It's BOTH a morale and a magic resistance check AFAIK. Also, the succubus can only seduce male commanders that are of the correct size (Jotun are out).

Re: A crapload of questions
 

Yea, would be a little strange for a joton to be seduced by a succubus (also would leave you wondering what he had planned...)

Re: A crapload of questions
 

I wonder if it would be possible to create a male commander with #seduce who chould seduce female commanders... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

That would require our game to have a unit that has the same name as a very crappy band.

Re: A crapload of questions
 

If your dominion holds sway, morale is reduced by one. If your dominion is a magic dominon, magic resistance is reduced. But the chances to seduce are still really crappy.

So much so that it has been reported as a bug, and I think I agree.

At the other end of the scale, I've had a succubus seduce a Markata. :p I'm sure she must have been disappointed.

Of course, being the twisted bastard that I am, and this being an SP game as usual, I equipped the smitten pervert with a Black Heart and a Knife of the Damned, and sent him to prove his loyalty or die trying (he did the latter, unsurprisingly).

I know in Dom 2, I did have succubi seduce lizard shamans. Kinky. And success rates are fairly low; to give them some survivability while staying in-theme, I'd suggest whips and Tartarian Chains, or Heart-finder swords. A Wraith Crown is expensive, difficult and not thematic, but helps tremendously.

Hellbind Heart is a normal MR spell, if memory serves. Use a strong Blood mage, use penetration-boosting items (ex. Rune Smasher, Spell Focus, RoWizardry, RoSorcery, Green Eye, maybe others) to maximize chances. Feebleminding enemy drops his MR something like 4, but also makes him less useful once Hellbound unless you can heal that.

Defenders with Blood magic will be at an advantage, but they may be less common than defenders with Astral magic (ex. Enslave Mind) or Nature (Charm).

Re: A crapload of questions
 

For the succubus, I read once about dom2 that the cat's charm was supposed to increase the chance (and the bear's talisman to reduce it), but it might have been just a rumour.

Anyone has more info about it ? (and if it applies to dom 3)

LOL, too funny. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Pity Dominions doesn't have any leather armor. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif
