Woot! Arryn, nice to see you're still around - happy new year, and thanks! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: CB 5.2 released
 

I just checked 5.2 and it doesn't seem like anything is done for Wights. They are good but nobody uses them. I guess because death gems have so many other (better) users. I was wondering about lowering the cost a gem or two per wight to make them slightly more attractive.

Re: CB 5.2 released
 

I really like Lictors, or Wights, or whatever they are... heavy armor, high strength, cold radiance... it's much easier on the gem economy to produce Longdead Horsemen, though... more bang for your buck when you have a high-path pretender or kitted Thaummaturg. I still reanimate them when I get the chance.

Re: CB 5.2 released
 

lictors are the ones that can be reanimated, wights are the etheral ones iirc

Re: CB 5.2 released
 

Wights are not etheral. Both Lictors and Wights are heavy armor, high strength, cold radiance. Wights have bane blades and better prot (22 vs 16). Lictors have battle axes and are summoned from AE. Wights are avaliable to anyone. But no one summons them... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif

Re: CB 5.2 released
 

cudve sworn wights were etheral, and i think no-one summons them due to things like banelords being around

Re: CB 5.2 released
 

Wight Lords are different from the plain Wights. There are non-commander Banes as well, IIRC.

Re: CB 5.2 released
 

Wight lords? Non-commander banes? The wee Banes are commanders as well, and it's kinda silly that the physically simiar Wights only cost 3 gems less than full-fledged Banes. I once make an army of banes and wights, because I obviously had nothing better to do with my death gems and onyx amazons. They did pretty well vs indies, though I did take too many eventual losses to make them worth it compared to a good ol' Bane Lord. I just wish the Wights didn't cost so much, or were easier to summon (give the revenants something to do!)

http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/redface.gif I just realized, Wraith Lords are ethereal... but they aren't Wights.

I haven't actually summoned Banes in a long time. I had forgotten they were commanders as well.
