Hi!
It sounds fun, but personally I hate Poison Nova. If I were going to max Iron Maiden for use with attract and confuse, I would also max Bone Prison. A maxed bone prison is nice for containing dangerous foes, and while you wont get any experience points from Bone Prison + Iron Maiden, it *will* kill bosses.
In fact, Bone Prison would probably be just fine with 5 or 10 points.
Also, I hate, hate, hate, hate, despise Bone Spirit. I dont like the way it looks, I dont like the taste, and I dont like how weak and mana heavy it is. HOWEVER, with immunities to physical, you just about "have" to invest in it. Sure, you dont have to, but I have tried taking a necromancer through hell with all the physical immunes and no bone spirit and I just got sick of running away from Physical Immunes ... even more sick that I am of shooting a hell monster 10 times before it dies. I also dont like Poison Nova for similar reasons, and I dont like skeletal mages, and fire golems dont really do any significant fire damage. Grr.
So, if it were me I'd feel compelled to max Bone Spirit. *sigh*
I'd personally do Confuse 8, Attract 8, Bone Prison 8, Iron Maiden 20, Bone Spirit 20, Revive 1, Summon Resist 1, Lower Resist 1, Pre-reqs 15. That'd put you at level 71.
Actually since you want to take on crowds, and the bone prison + iron maiden can work against msot bosses, you could consider bone spear instead of bone spirit. Hmm.
