There isn't timer visible on greater undead, so you don't know how soon you can cast spell again. As a result, wasting 200 mana just to see message "You lack the power blah blah".
Please fix that bug.

For the last time. This bug only appears as a lowbie. You as an IMM WON'T SEE IT! Because you have surpassed the moment that it takes effect. I'm tired of putting this in here as well. The same thing happens with lesser undead. Eventually as you level up, you start to see the messages.

How's about "for the first time", you've never said that before in any of the other threads.

I actually found the problem, and you're wrong. It can happen with any necro, regardless of level. I actually repro'd it with my level 60 character. FNCR.
