Talk:Sprinting Zombie (3.5e Creature)
From D&D Wiki
no con score... so should these be undead? also under : Living Death it mentions undead immune to acid. Are these supposed to be immune to acid or are you trying to say undead are immune to acid (which most aren't)? also dr -4 from blunt isn't right/ dr 4/ piercing or slashing would be how that is written, but undead usually don't have dr/ piercing since that kinda implies they bleed out. maybe dr5/ slashing (like zombies) would work better. also its BAB is higher than its HD which is impossible according to the rules. and its attacks are wrong. attack should be 1 primary attack (1 not 2 claws) and its full attack need numbers. having an int entitles it to feats (1 for its hd) its touch ac should be 12, and it looks like it has a point of natural armor, that should be mentioned in ac break down. its init should be 2. And are these movie inspired? if so which flick? '28 days later' "zombies" are very different from 'dawn of the dead' zombies (28 days later leaves you alive but rabid, Dawn has actual undead zombies). this has great potential, but it needs some work. --Name Violation 05:52, 18 March 2010 (UTC)
Sprinting Zombies[edit]
I like the idea of superfast zombies (i.e. 28 days later, or I am Legend) but there is a flaw in your build. Undead can't sprint.... sorry if i'm sounding like a rules lawyer but you can only sprint for as many rounds as your con modifier, therefore no undead can sprint. Did i read somewhere that ghast can come about from humans eating flesh... therefore not needing to be undead? Could be a possible build idea?

Undead don't need con to run, they nevre get tired, and with few exceptions don't make forditude saves unless the effect works on objects. Also the only undead you can really outrun are zombies who are to slow to keep up before you eventually fail your con check, or things like vampires that are harmed by sunlight and could be avoided or repelled untill dawn.
