Re: Second profession for Necro 

i find mesmer to be a good secondary profession to any other profession. that would probabaly be my recomendation to you. Also i could see Monk working well as well. I have also had my behind handed to me by a N/W in the Arenas in the past. He was great!

Re: Second profession for Necro 

for death i would think monk or mesmer would be nice, since you could actually build up alot of pets.
with mesmer you could steal energy to keep casting constantly, and with monk you could use heal area to keep them alive

Re: Second profession for Necro 

You should be a Mesmer if you are gunna be using a lot of Blood Magic and Curses. I would invest a lot into Inspiration magic if you are gunna use this setup.
Monk if you are gunna be a zombie guy. Area Heal is great for those little demons.

Re: Second profession for Necro 

From experience, a necro with high soul reaping gets energy faster than it recharges.

If you want control, Necro / Mesmer, Soul Reaping at lvl 8-10ish, Dominatino on MAX and Rest into Inspiration (Soul Feast).

If you want healer / smiter, Necro / Monk. Soul Reap + Whatever.

Basically put, you're primary necro is good for energy recovery...you're secondary will be you're job =D Usually works good that way. If you want to use necro skills...then yeah use Mesmer secondary. The inspiration backup tends to help. Later on, if you dont like Necro skills, you can just convert into Mesmer skills and you'll be set =).

Re: Second profession for Necro 

Mesmer is definitely the best second profession I tried. I'm a N/Me and I focused on Blood and inspiration:
Blood: 14
Inspiration: 12
Soul reaping: 5 (more than that is kinda useless cause it costs too many points for 3 or 4 more energy when something dies...)

good skills for a lot of situations (but mostly PvP):
energy drain (elite): steal 19 (or 19?...not sure)
energy trap : steal 12
ether feast : keeps you healed and steals foe's energy
vampiric gaze : steal 56 (or something like that)
dark pact : 46 shadow dmg
life siphon : 3 health regen for you, 3 degeneration for him
vampiric touch : steal 71(or 76)
(rez signet)
- Well of blood might be a good spell to bring too -
- if you fight with a monk in your team, blood ritual is really useful -

For PvPing (4/4 and maybe more but...it doesn't fit in any team build) this is a really good combination; it gives you some independance cuz it works with every team you'll fight with in 4/4 arena : It gives you a good damage output, (not specially against warriors, but against casters; they'll run out of energy; then you just have to hex'em and suck everything of em till they die :D ). You'll surely have a problem against a domination-mesmer, but it's good for anything else! I suggest you this build if you wanna start PvP cuz it's a really simple build and it's funny to see casters panic when they realize they just lost 31 energy in 5 sec :D. If you go for heavier PvP, I think a blood/curse/dom build or something like that could really help your team mates!
anyway...I hope I helped you!
Good luck!
