Banefire
 

Is there any protection against banefire, beyond insanely high armor? FR, undead, lifeless, ethereal?

Re: Banefire
 

Test Luck. It should prevent the damage 50% of the time, but not the Decay effect.

Twist fate?

So fire resitance does not effect banefire?

blood vengeance

Mistform. The first hit is reduced to single point of damage, but the mistform is dispelled. Good way to get your chaff in range, not so good if you rely on few thugs.

When fighting LA C'tis, always cast Fog Warriors on first turn.

Anyone know if FR protects vs Banefire Brand's banefire effect? How useful is Banefire Brand vs Flame or Frost - worth the extra cost in any case? Thanks.

Re: Banefire
 

Banefire brand? If you are talking about shadow brand, then the secondary effect is leeching darkness, not banefire and FR doesn't protect. It has AoE 5, so it's better then fire or frost brand.

Heh, thats what I get when I am shopping with the wife and sitting in the waiting room using the iPhone to ask questions about Dominions off the top of my head :)

Thanks Psycho, you were right, I meant the Shadow Brand. Sounds effective.

Re: Banefire
 

MR protects against the leeching darkness from Shadow Brand, right?

Re: Banefire
 

Yes.

This reminds me of somethign I've been meaning to post.

Wouldn't it be cool to add some more banefire effects to the game. The green fire, and it's effect are very creepy and atmospheric.

I'd like to see banefire versions of a few classic spells. Banefire bolt (maybe in the style of nether bolt, with an area of 1) and a some others. The requirements can be high, with death equal to the amount of fire one usually needs, and with higher research requirement.

It would be nice for The King of Banefires to have some trademark mojo to throw around.

For the Decay effect, shouldn't the Boots of Youth help? ^^

Re: Banefire
 

Interesting question. Not tested, afaik.
