Re: Is Cyclops worth it as a pretender god?

Well, he's still the cheapest way to get Earth 9 and get all those blessed bonuses - +4 reinvig is great for holy commanders especially holy spellcasters (pythium, Abysia, Vanheim, etc), and the +4...

Re: Two questions

1) There are a bunch of sites that cause disease in Dom1, but IIRC the disease causing ones are all death or level 0. This might have changed in Dom2. These diseases were not announced so it was...

Re: Machaka and the Hunter Spiders - web effect?

The strength to determine how fast to get out of the web/net/etc makes sense, and seems to be working.

I set up another battle - just a Hunter Lord versus a lone NG, and this time paid very close...

Machaka and the Hunter Spiders - web effect?

The Hunter Spiders are pretty cool - the rider has 13 HP with 22 prot (from memory - may be a little off), but the spiders themselves have 55 HP and 15 prot so they can Last a big battle or a couple...

Re: Other effects of Luck Domain

I gotta agree with AP on this one - some of the sites have effects on scales and such that show up before they are identified, so the specials are there before they were found.

But of course maybe...

Re: Poll: How much will the new bless effects affect your pretender design?

I'm glad this thread is still active - it's been fun!

Seems like the blessings are starting to be appreciated, and maybe only some tweaking should be done. Niefel is pretty nasty as long as you...

Re: Niefelheim, bless and the outrageous

The Life after death is not very good for normal troops - you just get soulless which aren't very useful.

But that is a big perk on mages - Pythium Arch Theurgs cost 380 to make, and one arrow and...

Re: Niefelheim, bless and the outrageous

The 9 Nature 9 Earth is nice for Niefel Jotun, but probably too costly. If you stop at Earth 4, you save a lot of points so you can have an economy but still get the important regen/beserk combo (and...

The Shroud no longer works on Pretenders! Used to in Dom1 - maybe the description should note that?

The shroud would still be great for some supercombatants though, especially for Ice Devils....

Re: Poll: How much will the new bless effects affect your pretender design?

After more play and reading JO's thoughts on lowering the cost, I am starting to wonder about what that would do. The prices do seem out of whack in the demo and don't seem worth it, even if it is...

Re: Poll: How much will the new bless effects affect your pretender design?

I think they (update:they = the bless bonuses) are too expensive, but can be a lot of fun for single player.

Maybe in special cases they could be worthwhile - Jotun's Niefelhem special and Nature...
