Re: phenix pyre
 

It is a battlefield wide effect that lasts until the end of battle.

So long as there are a large number of non-lifeless beings on the battlefield, the caster will effectively be healed to full with zero fatigue every single turn, requiring him to be killed multiple times during a turn to overload the phoenix pyre effect.

Really? I thought this was pretty clear:

"All units on battlefield get 1AN fatigue damage unless they save MR. This is a battlefield spell. It remains active after casting."

I'm just Joking, I meant to say: Thanks, I fixed it when I read you had problems with the current description.

Re: phenix pyre
 

so what about a reverse communion with the master casting soul drain? Do slaves get the 'buff'?

Rapid fatigue for everyone not part of the communion? Like if you have 60 some-late game theurgs and a spectre as master and the master casting soul drain... does that mean +60 fatigue per turn for everyone who isn't getting fed with a ton of soul drain energy?

Hmmm... wonder if thats a useable strategy...

Re: phenix pyre
 

Soul drain is classed as a battlefield spell, and doesn't work in a communion - which is probably for the best, given balance concerns.
