Rotation:
You are basically trying to cast dots on cooldown, but if you are looking for a written out sample rotation, it goes something like this:

PreBuff: Inner Light>Skeletal Archer>Barswap
1. Blastbones>BarSwap>Blockade>Trap>Barswap>Blastbones>Mystic Siphon>Avid Boneyard>Blastbones>Ricochet Skull x 2 (Use ult here)
2. Blastbones>Barswap>Blockade>Barswap>Ricochet Skull>Blastbones>Barswap>Skeletal Archer>Barswap>Ricochet Skull>Blastbones>Mystic Siphon>Avid Boneyard
3. Blastbones>Barswap>Blockade>Trap>Barswap>Blastbones>Ricochet Skull x 2>Blastbones>Mystic Siphon>Avid Boneyard
4. Blastbones>Barswap>Blockade>Skeletal Archer>Barswap>Blastbones>Ricochet Skull x 2>Blastbones>Barswap>Trap>Barswap>Ricochet Skull>
5. Blastbones>Barswap>Blockade>Barswap>Ricochet Skull>Blastbones>Mystic Siphon>Avid Boneyard>Blastbones>Ricochet Skull>Barswap>Skeletal Archer

Repeat steps 3 thru 5.

Keep in mind that because all of the DoTs have different lengths there will be a 4 sec window when your Mystic Siphon and Avid Boneyard are down. For best results play dynamically.

    Is inferno/inferno best? I generally have no idea people tell me inferno/lightning and lightning/inferno.

    Do they differ between classes?

    1 Infused vMA Inferno Staff (Weapon Damage enchant)
    All Armor with Magicka Enchants. All Jewelry Infused with Weapon damage enchants.

    I think you mean Spell damage enchants on jewelry.

    Since the weapon and spell damage enchant is the same on weapon the meaning is easily understood for the listed staff enchant, but hopefully no one use weapon damage jewelry glyphs on a magicka build.

    Nice looking build btw. I'll have to try it when I get around to making a magicka necromancer.

    While currently effective, I would pause and take a breath until tweaks happen.


    Also this build looks like it will give carpal tunnel :D
