Death/Fire Major bless question
 

I am aware that a major fire or death bless replaces the normal secondary effects of a weapon, such as a Fire Brand.

Does anyone have any data regarding melee weapons that have an AoE attack, benefiting from such a bless, when the AoE component is not a secondary effect?

For example, a Snake Bladder Stick or Harvest Blade, which I believe attack an area as their primary attack (unlike a fire brand, which is secondary).

Would outfitting a fire or death blessed commander with snake bladder sticks be an effective strat?

Have I missed something here?

I believe that only certain weapons can get the blessing effects...

Note that mictlan loses the effect when the jaguar warriors change shape...

I remember a listing of the weapons affected was posted a long time ago...

+1 rep for finding the post...

:D

I did some very brief testing. Death bless seems to be more effective with AoE attacks, by virtue of disease and other afflictions. The normal effects of AoE weapons otherwise seemed to remain unchanged.
