This is massive, and results in about 5% boost to group DPS. No other class can give this to others, and only Templar can empower themselves easily (and not rely on a Necro). Necro DPS cannot use this skill effectively, and Necro tanks are often not in a good position to cast it on everyone. Empower alone makes Necro healer unique and powerful, arguably the best offensive support class (Warden is the best defensive support class).
They also have access to the Colossus ultimate, which is a nice option when you don’t need a 4th Warhorn or a defensive ult.

By offensive you mean the many debuffs that necro can use. I also notice that necro can do some dps with totem, mage and grave yard
