Horror Marking

Jazzepi · #1 August 4th, 2007, 09:37 PM

Does anyone know the levels of horror marking and their corresponding severity? I just horror marked someone's God 18 times via the spell, and I'm just curious if that's going to bring on Doom horrors or not ;P

I can share that I horror marked EA Abysia's pretender dragon in perpetuality about 20 times in one battle, and about 5 or so turns later, he was gone.

Ouch. Would love to hear from the other player on this one.

My god in Sophistry has had 4 horror marks for about 10 turns now without any horrors showing up.

I can safely say that I have had forty-odd mages horror marked by lightness lanterns, and over a 100 turn game, not one was attacked. Horror marks from items don't seem that bad really, though the artifacts do seem to attract lesser horrors. Usually not a problem for people carrying artifacts though.

The light item-horror marks could still be bad if you're a blood nation, 'cause then you couldn't safely summon horrors in battle (though I have no idea how common battle-summoned horrors are anyway) with those mages.

It was quite awhile ago so my memory is fuzzy, but I horror marked a Risen Oracle who was high in the Hall of Fame about five times. About half a year to a year later Umor showed up. The pretender didn't make it past the first round of attacks.

If your pretender can cast banefire, he need fear no horrors.
I had a pretender kill a horror with 1 cast of banefire before.

Indeed?

Right up until that dude with the +7 blood vengeance appears and shoves the bane fire right back up your poop shoot.

The only thing I've found to be consistently effective against doom horrors is banish to inferno/cocytos.
