Lichform should give -die_at per level instead of +4 life

#1 Post by Mr Frog »

Lichform's +4 to life rating currently synergises rather poorly with 1.7 Necromancer's various negative life gimmicks by making it more difficult to enter and stay at negative life. Granting the player -4 base die_at per level gained as a lich instead (rescaled in a similar manner to life rating) would directly reverse this by increasing the proportion of the player's lifebar which is negative. It'd also just generally be cool.

I agree, this would be a better fit for the class.

Yeah I suggested it back then at beta too in my bugreport.

Maybe even make it that after taking Lich prodidgy your base HP are divided - you get 50% of your previous hp, and second 50% you get as negative hp.
