Why? Because that's the main reason for having that schtick!Then of course particulars will vary wildly. A shaman could have put a ritual on himself transforming his corpse into an avenging Vine Horror Spellfiend, and to truly count as two monsters for that encounter, your mark would have to drop. If the DM's playing up the horror aspect he might rule you win the fight against the shaman and rest only for his corpse to rise (with allies, presumably) - that's a whole new encounter and just as 1 in 3 says that means there isn't much of a problem, as your mark will have recharged by then.What I caution you against is taking the player's view solely. Obviously I understand your irritation, but you need to try to see it from the DM's side. Chances are he did not select that monster specifically to hose your ability, so you need to respect his or her decisions.Trying to steamroll your DM wielding rulebooks will only serve to annoy him or her, and that's a fight you cannot win! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
