Default Re: how do damage multipliers work?

Okay, Wraith Lord test results in (having a lazy Sunday afternoon here...)

Basically I'd say the WL is much, much better. I did 10 battles with a Herald Lance + Lucky Coin WL. The ID was always defending and so got first hit. The WL won all battles.

The lower hit points made no difference at all I think. In 8 battles, the WL's HP never dropped below 30. In 1, his HPs dropped to 13, in the other , to 20+. However, the reduced strength of the WL compared to the BL was very noticeable. The WL needed to hit the ID noticeably more times to kill it. However, the ID had a hard time hitting the WL, so it was okay.

That was a one on one battle however. I suspect that in a big battle with lots of troops, missile support and multiple SCs, having more hit points would be better.
