Agreed Victor, I hope necromancers in BG3 are given enough attention and I'd love to know what the devs think. The old progression you described is awesome. And thanks, Vometia.
Yep. 5e necromancers are very lackluster. If Larian is thinking on improving monks(which was regular on 3e and awful on 5e) and rangers, why not make the less powerful wizard specialization useful?
Or even better, picking the "dread necromancer" class from 3.5e and porting it into 5e

should come as a DLC.
It Gets even better if you have bag of holdings shove some skelly boys in them in load em like expensive grenades and watch that bandit groups horror as you proceed to dump out groups of skeletons apon them
Still only skeletons and zombies.
I wanna have skeletons, zombies, ghosts, ghouls, shadows, shadow mastiefs, nightwalkers, gorgeous vampire brides, etc; raised and under my command.
