#51661, "A fair compromise?"
|
What about this possible solution?
There is code in place to determine what percent damage was done to a PC that killed it. If this code extends to NPCs, maybe there can be a sliding scale of 'how much damage was done to this zombie by the necromancer' vs. 'how easy is it summon the zombie away.' Maybe if a certain threshold is reached (90%+) then a Kaubris' Anchor type of spell might be placed on the zombie when it's created. If the necromancer has non-class specific protections like sanctuary or receives any out of range healing it invalidates this process and the zombie is treated as regular and summonable.
Or.. scratch all that, and give necromancers a Kaubris' Anchor spell to retain up to two of their undead. So greater undead + one zombie.
That seems like a nice balance in risk vs. reward for both the necromancer and his range. If a necro spends the whole session making a high level zombies, he probably deserves a bit of a higher power scale to roll with. Like Thrak was saying, having zombies doesn't necessarily equate to more kills, but I imagine those who take the time to earn them should enjoy their benefits.
