Viability of a Nec/Monk duo?

[vexorile]

Hey guys, a couple of friends and I are gonna start playing together soon. The third guy is undecided, might play Shaman, but honestly I'm not sure he'll stick around. That leaves me as a Nec and my other buddy as a Monk. I've tried searching google but I don't see too many mentions of this duo. How viable is it? We're both most likely gonna roll Iksar. It may suck not having buffs, regen, sow, slow, or teleports, but as long as this duo works reasonably well together we'd like to play these classes. Thoughts?
