Banish does 3 + 2 /level, area 2 + 2 / level.

Thus, archtheurgs spamming banish with four commuion slaves do:
holy 5 -> avg 11 pts each, at +2 penetration.

Against an MR 13 unit like a typical rakshasa, 38% under the template get hit each turn. Alternatively, they can smite a single demon for 25 pts.

Against an astral-bless vestal, you only hit 11% of the vestals under the template - and each shadow vestal *still* gets to negate the first hit. That's a lot better than nothing but it's not going to save you.

Now, if you're smart and only use the blackfaces instead of the demons, Pythium is in a lot of trouble. But even those guys you can't recruit 10+/turn like I can with shadow vestals. I still think he would've been screwed.
