Message: <blockquote data-quote="NEXxREX" data-source="post: 5707063" data-attributes="member: 6681393">I'm not familiar with the death master base class, and id love to read it. so depending on how kick-ass it is (i honestly dont know) wouldn't he want to go dread necromancer for creating an undead army? Everything you've said is true, but you forgot about desecration which gives +2 hp/HD (if the desecrated area has a shrine) and allows you to raise 4 HD/lv in stead of 2 HD/lv per cast of animate dead.but the main reason dread necromancer is awesome is undead mastery, for the pure and simple point that it allows you to increase the undead you can control with animate dead and control undead. animate dead is usually 4 HD/lv undead mastery increases this to 4+Cha HD/lv which if you max it out (by lv 8) it would be 9 HD/lv without any item bonus'es effectively making your "army" an unstopable legion. and adds Cha bonus to control undead as well, and maxed out Cha would turn it from 2 HD/lv to 7 HD/lv. and in addition to this youll get +4 Str(this bonus does not stack with corpsecrafter unfortunately, unless your dm rules it does), +4 Dex, and another +2 Hp/HD and dread necro has access to rebuke undead further increasing the amount of HD of undead at your disposal. and the charnel touch attack AT WILL which you can heal your undead army with and with the tomb-tainted soul feat you can also heal yourself.so with 8 lvs of dread necro, and use desecrate - you could have - +4 Dex- +2 hp/HD- +2 hp/HD (for desecrate)and easily control 2x as much undead per level. with Animate and Control Undead.making your legion tougher, bigger and harder to hit.plus heal them to full at the end of each battle for free.</blockquote>
