    Default Reanimate

    Not sure if theres a spell for it in pnp never played the Ebberon series of DND. Now we have repair (light, mod, serious, critical) and reconstruct. But still no sort of raising spell for warforged. I was wondering if this could be done especially when we run sans healer. My wizard's umd isnt that great for raising all the time and it costs me more to do that then it would to have the spell that actually raises warforge instead of just repairing them.

    And before you ask I dont play a construct I just heal them and try to do it well

    In PnP, this sort of thing would probably fall under an Artificer's domain, but I could be wrong about that.

    Warforged are living constructs, and a living construct is a created being given sentience and free wll through powerful and complex enchantments. Warforged are living constructs that combine aspects of both constructs and living creatures.

    Here in DDO, that's definitely sounding like arcane caster territory, rather than divine casters. It sounds like an interesting idea, however, would this sort of spell spur a rapid increase in Stormreach's Warforged population?

    I can't recall exactly, but weren't all but two or three of the Creation Altars destroyed after the last war? Except for that one the Lord of Blades still has in Mournlands.

    Still, I find the idea intriguing for some reason.

    So do I and I guess its the writer in me that would love to see Artificers in game. I play Kalari as a WF friendly wizard simply because it interest me to see what I can do healing them. Id love to be able to work more with constructs thinking of making a rogue to do more as well.

    Friend of mine brought up the soul issue but their souls are contained in a stone like ours are. Instead of resurrecting flesh as the divine spell does. I was thinking reanimate would rebuild their bodies. When I first got the spell reconstruct on Kalari I thought thats what id did till I found out it was the equivalent of a heal spell + a little haste boost. I wasnt happy about that till I turned it around and started using it to test if my repair/force focus was worth it.

    I dunno if it would make a jump but since I know a lot of warforge and plenty players who have at least one (I think I may even have a level 1 wizzie on one of the servers) I just figure it would be an interesting spell to look into. Till then I'll just umd raise scrolls best I can.

    *Edit* I also thought of the animation for it instead of the feathery looking thing we get for raise, resurrection, it would be kinda like an large hammer hitting an anvil or something along those lines. (Yes baldur's gate reference there)

    I like this idea a lot. I play in a dedicated all WF group. Our Sorcerer is our healer, but they cannot cast any form of raise dead. And there are no mass repair spells. It's a little frustrating sometimes, but it's still fun.

    Mass repair should be coming out mod 9 which I cannot wait to test out. But just as you pointed out Kadran there are times when we run without a cleric and try as I might I think I can get Kalari with items up to a 45 maybe 50 percent chance to umd items. Most of the time I have to use res cakes and the like since its easier. But Id gladly carry the spell if it was made on any of my arcanes. I think it would help clerics out as well.
