Lighting Orb ... wowzie
So I was playing around at the end of this game and cast wish and got a doom horror. Being a good message board junkie I think equipped it with the required stuff (ring of regen, some MR) and sent it out to go on a killing spree.
Imagine my shock when it runs into a pretender and DIES. I was flabbergasted. How, exactly, could my uber, super, unparalleled killing machine be killed by a pretender? An arch mage pretender no less. I was almost insulted.
So I watched the replay. The battle was over before it was started. The pretender ( stupidly ) buffs himself with some meaningless buff. The horror eats some unit near the pretender, everything is going according to plan I think to myself. Then the pretender ( which is now pretty close to the horror, maybe a range of 8 or so ) launches about 7 or 8 orb lightings, and poof my beautiful horror dies. I was horrified.
I quickly checked my spell listings to see how such a horrible thing could happen. And there it was "Orb lighting number of effects 1+, damage 10 armor negating" hey where is the MR check? EEEEK there isn't one!
Holy bejesus! Note to self: equip horror with lighting resistance ring next time!
