Description

This mod introduces Necromancy to the game in a balanced manner. Using the new Convoking Wand you can summon up to 8 skeleton thralls. You can also convocate (teleport minions to you), execute, and heal your thralls in combat. Most of these abilities cost health as opposed to stamina. Since a summoner would normally stay safe behind their minions, it makes sense to take away some health as sacrifice to punish players who are trying to use the wand and fight with melee at the same time. This wand cannot attack, but it's decent at parrying. Aside from this, the wand is simply a tool for controlling your minions and keeping them alive. You can also sacrifice a minion to heal other nearby minions.

Features

[]Swap between warrior skeletons and bow skeletons on the fly (no mage skeletons sorry)

[]Diverse minion compositions are more advantageous than using only archers or only warriors

[]Can customize the health of minions in config menu so that you can balance them (or unbalance them) at your leisure if you believe they are too strong or too weak

[]Can increase the speed of skeletons if you want skeletons that move at lightning speed like Path of Exile or Diablo 2

[]Skeletons keep up with the player's pace

[]Skeletons follow players through teleporters

[]Convocating your skeletons makes them follow you, so you don't have to chase down stragglers

[]Custom (kinda) wand model and icon

[]Difficult but balanced recipe components

[]I've worked quite hard to balance the necromancy powers to make it so that you are about as effective as a good player would be with the proper gear

[]Skeletons follow players into instances (burial chambers, crypts, and caves)

[]Skeletons stay on boats with the player and don't fall off

[]Skeletons drop no loot so it can't be exploited

[]Doesn't interfere with tamed creatures like boars and wolves

[*]Skeletons do not attack friendly players or tames[/si
