Yeah, now we can play as a proper necromancer in oblivion because of the new spell called reanimate. Which ressurests any NPC and ables them to fight for you. SWEET

Thats a cool spell... I really think I'm going to learn that spell as early as I can with my character.. can come in use..

Yep, thats good news for the necromancers out there.

I can forsee myself creating a Necromancers and raising legions of undead, and assualting Daedra and towns with them...

uuuuuuuuu! naughty girl!
it'd b nice to see a dark-elvish girl followed by a legion of undead slaves. think i'm going to get one!
:joinmeindeath:
the question is: will there b any reaction to your using necromancery in town? hope so. else, it would b silly.

I foresee mergirl writing a long and detailed post about her necromancer adventures....

Tee, hee, hee!

But! I will try to keep my expectations low, in case I get disappointed. I would like that the necromancy arts to be more fleshed out and perhaps that the game will have friendly Necromancer NPC's to talk to, 'but I'm not going to hold my breath', as the saying goes.

I would play a necromancer if bethesda did a good job with it. (as we've come to expect)

But, assassin comes first, as always.

I could never do assassin. Too similar, but maybe with the advanced sneaking thing it will be better. And how come your picture sig aint clickable?

Yeah i cant wait to the new sneaking ablitys.

I just hope Oblivion isn't like World of Warcraft, where your class determines what you can and can't learn. :/

Not at all, thats bethesda's strong point, you want to be a heavy armor wearing mage?, do it. A thief that casts healing spells?, be my guest.

It is nice in this game that they are facilitating to Necromancers at last.

Indeed, now I can be a necro-battle-mage.

Personally I'm just going to have fun having my own NEcromancer's lair.

I would love to have a necro but, in my book, theives AlWAYS come first

Well, I'm sure we will have time to try both. And decimate our social lives accodingly.

yes true

Personally I can't get enought of the living dead. And apparently in Oblivion they are making more emphasis on Necromancers, what with the new spells and such but also in the 3 book writers interview from The Imperial Library there will be a book called Exodus entailing the split of Necromancers from the mages guild. That just may hint to a little bit more Necromantic emphasis.

Do you have a link to said interview? I would love to view it.

Here you go it's the interview.

Thank you sir stomache ache.

I just thought mabey a necro guild..... donn't flame me if that was what you were already thinking

Necromancers don't really seem like the type of people that would have a guild.

I agree. Though they could always have a secluded word of mouth guild. You know, kind of like the thieves guild.

that was more of what I was thinking but now that Death meantions it, it would be hard to have quests......

unless they were bring in 10 bodies for the next rank

Well, how about gathering ingredients and straps to bond the undead bones together? (In the Imperial Library, there was a book about the art of necromancy preparation)

It would be kind of like gathering ingredients for the mages in Morrowind. It does not have to be all about getting dead bodies. Except you have to be careful on where you gather your stuff and how you get them.

Ooh, I hope there will be a mod for Necromancer guild, that would be awesome!

lol I was wondering when you would see my post

Indeed, a Necromancers guild would be very dandy.

Necromancy is just one more way to say " I love conjuration" and guess what? I do! I wonder if we can summon more then one at a time though...

yes that was kind of a let down you are a master conjurer and you were only able to make one skeleton or something....

if you had multiple summon items i believe you could summon multiple of something. i had like 8 skeleton amulets and would make like a little task force

Hehe, my Redguard battlemage started out with some easy fire spells and healing spells, now he's surrounded by daedras.

Rathma Botherhood. Obviously you dont read.

what's wrong with not reading?

Is that in any way related to warcraft, 'cause I googled it and most of the stuff mentioned warcraft.

Oh hey, a string of one-liners. Looks like this thread has seen it's best times. *click*
