Easy way to raise Evocation?Follow

Easy way to raise Evocation?

Greetings dealers of death

i started a necro and i'm loving it!
i've managed to fly through the levels and get to 45 in the hotspots.
However, now that i have ignite/incinerate bones, i find my evocation sorely lacking.
Is there any way to raise the skill other than nuking a bunch of low-level undead in Unrest?
Ive been able to raise my Abjuration by chain casting the shield spells in the Healing pool in Guild Hall( and Divination Alteration and Conjuration have been taking care of themselves throughout my adventuring), but ive not been able to cast any of my evocation spells on my pet.
Can i go to the Arena and Nuke my pet there to raise evocation?

Suggestions, hints, advice anyone?
