I was just wondering if a Warrior(main) would go well with a Necromancer(second).
Im doing PVE stuff right now, just quests and missions.

Ask yourself: what does the Necromancer profession bring me, as a Warrior, that is valuable? The only decent answer to that is Plague Touch (condition removal), which you can do without. I wouldn't bother.

Two, possibly 3 things you get from necromanceer from a warrior.

Plague Touch/Sending
Barbs/Mop
Mark of Fury

Of these, most are better off on an offcharacter, and condition removal is better served by mend touch, antidote signet, or remedy signet.

Rigor Mortis too. But like Luminarus says, bring a seperate character for all the Curses support.

Because 16 curses>8 curses.

Secondary is pretty useless for a warrior in PvE, unless you run daggers/scythe ofc.
You are probably alrdy using 3 PvE only skills, and you have 5 slots left.
I've seen good use of W/R with pet+Never Rampage Alone.

Search around wiki, look at skills and think.

As I always point out to new players, you can also change your secondary at any time later in the storyline.

So you aren't locked in to any of your choices.

mathiastemplars point about W/ not really needing a secondary is pretty true, if you are playing in groups or H/H you should have more W skills that you want to take then can fit on your bar.

Now if you would like to solo or be creative with some uber fun builds /N is a GREAT secondary, be creative and play with some skill combos and you will find there is much more to do with a W/N then Plague Touch, as most people seem to think.
