Hmm, help me with a q's plz!

Hi all, relatively new to the site, but not very new to GW, played in a few of the beta's. I've been looking into seeing how to make the most of my necro main, and unfortuntaly, it's not going well. I've played as a necro/mes for most of the beta's, playing around with mes/ele, ele/mes, and other DOT types of jobs.

Ok, well let me get to the points here. I have a few questions:

* Other than energy steal skills from the mesmer profession, or energy storage techniques from the elementalist, (and well of power by necro), is there any way a necro can get a steady/semi-steady stream of energy?

* Do you think it's possible to make a necro build that would be able to do large bursts of damage to gain attention and then have the survivability to stay alive long enough for team members to take others out? ( I have many ideas for this, trying to work a build for it,if you want more info, lemme know).

*Other than a straight up supporter, do you think a necro can become a good crippling class?(working on a build for this, looks ok on paper so far). I mean, having the ability to render even perhaps a mesmer/elementalist/warrior useless for an effective period of time?( I mean at least 2 of the 3 at almost the same time)

They're general questions, and may seem stupid, but I haven't played enough pvp with my necro to know the answers to these questions, and I just don't have the time at the moment to go search through every possible skill in the game to my answer for #1.

Thanks in advance!

my warrior/necro takes a beating an keeps on ticking, with damage done by my sword skills plus my DOT's i deal a pretty heavy amount of damage plus regain life from exploiting corpses or casting several DOT's at once on several diff enemies

Soul Reaping? That works in PvE more than it does PvP, though. Depends on how high your body count is going to get in PvP.

I originally read that as "be able to take large bursts of damage" so that got me to thinking about Illusion of Weakness if you are going Mesmer secondary. I think that perhaps suddenly dropping in health (obviously during battle and not before) would gain more attention than doing a large amount of damage. They would more likely look around you to see who was doing the damage than at you. Nice way to take attention of your friends and become the target of the enemy.

I was going to go Necro secondary for a Monk that I was going to play with a warrior friend, and yeah, it looks great on paper. I would go with Faintheartedness and Shadow of Fear, but if you want to be crippling that's more of a Mesmer sort of thing.

necros can definitely get some burst dmg out, look into some of the skills that do shadow dmg, and stack them with dark aura

the idea is that death arua deals dmg when ever you sacrifice life, so if you do some of the skills like death pact, touch of agony, signet of agony, you can deal quite a bit + DOT skills like life siphon and transfer to get your HP back

I have a pretty sexy build like this

well I had a few minutes to go over some skills more in depth, and Offering of Blood can steal 8-18energy for a sac. of 10%hp... but it's an elite skill. If I'm gonna use an elite in the blood line, it'd be either well of power(elite?) or life transfer I'm thinking.

life trans looks the best elite so far, well of power can be good if youre going pure necro or useinf necro as your primary
