[QUOTE="Pax, post: 476327, member: 6875"] Only 3E wizard I've ever played was a Necromancer specialist -- well, Necromancer(7)/Loremaster(8) when he was retired. :cool: Opposition school was Enchantment/Charm ... why control 'em while they are alive, instead of killing them and controlling them AFTER they're dead? I also "near-specialised" in Wall spells. If it was a Wall Of _____ spell, my NecroLoremaster knew it, and probably had at least one prepared. :D Drove my GM batty; he typically had NO real terrain issues in combat, then when my turn came up ... *poof* instant terrain (Wall of Stone was one of my favorite spells, heh!). Unfortunately, I later discovered that Wizard necromancers got the shaft, in a way ... they can animate nothing above zombies and skeletons, AND, they only get Animate Dead as a FIFTH level spell, while clerics get it as a third level spell, AND get the better undead-making spells (WTF?). feh.
