Default Re: Thoughts on EA Abyssia

To chrispedersen :

The only pretender with base astral for EA abyssia are :
- sphinx (3),
- solar disc (2),
- great sage and great enchanteress (1)

I also need you to explain a bit more about abysia not being affected by death scales ?

On ths subject of astral magic, the +4 to MR is pretty good since most of your mages can be blessed actually, but it works only in battle unless you equip them all the time with a shroud of the battle saint. That equipment costs as much as the amulet of antimagic, so in my opinion it's good (different spot so they add up) but not worth 100 extra points (with the sphinx : 120 points to 8, 224 to 10).

Twist fate is quite good too even for 50 extra points since it protects you from spells like flying arrow (again, with the shroud).
