I was sitting there with my necro Leoric earlier and I was thinking... Wouldn't a few new types of upgrades be cool? some flavorful changes? some cool little additions that necromancers can use to create more diverse and new undead that also make them look cooler and different?

New Addition Idea's:

-"Infuse With Hellfire": Infuses undead with energies akin to the burning dead
Bonus: +1 Fire damage per upgrade
Visual: Combust visual on the undead

-"Infuse With Hoarfrost": Drawing upon the unnatural chill of undeathly powers you infuse these into the corpse
Bonus: +1 Cold Damage per upgrade
Visual: Glowing Blue Eyes (Or no visual for this one)

-"Infuse With The Nether": Drawing upon the negative energies of the nether, you infuse them so heavily into the undead, even its strikes leave the mark of such energies on their foes.
Bonus: +1 Negative Damage per upgrade
Visual: Glowing Red Eyes (Or no visual for this one)

-"Infest With Plague": Your desires to spread undeath and disease are strong, and you infuse this desire into your new carrier servants.
Bonus: An onhit plague that is fitting for undead to carry.

-"Imbue Hunger": The undead hunger for what they lost... And you intensify that hunger through dark magic, their ravenous hunger is reflected in their tendacy to feed on the foes they slay.
Bonus: Vampiric Regeneration +1 per upgrade
Visual: Bleeding visual

-"Infuse Shadow": Binds the essence of shadow unto your undead, strengthening them...
Bonus: Onhit: Drain Strength 1 Point: DC: 10


Feel free to leave your own ideas! Just some cool ones I thought up myself.

Here's the thing. Many of these type things are quirky and specific to some type of undeads or factors that are intended for specific ones.

Physical enhancement and defensive corruption is more general. If things such as these came to be... At most I'd consider them for pale master if anything, as these are pretty specialized options.

Ahh okay. Yeah reason i suggested some of these was because those specific undead arent accessible to creation by necromancer pcs though that would be awesome so i suggested just more upgrades instead. Perhaps would be easier to suggest that such specific undead corpses be available for animation?

It's already been long thought by DM team, and we'll surely add some more when we got time. It's coming at some point.
