Would making the 10th level Palemaster summon the same as the Create Greater Undead vampire be OP?

Seems fair that the PM has to invest a feat on it seeing that is doesn't take anything to qualify for the class like it does in PnP.
Only if that mummy is able to move at regular speed.
Otherwise, it's gonna be a royal pain in the ass to use.

Insightful Strike was already pushed down two levels in order to make Gishes give up an extra 2 levels to take it.

So when do we get to take the vamp warlock away? :lol:

Now that I think of it, almost everyone here talks only of empowering this or that or adding this or that. Why don't we start UNDERPOWERING the whole server's classes and feats a bit?

Do not you think it silly that the magician can summon undead stronger than the PM necromancy who devoted his entire life?

Well to be fair, so can PM's if they go for more caster levels. But yes, I do kind of feel it a bit wierd their summon sucks worse then the 8th level counterpart. Many different lenses to look at this issue with.

Not really. Create Greater Undead was 6 secs/lvl exactly for this reason. PM's Greater Vampire was just a bit less powerful, but eternal, which meant every buff investment on it was a good one. This made it much more stable, and in the end much more powerful (thanks to the devs work, the PM has been completely revamped, making it a very good class. Summons included.) than anything else you could ever summon with any character.

So, dont blame the PM summon. Go ahead and ask for reverting CGU to the duration it always had, and should have. Anything else is just persevering with the same mistakes.

probably had in mind the call of undead with the same characteristics but that was visually in the form of the Lich?
