Is it really worth it to be talking to most corpses with Speak With Dead? I've only done it once or twice and didn't get much useful info out of it
Most corpses don't tell you much. Occasionally they'll tell you where something valuable is. Often they're just an alternative route to get information you could get otherwise, but that's true for almost everything in the game. They've built in a ton of options. Occasionally they'll point you to where some magical gear is that you'd otherwise almost certainly miss, which can be nice. Usually it's just a source of advancing quests and getting more information on who someone was.
I am talking to all of them (or at least these which will speak to me). For example, you can get info on where a certain political figure probably is, or a location of some precious thing.
I thought it took a lvl3 spell slot so I basically never cast it. I might have to try it more often
It's ritual cast just like speak with animals. That means that if you use it outside of combat (where it's probably more useful) then it doesn't cost a spellslot
