Either that or Mistform is backup. Between Mistform, Awe, and even half decent prot (as in, 12 or so), you can get surprisingly far. Take a look at what a Harbinger can manage by just casting Mistform, and being under a decent earth-nature bless, while equipped with a frost brand. Add in even Rainbow Armor (which isn't all that great from a protection angle, though the magic resistance is always nice), and you have a borderline SC.

Even minimal Regen helps a lot if you have Mistform up. A normal human will go down pretty quickly even from 1 hp a round, but if he's regening that hp...

Re: When should you forge weapons?

Well, late game most serious armies will have magic weapons. These pop mistform instantly. So remember that.
