Now, consider what happens if you cast desecrate (+1HP/HD to all undead created in the area, permanently, +2 if there's an alter nearby) with this metamagic. Permanent +2hp/HD on all undead you create! Combined with Corpse Crafter and either Dread Necromancer 8 or the UA Necromancer substitution, you can get a total of +8 HP/HD on all your undead... quite handy indeed. And now consider Awaken Undead, which sets their Int to 1d6+4... now your awakened guys are smarter, permanently. Nifty. Not sure if there's other spells with permanent numerical bonuses for undead, but this sure is handy. JaronK |

Is anyone else thinking what I'm thinking? I think so, Brain. But what if the chicken doesn't want to wear the nylons? I think even stronger undead actually. And me likes the sound of that. |
| #4phaedrusxyMar 23, 2008 0:14:19 | What about casting Wish on yourself (an undead) for an inherent bonus? You'd get a +3 from one Wish the way this sounds, right? |
| #5trickydevl666Mar 23, 2008 0:17:01 | That sounds exactly right. How much does it increase the spell level? |
| #6sinfire_titanMar 23, 2008 0:20:26 | +1 Slot. Damn. For something so broken, it has a low slot adjustment. |
| #7phoenix00Mar 23, 2008 0:31:45 | Also things such as Draconic Polymorph, Mage Armor, True Strike, etc get bonuses from stuff like this. |
