Since mid-2015 there has been a considerable amount of development with Hot Summer Nights 2015, the Elemental Lore Review, and the Teleportation review.

Pages with this banner have been affected by development and are in various stages of update progress, but not yet complete.

Maximum Animatable Level, or "MAL," is the term for the highest level of critter which a sorcerer is able to animate using the Animate Dead (730) spell.

Necromancy and MAL

MAL is used to determine the highest level of creature a sorcerer can animate. Previously, the quality of crimson salts used when casting Animate Dead had the ability to boost a sorcerer's MAL, but this is no longer the case. The following formula is used to determine a sorcerer's MAL (note: a player's MAL is capped at their level + 15):

  • (700s ranks, capped at level) - 10 + (700s ranks over level / 10, max of 5) + (WIS Bonus / 5) + (Necromancy Lore Ranks / 10)= MAL
