Default Re: Looking for help with SC pretenders

Have other people found that quickness, BoW, or fire shield, really make a big difference? I haven't been seeing it but I know there are plenty of folks with more experience than I have.
I pretty well always build in quickness for an early indie clearer. I start with quickness, ironskin, mistform, mirror image. All the others you listed (+ a few others like Soul Vortex) can help later, against other players, but for non flying indies, that usually does the trick with pretty much any pretender.

A Prince of Death could probably do something similar, although I haven't tried it.
The PoD is great for routing indies with fear. The only thing I run into with him is that if I don't give him the aforementioned spells, I occasionally lose him to some group that got lucky with their morale roles. I still use him but only when I really want the death magic anyway (as it should be). He is also one of my favorite choices for Miasma Ctis.
