If you have a monk why not use Contagion + Masochism instead?

I'm pretty sure he'll be fine.

The most important reason I didn't choose Contagion is because the enemies have to be in nearby range, which is closer than I'd like them to be. You also need something to remove the conditions from yourself, it doesn't add the great 200% increased duration and it still takes your elite slot. I'd much rather have a mesmer with Fevered Dreams spread the conditions. The fact that Contagion is in Death Magic would require a whole different build too.

Funny cartoon though.

Contagion does actually work In The Area, the skill description is wrong. It still is pretty near, though.

You can run a Contagion build with quite limited Death Magic investment, to be honest. But, it's not a strong general build. (Melee N/D Contagion Dark Aura Spike ftw!! )

Lol I used 2 N/D's with contagion a 2 ZF/smiter's boon monks to VQ some areas. It's quite suicidal but very fun to play.
As for contagion over plague signet, I wouldn't recommend it. I just don't like contagion, and it's in the wrong line imo.

rats I should have known that since my main character is a necro.

I will now wander into the wilderness until I feel I deserve to be seen in civilised society again.
Well my necro will
