Undead Party

[sideways]

I haven't started playing yet but I was looking at the character creator and I saw that you can make a party of all undead. Was wondering if this is feasible and if anyone has tried it?

For singleplayer, you could play up to:

• two undead characters. Create an undead character and recruit Fane which can be found somewhere at your starting island
  
• three to four if you're lucky getting random undead recruits from the mercenary recruitment store

For multiplayer, same as singleplayer, but it's easy to do such when you have friends to play with.

Sure! Protip; poison is what heals undead and potions/food will kill you. stack up on poison. But you might google the ways of getting custom creation for all party members; otherwise it is a "Create your main charater and recruit along the way"

It's perfectly viable. I would make one of them the origin character Fane. With all characters being undead, you don't need to worry about spreading what you use to heal. You can even heal with some of the aoe attacks.

It probably will work just as well as the all lizard playthrough I did a while ago. You just have to be mindful that traditional methods of healing won't work and you'll probably be best off with someone well-versed in Geomancy or dipping everyone into Necromancer so you can have reliable in-combat healing if needed. Find an Ooze barrel and carry it with you so you can make as many poison potions as needed.

Definately viable, id probably go a couple points in necro just to give some sort of easy healing.

Have one as Fane cause Timewarp is pretty strong

When you get the correct items you can race change anytime you want to something else and obtain all the lore/speech options and racials on top of your current undead ones (I change to elf cause Flesh Sacrifice is also pretty good)

Theyll all have Play Dead which is very handy

So if I use another party member and hit myself with a poison arrow or sword, would I gain heath, take damage, or both?

Both. Take damage from physical and gain health from poison.

It's made an even simpler approach if you choose to use two Undead wizards. Provided you have decent enough initiative to start a battle with one of them going first or second, you can set a pre-heal on your wizard's turn by using Contamination or Poison Wave for a decent amount of heal-over-time.

For a heavier amount of healing in a single shot, use Poison Dart. It'll heal a ton of damage and provide a few rounds of hot. Another trick you can use is to carry some Poison element wands with you, but this tends to really be viable when out of combat. Attack the ground to create a small poison puddle and stand in it. If in combat, proper CC and manipulation of your enemies will prevent them from using the puddle against you. Or use the wands to directly attack your fellow undead to apply the healing directly.
