Deathlocked

i was wondering if there should be a mod so when fighting any necromancer/mage that has a reanimate spell on them if they are near any dead NPC body they should use the spell to ressurect them during battle it would make fights more interesting with a necromancer i could imagine mannimarco doing that too.

Unfortunately, NPCs will totally ignore corpses, and pretty much everything else durring combat, and there is no particularly efficient way of handling this with scripting.

 

Additionally, use of resurrection could be a bit iffy if used by an NPC, or used on leveled spawns.

 

From a gameplay standpoint, if you could do it, it runs into the chance of causing a never-dying group of necromancers, who just keep reviving eachother.

This needs to go in the file requests/suggestions section of the Oblivion forum.

 

This is already in the file request/sugestions section of the Oblivion forum :dry:

It would also be good if you could reanimate any dead creature to fight on your side.

 

 

That can be solved with a spell that resurrects the creature and adds to it a player faction and a follow player A.I. (that includes player protection) and at the end of the spell simply kills the creature (kill command) and that's all ;).

it's a good idea.

It could be done by adding a spell effect of -revive AOE - when the necromancer is using a summon spell.

It would be a good mod if it was the player who could do it.

Does Vanilla Oblivion's Reanimate effect work on Creatures? I thought the only problem here would be getting Necromancers to cast it properly... Or are they supposed to be reanimated forever?

Just stand back and hit them with a massive explosion effect.

 

I.e. Strong ice spell (like with Hrormir's Icestaff), or one of the Bottled Explosions... Or just kill them REALLY QUICKLY.
