IMHO there's not all that much difference between e.g. Prot 26 and Prot 33. Either way you're more likely to die from the same causes: fatigue critical hits (with or without Stellar Cascades), AP weapons (Weapons of Sharpness or crossbows), MR-resisted attacks (Soul Slay, Disintegrate), AP or AN spells (Incinerate), ritual spells (Vengeance of the Dead, Mind Hunt). Doesn't hurt to slap on the Black Steel Plate, but it's probably not worth GoRing him just for that.

Morale 50 units don't automatically die at turn 50, they just have a 50% chance of disintegrating each turn after that. So sometimes you get lucky.

I wonder but have never tested: if you prophetize a Morale 50 unit, does it become Morale 30 (never fails morale check but routs as usual at autorout limit)? My gut says no, both because 50 is a higher number, and because the Colossal Fetish pretender has Morale 50 instead of regular pretender Morale 30.
