Ai marignon just used phoenix pyre to kill 90 imps from hordes from hell. I thought phoenix pyre was pure fire damage but imps have 100% fire resistance. I did not cast (mass) protection to lower fire res. Anyone know what kind of damage phoenix pyre does?
Hum, are you sure you mean "Phoenix Pyre" (the spell allowing the mage to resurrect) and not "Holy Pyre" ?
The latter is a Fire spell but is specifically designed against Demons, "Holy" damage I think, so Imps haven't a chance against it.
It was phoenix pyre. A fire1 marignon mage used a gem to cast it, a bit later he was killed by a pile of imps and went boom thereby killing most of his crossbow friends and my imps. He resurrected and was killed again by the remaining imps and my other troops.
