Too bad there aren't any no-melee rooms :(


But there is, the 1 person limit rooms are no-melee. Range only.

Prior to the change, you could order your undead army to sit in one room while you entered a no-magic room and they would still be there when you returned.

I don't believe this is possible any longer since no magic rooms cause you to release all your spells.

I doubt the necromancer class will ever be a threat again. Its too bad that this change was put in. I hate it. Why couldn't the limit of animates be equal to intelligence and leave it at that? Adding concentration just doesn't seem to be the only solution that would work. A scout doesn't have to concentrate to hold a tame. A warlock doesn't have to concentrate on their elemental.

The way it was before was completely [REDACTED], and the fix was completely [REDACTED] as well. Necros went from being 1 person HQ raiding armies, to being completely worthless.

Cut the concentration in half. Limit the number that they can control (varies by number with max number at Master).

This does two things, first it allows the necro do other things then just doing, "o all bash". It beefs them up, but not overly so.

It was at one point, but was put back in because it was a boneheaded change.

Hm I could have sworn you used to be able to take animates through no magic rooms, ah well.
