more power for this ability, or create a new item.
and make bonuses that depend on a commanded rune last for a few seconds after the commandment ended. Like 4-5 seconds.
It stops constant hammering you keyboard and lets you do smooth damage even if the skelletons just killed the elite and are not commanded for a second or two until you realise.

You can auto-numlock Command Skeletons.
If you do not attack, it won’t trigger.
But if you attack (Ex: Grim Scythe on an ennemy), your skeletons will take this ennemy as a target and Command Skeletons will be triggered.
You can use this tactic with any Necromancer build, pairing with Obsidian ring, to reduce your cooldown.

(2) Set:
When the target of your Command Skeletons dies, your skeletons are automatically commanded to attack a nearby target.
While your skeletons are commanded to attack a target, all of your minions deal 400% increased damage.
- Legendary Phylactery
The damage bonus of Command Skeletons increases by 27% per second they spend attacking the same target. This effect stacks up to 60 times. (Necromancer Only) [25 - 30]%
- Legendary Chest Armor
While in the Land of the Dead, Command Skeletons deals 110% additional damage and gains the effect of the Enforcer, Frenzy, Dark Mending and Freezing Grasp runes. (Necromancer Only) [100 - 125]%
I’m just saying, why only these 3 objects?
they could give it more relevance and be able to play a LOD.

The real problem is, outside Thorns, Skeletons indeed do not make enought damage on their own.
They’re already doing this next patch, have you read the PTR notes? Jesseth Arms are being reworked so that your command skeletons will increase ALL of your damage by 400%. This will likely make command skeletons a lot more important for dealing damage.
Not every ability can be the main damage dealer itself. That wouldn’t be very fun if all six abilities you had were just damage dealers in their own right. Some abilities have to be more utility-based, defensive, or a setup for your other abilities. That’s basically what command skeletons is. They setup your other sources of damage.
