Not all of the elites you listed are bad - I should have pruned it down. Really I was picking up on IV.
Top three Necro elites?
In no particular order:
OoV
OoU
I'm reluctant to say Cultist's Fervor - it's one of Nec elites I use the most (if not the most), but I don't like it much.
However I would put Pain of Disenchantment and Wail of Doom on there before SS.
If it weren't for the recharges, I would also say Ravenous Gaze and Feast of Corruption - I still might.
I haven't said AotL because I'm still trying to weigh that in my mind. Jagged Bones is of questionable worth - you take it because there isn't anything good to give a hero (other than AotL, which I rate above JB).

The same applies to a lot of the Necromancer elites. The things that make Wail not worth bothering with are things that make Pain of Disenchantment not worth bothering with and are the same things that completely trivialise Icy Veins and Feast of Corruption (ignoring the fact that IV is conditional armour-sensitive damage and FoC is hideous to use). SS suffers similarly but SS has other issues that make it questionable
before you weigh in the "power-creeped OP bullshit PvE offers".
But this isn't unique to the Necromancer. The Necromancer just has fewer elite toys than some of the others.
The reason why I refrained from posting too much detail was because I knew it'd drag this thread off on a tangent and I'm pretty sure this stuff has been covered before in the Nec forum.
