I'd always found that a little odd.Ghoul Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15165232279081041131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3656428975201272042.post-42744034792005256642022-05-18T12:54:02.265-07:002022-05-18T12:54:02.265-07:00Meditation 3 gives +100%, not +90%.
Healer is jus...Meditation 3 gives +100%, not +90%.<br /><br />Healer is just a multiplier for the most of it's spells. It works differently only with Bless (which was added to the list in a patch) - Healer 1 adds +1 to duration. Later ranks do nothing.<br /><br />As for why Chaos Magic is "advanced": <br />1) it's a "pure mage" school (as opposed to other schools that can be utilized as support to your army) and thus require more of dedication to Magic skill tree.<br />2) thematically, it contains some very questionable/dark/evil magic - and thus should not be as easily accessible as other schools. <br /><br />As you noticed, it stopped being "advanced" only in Dark Side, where our heroes are dark creatures themselves.<br /><br />Btw it's propably not canon now, but at one point Magic schools had in-universe backstory: Order is divine magic taught by gods and assotiated with priests and paladins, Distortion is the default arcane magic that is thought in, well, magic schools (sorry for tautology) and Chaos was created by demons, necromancers and the like. Because of this it's distrusted by a lot of people but is not generally forbidden. Like I said, it's nowhere in the actual games but maybe it'll clear out something for you. Also, in universe default battle magic element was supposed to be lightning instead of fire.<br /><br />My old fully patched disk version have no bugs with Necromancy, so it indeed maybe a GOG problem. Btw in release version it always ressurected atleast 1 unit. It was pretty good in right circumstances.Quaranyrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13563621496147736585noreply@blogger.com
