I´d say risking an AT to spam horror marks seems a bit of a waste, considering what other things they can do. A theurgh with a skullcap does it just as well.

Big guys attacking you will be horror marked to your desire anyway so it is only worthwhile against those who are unlikely to come your way. This narrows it down to uber-mages of different kinds and pretenders. Pretty niche.

Never really tried the tactic so I´m just speculating.

BTW I like teleporting in a communion against the cold races spamming living water followed by battlefield spells. Mistformed ice elementals backed by astral fires, soul slay, paralyze, thunderstrike, falling frost, etc, etc. Against warmer races combine with multiple wolwen winters and reverse communion spamming numbness and stuff like that.
