Re: Great Boar of Carnutes autosummoning
7 Gems for an un-routable, sacred trampler with relatively high MR, who also has commander status.
Compare to behemoths (who are pretty good and sometimes worth it, given the right situation) at 6 gems and its not a terrible deal. True, boars are size 5 rather than 6 so a little less efficient at trampling.
But the boars have the added benefit of fortune teller and a dom summon that, while not that great, still gives you pretty good sacred troops that you would otherwise have to pay about 1 gem apiece for. So you can summon them early, not feel bad about them sitting around, and break them out when the situation calls for it.
And since boar warriors are now recruit everywhere you might even have a bless that works well with them. An E9NX bless is actually pretty great for everyone. Boar warriors, druid radiers, and the boars all love the reinvig, extra protection, and splash of regen.
Put a bracer of protection and an anti magic amulet (or elemental ring depending on what you're facing) on the boars and watch them go to town. They're like miniature versions of the great white bull.
