Larian Studios Forums Divinity: Original Sin 2 Divinity - Original Sin 2 - Suggestions and Feedback Proper Necromancy

To admit... Corpses don't have blood and people don't die when they run out of blood.

Nor is blood necessarily linked to vitality in anyway shape or form... and thus does feeding or depriving someone of it in anyway linked to death.

No, what is directly linked to corpses is copying all the Diablo 2 powers!

I dunno how exactly 3 abilities that are necromatic but not Diablo 2 powers makes them not necromancy... Actually I know why! Because Dragon Age made their blood magic very directly blood magic.

So we have Diablo 2 basically being what is defining the Necromancy powers... and Dragon Age limiting it.

So keep your pants on, the current skill load out is fine (well... in terms of theme)... And we are going to get more skills in the pipeline. Besides TWO of the 5 are directly linked to Copy-And-Paste Necromancy as it is (Touch of Decay, and Disease) and another is a common necromancy skill (feeding off blood). Leaving only making it rain blood (usually a ill omen or vile portent signifying great disaster or death) and the blood mosquito which is the only odd one in the bunch...
