    Sounds cool from gameplay perspective. For some reason though I don't really see the bones theme fit in FFXIV. I can see undead creatures like those zombie-like mobs in this game but when it comes to bones and skeletons and such, maybe I'm just not used to it in this art style. I think we'd just see void magic of sorts instead of bones for necromancers.

    /shrug Already bones and skeletons in the game. Don't see why not?

    I'm personally big into skeletons, zombies less so. Personal preference really.

    As for the actual attacks, kind of whatever there. Could be void magic instead of bone. I just wanted to add in flare for when your minions die, you still utilize their bodies. I would prefer if you could use corpse explosion, corpse lance, etc. But I don't see that working well in this game.

    Appreciate the feedback though.

    That's a no go in China. It's a common form of censorship, because showing skeletons goes against their ancestral culture. They have their own client, and I'm sure that bone enemies have been replaced or modified. Also, it's a massive affront to the lore. Necromancy is punishable by death in every single form of government in game. Especially Ul'dah.

    Cool concept but this isn't the universe for it unless its an antagonist.

    I mean, skeletons are in the game currently as you realize. Just replace any Necromancy minions with zombies, or whatever is normal for China. Wouldn't be the first case of this happening. Nor would it be difficult.

    Also, in the thaumaturge questline they talk about using Necromancy in Ul'dah, and its the cowardly brothers, can't be THAT bad. Also things can change, as it happens so often. When things get desperate enough, the enemy of your enemy is your friend no matter who it is.
