Message: <blockquote data-quote="Li Shenron" data-source="post: 3694938" data-attributes="member: 1465">In our last five years of gaming, Raise Dead was used only once. And we even got it cast for free by an NPC Cleric, mostly because the DM had setup the final encounter of an adventure too difficult for the current party and wanted to make up for his own mistakes (the character was even killed by a special death attack that the DM incorrectly adjudicated in the mid of the battle).Every other time a PC had died, the players always replaced it with a new one.So I can tell that for our group removing Raise Dead would have only a minor effect. Hence I keep it in the game, exactly because it doesn't change much. I keep it so that if I have a player that is sensitive about her PC's death (I had at least one, that was very sensitive about it), the option is always there.As long as it happens occasionally it's not bad. But I agree that if each character gets resurrected more than once in their lifetime, it certainly sucks.</blockquote>
