Have you ever wondered why the Necromantic Path of Bones is hot garbage?
I can tell you why in one very succint answer, Every level of the Path is nearly useless without a lot of foresight.
But Sullo, you say, I was on a server and one of the Gio's made like 100 zombies and flooded all of it. We all died.
But consider this. The true purpose of Bones is in the very first level of the Path.
Each of the Brooms can only be used for a single command.
Let's review the commands that can be given from an OOG perspective.
From the DAV: “Sweep this room every day until the dust and cobwebs are gone” or “Hold this door shut indefinitely” are suitable commands;
So a small amount of capacity of thought does seem to be allowed, see words like "Every Day" and "Until Gone."
With all of that said let's discuss the concept of the Zombie Spa. Is it the optimal capacity for the Path. Fuck yes it is, that or an Avengers style putting on Armor scene.
We have to start with a room and some places to stop at. Each stop triggers the Zombie to act.
Broom 1: "Aid anyone who steps inside the room with undressing and place their folded clothes on this bench." - Now you're naked
Broom 2: "Wash the body of anyone who gets in the bath with soap and brushes until they get out of the bath." - Now you're clean
Broom 3: "Using dry towels from the bench, dry anyone who stands in front of you until dry, or they step away." - Now you're dry
Broom 4: "Apply fragrant herbs to the chest, armpits and forearms of any one who stands in front of you." - Now you smell good.
Broom 5: "Using gentle strokes, clean hand and toe nails of any one sitting in this chair." - Now you got a mani - pedi
Are there more options? Of course, you could have a hair washing Zombie, a Hair braiding Zombie and Happy Ending Zombie but that is all semantics.
Does the Zombie Spa make Path of Bones suck less. Yes, yes it does.
