Once you hit 60 on a necro is there any thing you can really excel at that an enchanter can't do better?

I played both classes in the old days and the necro is clearly better outdoors, although it doesn't really show until Planes of Power which obviously doesn't matter on P99. In dungeons I would be pretty much indifferent as a player, but obviously the big point is that people love enchanters while they don't care about necros that much.

The problem on P99 is that the project simply skips the phase when necros were the most powerful class in the game. At one point, the lvl 49 pet armed with 2 fine steel daggers did more damage than a lvl 50 monk with Cloak of Flames. Since P99 started with the nerfed version there is certainly less incentive to play necro. Yet with a good guild it doesn't matter anyways.
