The Flambeau is only available to the nations with fire 3, and you still need to put it on something that can hit her through a defense of more than 20 and multiple mirror images, while not dying to the soul vortex and breath of winter or her own attacks. True. Only Fire 3, which is a pain to get if you don't have it, since most of the easy addition items occur at Fire 3... except for the Skull of Fire... and other pretty specialized items (Ring of Wizardry, Staff of Elemental Mastery) which require Con 6 and have high reqs.
But the point about hitting through high defense and mirror images? I'm not sure I get that... obviously, you'd be sending in SC's to do this job... armed with a weapon that is magic, AP, and x3 damage... so the etherealness and armor go out the window... so she's got itty bitty hp that you can divide by 1/3...
Hey, I don't know... I have yet to encounter the "uber vampire queen" in an MP game... I've only used her myself to abuse the AI in SP games...
But frankly I'd like my chances if I had a pretender Void Lord equiped with a Flambeu...
