Life Infusion: I recommend switching this to a free action, otherwise you wouldn’t get to use it very often (since you can’t use immediate actions on your turn).

Constructive Criticism:

Nearly all paragon paths have an action point feature at level 11. It’d be nice if this one did too.

Features are all okay.

Level 11: No save ends daze on encounter powers! That’s too powerful even for a close burst 2. If you make it until the end of your next turn, up the burst maybe to Close Burst 3, and remove the Miss, it balances out.

Level 12: Seems a wee bit weak, I don’t know. Maybe it’s okay.

Level 20: Requirement clauses are not used for that kind of thing. You would put that in a Special clause if you have to mention it at all. Or even as an un-clause statement.

@ Mad Brew, thanks for stopping by. I’ve had a fascination with Necromancers for some time. Which is odd as I have never played one. I feel they are an interesting class whose benifit and use is more subtle than traditional damamge dealing classes.

@Mad Brew
Thanks for visiting Dungeon’s Master.

In the coming weeks we will offer more of our unique ideas on how to make the traditional classes more interesting and fun to play. If you liked what you’ve read so far on the Necromancer, please come back and visit us in March when we post our version of the Necromancer: Epic Tier.

Pretty cool. I have had a long love/hate relationship with Necromancy. I love the concept, themes, and stories fueled by it but as a player I ever hate the execution of it (never had fun playing a necromancer).

While I am not a big fan of 4e, I think it has definitely started making people think of ways to bring a fresh perspective to old themes. This Necromancer path (and the heroic tier) are fine examples of breathing new life into old bones.
