Animate Ally
 | |
| Name: | Animate Ally |
|---|---|
| School: | Necromancy |
| SLA: | Pale Master (Wiz) t=1 |
| Cost: | None |
| Metamagic: | Quicken, Enlarge |
| Target: | Friend |
| Range: | Unknown SLA range |
| Duration: | Permanent until death |
| Cooldown: | 5 minutes |
Description
Activate to Animate a dead ally, restoring 100% of the target's hit points.
Your ally is considered an undead zombie (gaining the benefits and drawbacks of Shroud of the Zombie) until death reclaims it.
Notes:
- Animate Ally succeeds 100% of the time, and takes effect immediately.
- The animated ally will return with 100% of their HP.
- The animated ally can be healed by Death Aura. (If the ally is a Pale Master he can likely do this himself.) However, after a few minutes a single Death Aura won't be able to keep you alive because of the increasing damage. (Try Negative Energy Burst instead.)
Tips
- This is good during a boss fight, since you come back with full HP
- This is good if you haven't reached a resurrection shrine yet: the animated ally will be able to contribute fighting your way to that shrine
- If you are a Pale Master group, a hireling who has been animated now enjoys healing from your collective death auras
- If the person being animated is a druid or sorcerer and they go into an elemental or animal form the rot damage will stop and they will take regular healing
