The sheer ease with which the Mage farms greens make them far superior in this niche than every other class, even if a few classes can hang with them in terms of kill speed.
Necro pet good enough to do that too tho?

Or is it slightly too weak?

Necros farm droga fine, pet isn't as tough but necro heals and whatnot make up for it.
On my mage I just resummon when they get low. I would be surprised if they're even 10% slower.

You can half button presses by binding the target nearest npc key to a macro that has a small delay before issuing /pet attack.

OP, do you have a 60 necro?

Why not try farming Droga and factioning up? At that point try a few camps.

I mainly mentioned mowing down greens as that is one path to make plat and pet classes do well there. Mages can’t really put down tough targets but necros can.

Unless you want to make a sham for more group fun or an ench for that or solo superiority, necros can do very well. Charm, fear, dot rot. Tank/tap. So many options.

For real-time spent farming, I wonder if a big race warrior with weighted axe could do Droga by kiting the whole dungeon to exit, Furious discing, then zoning if there is stuff left alive. Average Riposte damage in 9 seconds with weighted axe is close to goblin HP, I think. Might be interesting to try and see if there's a sweet spot or if they're just a bit too strong/the casters get you. If you kite for at least 7 minutes all the damage shields will be down as well.

Hour long recharge on the disc might make it bad even if you can fill your whole bags in 15 minutes, but it gives a natural time to go sell, so maybe?
