Necro wouldn't make a good GM killer because most of them GMs like to spam PBAoE attacks, many of which will send your pets flying 
Thanks for reply Silver, I know you're pretty serious about soloing stuff. You mentioned GMs but what about AV's? I know that the plan is to stay out of range of the GM, hovering while in bodyguard mode and taunting. Are you saying it wouldn't work, or?
Here's another slightly modified build.

Hellgirl. Fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more on car insurance.

Hovering off range while taunting might work, just make sure that your pets are getting the buff from Supremacy.
It looks like you can do just fine against AVs, your priority should be having +recharge to cut the downtime on Howling Twilight as much as you can, while grabing the attention of the AV and keeping your pets safe. You might also want to invest a few more slots into Provoke, it's a very important power for this task.
My girlfriend is wanting an AV or GM killer (the latter of which isn't as important!) and she's been working on a build. I was hoping others could share some insight as Masterminds are a bit outside my range of knowledge. Am I incorrect in telling her this is possible? Can it be done, and if so, is this the right sort of build? What sort of bonuses should be headed toward? My assumption was defenses and that's what this build is mostly built around.
Any light that could be shed would be greatly appreciated!
(EDIT: build updated and format fixed.)
