Corpsecrafter and Create Undead on PC Corpses
« on: October 24, 2017, 12:58:29 AM »
Neither Corpsecrafter nor Destruction Retribution, and presumably, any of the feats following its chain seem to work on undead created by casting Create Undead on a Player corpse. The stat bonuses are not applied, and Destruction Retribution did not fire when the zombified corpse was destroyed.

Recreation is simple, one needs only have the feats and to caste Create Undead on a Players corpse or remains.

While definitely a much rarer circumstance than using the spells to summon normal undead, it does make them just that much less desirable as feats. Otherwise the feats seem to work as normal for summoned undead.

It was a bug; found the cause and will have it fixed.

Should now be fixed if you want to test on a poor victim's corpse.
