NPC Cleric & undead minions - what spells?

[Mottokrosh]

Hi everyone,

I've got an upcoming encounter with an NPC cleric and his Karrnathi skeleton and zombie minions. He's going to have a censer of the last breath (MiC153) for effect.

I'm wondering what spells or cheap items he could employ to make his minions a little harder? It's supposed to be an encounter level 10 roughly, but since the party is quite hard, it would be great to bolster the undead more. Things like hit points, AC, and to hit.

Any suggestions?

Actually, I've turned it into level 10 dread necromancer. That should do the trick.

Standard Necromancer Tricks:

1/ Always create your undead in the area of a desecrate spell (with an evil alter). Thus, your undead will have +2 HP per HD (even if they leave the area). Shweeeeet!

2/ If possible, fight in the area of a desecrate spell.
