Template 1:
110 Tame
110 Lore
100 Vet
100 Mage
100 Eval
100 Med
100 Spellweaving

Template 2:
110 Tame
110 Lore
100 Vet
100 Necro
100 Spirt
100 Med
100 Mage

Template 3:
110 Tame
110 Lore
100 Vet
100 Necro
100 Spirit
100 Magery
100 Spellweaving

number 2 for sure. necro just has too much versatility to skip over, and there are times when med is a must. semidar is a good example; i have gm med, 14 mr on my suit, and 13/10 seconds regen in lich form, and i need every bit of it when i duo her with a friend. i can heal my dragon through her damage without retreating or resetting the fight. gift of renewal is overrated :p

i would tweak that template a little, though. this is what i'm running:

110 taming
110 lore
90 vet
100 necro (95 base)
120 spirit speak (110 base)
110 magery (105 base)
100 med

Six in template 1, a half dozen in template 2.

Advantages for template 1:
Word of Death
Gift of renewal

Advantages for template 2:
Lich form
Wraith form
Wither
Necro-curses

I ran template 1 (a variant of, I had more magery) for a while, and I loved it.

Well I'd rule out the third template, as you've got 3 casting skills and no med ;) Spellweaving sucks up mana like nobody's business, so I think the third is going to be tricky for that reason :)

I'd probably choose 1 over 2 because if you get a high enough focus, spellweaving is great. You also don't have the negative karma issues a necro has with certain spawns. That said necro tamers are great fun, so maybe you should build one of each :D
