Necros and SKs are both high maintenance during an engagement. Cant really recommend pairing the two. I was thinking about this just recently myself. A bard is an easy choice for many reasons, but of the two I think I would prefer dirge over troub. A mystic is also not a bad choice choice due to group mit and insane prewarding and Oberon.

Previous poster is right, both are high maintenance during combat. However, I would pick a troub over a dirge any day. Spec the troub for casting speed + crit % chance and use the abilities that proc on a spell cast and you will increase your dps quite high.

The reason I was thinking Dirge was because of Luck of the Dirge increasing your proc chance. The crit chance (I assume you mean DKTM) is a bard ability.Tell me about the casting speed of the troub. I didnt see that in the AA tree for them. This must be a buff, most likely a temporary buff? If so (and assuming it can be AA enhanced), how much casting speed are we talking about and for how long?

You will find it a very nice combination. I have a level 70 necromancer and Troubador and I love two boxing them.
