Default Re: use of bane lords

OK, here was my use for a bane lord.

Equipped with:
Woundflame
Lead Shield
Ivy King crown
Sandals of the Crane
Luck amulet
amulet of resilience or barkskin

Champion's Skull while waiting to buff up attack, etc.
Watched one battle go on insanely long while an enemy army of 600+ tried to chase my bane around the battlefield while the Plague slowly whittled them down to nothing.

Also tried giving a bane a robe of shadows or bone armor, but the bane's natural armor gives prot 20, so it almost seemed to be worse than no armor.

Downside: it seems pretty hard for Woundflame to actually start the plague process.
