Soul Reaping: 8 (7+1)

Death Magic: 13 (9+4)
Illusion Magic: 10
Skills:
1)Dark Pact
2)Touch of Agony
3)Barbed Signet
4)Dark Aura
5)Blood Renewal
6)Aura of the lich
7)Illusion of Weakness
8)Rez sig/Distortion/soul feast
Summary:
Allows you to Spam your sacrificial skills with dark pact and do a very high dps while having 2 skills that will fully heal you when necessary, and aura of the lich which will make them fully heal you, as well as allow blood renewal to be much more effective. Basically follows same guidelines as a normal dark bomber. Distortion is a maybe, depending on how good you are at controlling your energy, and if there are no other necros that use corpses (of if you're soloing), soul feast is a great 10 energy full heal that will keep you going that much longer
Alternative skills:
Signet of agony + plague sending is a great combo for high mob killing damage (triggers dark aura twice, signet of agony damage, and bleeding for ~20 seconds to everything)
Edit: Adjusted Attribute points to add more death, blood, and soul reaping at the cost of 1 illusion. Changed minor death to superior death rune. Damage should now be a lot higher, with almost no bad stuff from the -75 more health, as illusion of weakness will regenerate it all back when used. (note: illusion of weakness must be used before aura of the lich). Make sure to use blood renewal to cover your other enchants

You're putting 11 points into illusion just to get 1 skill? Seems kind of a waste.
For better life + energy, use consume corpse (your death and blood should be maxed - better damage and longer enchant durations)
You don't need barbed signet since it needlessly cripples you with a long lasting bleeding (which you have no way to remove), and it has a long recharge. ANything that reduces your life regen is a serious hazard.
Replace barbed signet with life siphon (they get -3 degen, you get +3 for only 10e - easily replaced if you kill someone fast and use consume corpse). Or go N/Mo and get holy veil (amazing anti hex that will remove anything from migraine to distortion to backfire to crippling anguish to lightning surge - all spells that will seriously reduce your dp and/or reduce your survivability).

dark aura

touch of agony
darc pact
consume corpse
Contemplation of Purity(ass saving skill)

max out death then put everything else in blood. you'll have 4 or so in soul reaping. i agree with AK, 11 in illusion just for IoW is not a good idea.
you don't need anything in divine to get a good use of CoP. it drops AoL and puts you back to full health. consume corpse moves you out of trouble and gives you some energy and heal. the extra energy consume corpse gives allows you to keep soul reaping so low. it's not the great in 4v4 anyway.

I believe 11 points into illusion will help a lot, as it will let me continue to fight twice as long, and even better if i decide to use distortion. secondly, barbed signet doesn't give me any negative conditions-i sacrifice health and steal some. i think you're mixing that up with signet of agony, which i included in alternative skills to mix with plague sending for high damage output. I would rather use soul feast than consume corpse because if i don't puss out and run away from a fight like you all are suggesting, i shouldn't have any trouble killing something to get a corpse/bennefit from soul reaping.
On CoP, I would rather have illusion of weakness and get the full heal when i need it instead of losing all of my enchantments just to trigger aura of the lich, in which case i'd be dead in the water. if you haven't tried out my build, it's probably best not to say it wont work unless you do.

I would use Sv instead of distortion if your plaining on keeping points in illsuion.
