prec 18 isn't that a bit high? I also think his age should be much higher.. most pretenders have already mastered death and a necromancer will certainly have done that. So a high age would fit better.

His price might be a lil low for a gemproducer.

Nice idea, though I don't see much use for him.. for a death bless usually a pretender with D3 will be better and there already are a lot of options for going rainbow. Kinda strange someone like him isn't already in the game though.

Well, he is basically a necromancer-twist on the arch-druid, which is 35 cost, and produces gems. I didnt think it was exaggerated. One gem isn´t too much in the grand scheme of things, I think.

As for precision, I never checked. TBH, I put him together a while ago, but never tried him very much, as the sprite I had devised (and am still to post here) wasnt too satisfying. I will compare to other simmilar-price-range pretenders.

here´s the (new) sprite. It´s a modified Agarthan necromancer. Far prettier than the one I had used in the first place

BTW: I agree about precision. It should be l4

I'm not 100% sure but don't all pretenders have morale 18?

Any thoughts on the sprite, btw? I was pondering whether adding a crown, or a tiara...
