Greetings all! As some of you know, I have been working over the past month to bring the Necromancer wiki page up to date, and standardize the information there in a way that is easily accessible, and beneficial for all users.
However, in going through the spells, I have noticed a few issues that I alone cannot figure out. I know how they can be, but I need some help from my fellow necromancers on this.
First big thing is Pet Levels. Many of the pet level pages list a static number of the pet being summoned. We all know this is false, because virtually every necromancer has summoned a pet, it been a light blue, reclaimed it, and recast for a dark blue. This suggests that there is level variance in pets. I need help figuring out what level variance each pet has. So, if you get a chance, find some low level players (around the approximate level of the pet), and ask for their help. Get them to con your pet as you summon a series of them, and figure out the low/high range for the pet, so the information can say "Summon skeletal warrior, level 28-30" for example. I am aware that the pet guide lists a range, but it would be nice to have confirmation on that level range from someone who has tested it. I have found a number of errors as it is.
Second thing is Magic Resistance from Shielding. The Shielding spells provide a good amount of Magic Resistance to the caster. However, the earlier versions of these spells do not report any. I have cast these myself and found an upper range of MR (as cast by a 60 Necromancer), but I do not know the MR amount for a low level Necromancer that just got the spell. So, if you're a low level Necromancer, and you just got a shielding spell, please record your Magic Resistance, cast the Shielding Spell, record your adjusted Magic Resistance, and then figure out the difference between those numbers. I have tried to /who, but being in graduate school has limited my playtime, and I have been unable to find people that are minimum casting level to check for me.
Thanks all, I'll post anything else that I find the wiki to be lacking.
Do you find the wiki lacking in something else, but can't get it done yourself? Please, say so here.
