Trolls Blood

[zhelas]

Hi,

I am sitting currently with 52 ranks of Necromancy. From attending the Sorcerer's workshop and reading the lecture that Querthose did one should use trolls blood equivilant to ones ranks for best duration with our animates.

Looking over the trolls that are available, and using the Cartographer Tsoran as a guide

Troll Kings are 63
Stone Trolls are 55 (How much of a duration penalty would I be looking at?)
.
Are there any between here?
.
Troll Chieftains and Hunter Trolls are 30 ish
Ice Trolls are 29

Thanks for for your help.

Your best bet is to use stone trolls. Don't worry about the 3 rank difference, it's not that significant. Your MAL *should* be -4, but my MAL calculations are only 100% accurate for high level sorcerers, and I don't know what your level is.

The guide, if you want more info, is on krakiipedia.org. Just look up Animate Dead, and there should be a link there.

Perfect and thanks for the link. The information there is just what I was looking for.
