Poison Necro in Players 8 Hell: Uh oh.

[Ignatz]

It's a fast, high damage spell even in Hell right now. But it's no more powerful than several sorc spells, and CE requires corpses, isn't "aim and fire" (being dependent on the corpse location), interacts poorly with cold skeleton magi (and other cold damage), and is awfully mana hungry.

I think it's in a very good place right now. It's a great killing tool that's definitely situational and only mildly flexible. That and there are two separate immunities that can halve the damage.

Besides, Bone Spear and Spirit have turned out to be fairly disappointing as Arty necro tools.
