You only need 2 points in Alchemy to get to Transmute. All other points should be spent in either Necromancy, Ritual if you need it and Energy. Necromancy is probably the skill you'd want to invest more points in than any other. Energy isn't as needed if all Stat points are going into Intelligence (and also because Undead get Summon Mana at Tier 3) but could be useful to put some points in. Ritual might need one or two points but Intelligence should fix that too. The class will essentially work exactly the same as a Necromancer except for being slightly worse at Necromancy but have access to Transmute.
