way. If your slower takes notice, they'll stop slowing = more mana for dps = faster kills = more xp.
Very contentious, but avoid twitching as much as you can. Twitching = losing. Far too many times have I twitched people only to watch them be completely inefficient with their mana, or waste precious ticks of mana standing for no reason. Once you get a finger on the pulse of the group, you dictate where the resources go. Stand your ground to whiney mana leeches. Don't be rude, offer coaching.
I know this was a gear question but some great play advise was dropped here so here's my 2cp.
