Default Re: Help me choose a pretender for EA Helhiem...

Yes, the N4 is mainly useful for the affliction resistance. You take hardly any fatalities, but if you've ever been playing helheim with a F9W9 bless, select the unit and click "w".... you often have a lot of injuries even with no deaths at all.

Also, the regeneration is not useless, especially against archery. Regenerating even 1hp/turn appreciably reduces casualties against arrows. You're not nearly as invulnerable as you were pre-patch.

I think S9 would almost certainly be better than A9. It's also easier to get. I did a W9S9 imprisoned oracle as helheim once, was quite effective.
