Also, the sphinx is absolutely awful. Normally I'd also say the order 0 is a total waste, but given that the scale bug often takes away positive order/growth/prod it is worth considering. If you are betting on this happening, however, you don't want growth either.

?
Looking at the math (for a different race) I found the sphinx to be second only to the fountain in efficiency if you are looking for a S9 X9 imprisoned pretender. And some races don't have the fountain as a choice...

The sacred statue is clearly superior as well. Skimming through the nations, the only one I spot with the sphinx and no statue or oracle is Abysia, which seems more the case of a specific nation getting shafted than a real sphinx 'niche' (aside from the fact s9 doesn't seem like one of the better Aby blesses).

Any Abysia was the one I was looking at  . That explains things. |
