I've never played a necro. I think I've only played sorc, rogue, barb, priest, and shaman, actually. But a casual glance at the necromancer spellset puts them near the top of the PvP pack even if you ignore animate dead and control undead. Here is a log of Aldric fighting a 3v5 in which he has put four of his opponents to sleep and has begun picking them off one by one:

The NPCs are asleep because a sleep stave was brandished (accounting for one of the sleeping PCs as well). When was the last time anyone ever saw a necromancer cast sleep in a fight? It's easily one of the best spells in the game but they're too busy doing o all bash to even bother.
