Removing Material Components


Advice

Silver Crusade

So, I want to build a necromancer! My problem is with the high costs of spells like Animate Dead and Masterwork Transformation. Any way to remove them? I know of Eschew Materials and False Focus.

This is for Society play.


Words of Power have an Animate Dead variant with no material cost. Noooo idea if you can run WoP in Society though.

Blood Money is a thing.

There's some Mythic stuff too, but that's kind of outside the scope of the discussion.


Eschew materials doesn't work for material components that cost more than 1 GP. What you're looking for is Blood Money, a spell from Rise of the Runelords. I'm not a Society player, so I'm not sure about its legality.

Words of Power is forbidden

Blood Money works and is perfect for what I am looking for! Anyway for a divine caster to get the spell?


No, there is no way to avoid all material components. You will have to pay for your undead. There might be a way for a divine caster to get it.

Paladins can get it, but they can't cast animate dead.

You should be able to multiclass and get the spell or use a wand of it. The spell(blood money) does not say it is only limited to working on arcane spells.

My plan is to finally decide how I'll be creating my necromancer (Bone Oracle or Twilight Sage Arcanist) and using a wand. Advice on a necromancer?
