Re: use of bane lords
If you are having trouble with magic switch to:
Frostbrand, lead shield, starshine cap, ring of regen, lucky amulet, boots of quickness. dont really need to mess with the armor slot. The starshine cap and lead shield will boost magic resistance. high protection and luck should protect you against most chaff except lances and Ctiss does not have any of those. Frostbrand does area cold damage which is nice vs the cold blooded lizards.
My ultimate banelord at constuction level 6 regardless of gem cost would be:
Head:Wraith crown (etheral)
Weapon: The blood axe that inflicts chest wounds (also gives beserker +2) 5 blood slave cost.
Shield: Charcoal shield
Body: Hydra skin armor (regeneration)
Boots:Quickness
Misc1: lucky amulet
Misc2: amulet of magic resistance
I like the axe because of the beserker. Hate it when they run away. Let their cold aura and fire shild do the killing. Etherealness, luck, regen and armor for survivability. 1 boost to magic resistance which is normally adequate vs the AI.
