I would have to go with Bioluminescent Orb as it is awesome for pulling. Atleast when I watched some higher level necros pulled their mobs

wand of the war wizard, blood runed wand..for droppables. Wand of the ice/fire storm aren't bad. There's anice 1hb from poair(EP). Algae covered stelleto(PoWater). Wand of temporal power and wand of impenetrable forces(time drops). There's another from bertoxulous as wellin CoD I'm bad with item names heh.

I don't know jeb. Wand of the War Wizard is Druzzil, = focus of magic, which is marginally useful. (Lifetaps and Snares). Ice wand isnt any good either other than stats, because the focus is Eci which we get like... one nuke that is cold based?
Personally, since I do not have a BA4 robe from LDoN yet, I use Ceramic Shackles of Torment in main hand, Secondary is Ceramic Incence Burner of Ro, and range is Ceramic Gavel of Justice (You might want to use Ceramic Skull of Decay instead here). Between them all I use less mana, and what mana I use is turned into allot more dmg.
All of these are droppable (though some are VERY expensive), so I listed them. Those that are not droppable dont matter anyhow because you will know if you can or should use them when / IF the time comes for you to switch.

I cant give advice on anything but the Zheart. I have the Zheart and I'm an Iksar, so my regen rate is like... fast. I hold this item as my best item, because an extra 5 hp per tick knocks me up to about 12 regen total right now. Call of Bones still drains a bit away, but, not near as much as it would without the extra regen. Who knows, the other items may outdo this due to effects, but thats what I know about the Zhearts value.

Zheart should not be used as a primary unless it is a backup or you cant afford better. Regen is cool and needed, but what would you rather have fighting, Burning affliction and improved dmg, or regen and one of the others? Zheart has no focus effect other than regen. Regen items for primary, secondary, or range are best for downtime IF you do not have the listed focus effects in your other armour slots. jmho.
Fighting in veksar, I am FM and FH, and pet is close with using Saryn Kiss, and shadowbonding to pet as well as ToD as needed and nothing else used. Zheart would add nothing in that situation since SK is doing so much more than innate regen and you are FH anyhow... what does regen do for you when you are FH already and using SK to offset shadowbond on your pet? nothing.. it is idle. But a burning affliction item is working at every tick to hurt the mob.
