It's like walking into a Necro with a full army of Zombies, its something you do NOT want to do. Hard to avoid, but part of life. Conjurers certainly have nice tricks about them.

They require a lot of time to prepare (not as much as necromancers, but it can be really annoying at times). Overall, if a necromancer and a conjurer went at it, my odds would be on the necromancer, hands down.
