Necromancer Painworking Spec

Is there a reason to ever take this spec? I like DoTs so I keep looking at it, but it's dots are just so bad. Worse damage and double the tick time of every other specced DoT in the game... Am I not seeing something or is it really that bad?

I haven't Tested it yet, but I remember back on Mordred when it was live (Man I'm old) that the Pet's PBAOE DoT interrupted casters. The Shade dot DOES NOT Stack with the pet dot unfortunately unless Eden has changed it, and I'm unsure if the Shade DoT interrupts Casters. The Good thing about Painworking is the Aoe Str/Con debuff, as well as an Unbreakable Snare unlike the default Snare the Pet casts. Only thing I would see, is Debuffing Str/Con, then Con, Af Debuff so the pet hits more "Like a Super DoT" along with the Shade or Pet DoT and maybe Champion Level DoTs I see from the Character Builder if I am reading it right.
