Some of that guy's numbers are way off. For example:

Quote:
My Necro is a level 54 Iksar geared for HP (BS jewelry, Staff of the Waterwalker, HBC,etc...) and is sitting around 1500 HP self buffed, with 2000 mana and 155 INT. An Erudite Necro with identical gear plus GEBs and Mantels of Souls would be around 200 INT with 2500 mana and the same 1500 HP.
GEBs and Mantel doesn't give an extra 45 INT over an Iksar wearing grave sandals. Mantel is nice. Regen takes the sting out of Lich line. The Lich line is balanced around Necros having to lifetap more, which is very mana inefficient as far as nukes go. Because of regen you don't have to do this. With Kunark and Velious it's insanely easy to hit 200 INT and thus Iksar can focus on more HP gear and the added benefit of not needing to tap so much.
