IMO, the Undead Lord sucks because he has just about no offense - spells which are easy to resist - and crappy AB. Truestrike doesn't last very long. Buffs which don't last very long (all because of low casterlevel). Only major strengths would be his summons and highish AC...
That is why people usually don't go for so many PM levels. _________________ .:\_/:. Only those who have known darkness in (OvO) their hearts will see the shadows in life... (|__|) ..".."..

Even a build with low AC's would give this guy serious pain. How to hit. A build with medium AC and a little SR would just need to hit harder or more often, perhaps Debuff it. With 6 caster levels it's not tough to dispel even with a scroll. I have fought a few PM heavy builds in PvP in my time, and Don't think high AC alone is enough to save your hide. What other pro's does this build have than high AC?
Well it does get epic warding and could take greater ruin instead of devestating critical. Which may be a good idea in general because low AB equals low chance of landing a critical hit.
But indeed, a very PM heavy build tends to be a one trick pony. _________________ Experience is the mother of good judgement; bad judgement is the father of experience.
