Default Re: Most powerful spells?

Ah descpription from haunted forest says everyone killed gets a manikin .

Does "undead or lifeless are not affected" in spelldescription mean that i can't spam raise skeletons and they get reanimated as manikins too ?

If the manikins created through haunted forest effect survive the battle do you keep them then or do they dissolve after battle ?

Furthermore spelldescription states that it works only in own dominion .
So i wonder how useful this spell is all in all ?

Swarm costs 1 nature gem but is 100 fatigue so the spell scripting ai should use more then 1 nature gem / swarm .

So you have the effect only in own dominion + either invest a lot of nature gems for swarm or have something like militia getting killed that you benefit from the spell ?

Is this really worth it when you can with zero gemcosts either spam false horrors or skeleton hordes ?

And there is always the dispel problem . Per pearl you only get 0,5 nature gems so normally the dispeller has to invest not as many gems as you have to invest + not to forget the continuing investment of nature gems for swarm + the micro you need to do this .
