Could you elaborate on the mechanics of that KO?

I remember that someone did some tests, and it appears that 1 level of Death magic reduces old age affliction chance by about -30% . At Death3, the chance of Death affliction is very low. More levels decrease it further, but the mage might still get an old age affliction.

I cant remember the actual numbers, but IIRC there is a 30% or 40% reduction in the chance of getting a disease from old age.

Necromancers get all kinds of limps and afflictions, you know, but they never die

That means death path only affects disease chance?

But a feeble minded necromancer is worse than a dead one... I mean.

Feebleminded is rather rare IIRC

At the end of year four in an LA Agartha game of mine, I had 2 mute Necromancers (base F1E2D2, with 1 FSED random) out of about 60 (old age around 15 years over the threshold for most of the mages). No diseased mages, and no feebleminded ones either. Growth-1 scales.

In that case, there's an obvious solution.
