Default Gift of Reason and items slots

If you cast Gift of Reason on a unit (say a Tarasque) what item slots, if any, will it have?

Depends on unit.

Tarrasque, for example, has only two misc slots, nothing else. Humanoids usually have at least most of the slots.

You can just download one of the all units maps and look at all of them.

In short only Mind Enslaved enemy SCs + Tartarians + Wished Creatures ( Doom horror , Ettin Mandragora , AQ , Nataraja etc. ) are worth being GoRed .
A Gargoyle might be worth a GoR too .

Never tried it but it looks like a good chasis. 24 *base prot*, 20 str, 70 HP, flying. Sounds pretty good.

The 12 MR looks like a problem though.

Gargoyles are also non-undead, which prevents them from being toasted by Flambeaus and similar that might be a threat to certain other common SC chasses. Consider giving it Armor of Souls or something like that.

They also have better attack than Crushers, and have flight as an advantage over Living Statues.

I've used GoR'd gargoyles in SP, they seemed pretty good. Nice base prot, and the never healing wasn't that big of a hinderance with lifedrain weapon. IIRC they have a somewhat low attack/def (10 each), though. I believe they have full slots as well.
