man an army of communicants with pheonix pyre could be qute devistating

everytime they die, they blow up... then pop back up
Even with Elemental Fortitude, a single casting of Wrathful Skies, Firestorm or whatever would fatigue them all to death within a few rounds. Then again, its not that hard to give a communion full-spectrum elemental resistance, meaning the only battlefield-area direct-damage spells they'd have to worry about would be Bone Grinding, Astral Tempest, Soul Drain and... is Earthquake armor-negating? I know Rain of Stones isn't, so that's not a threat. Neither are arrows, what with Air Shield.

Hmm. This is actually beginning to look like a semi-decent higher-end Pythium strategy, so long as you've got support from Relief casters, plus either a morale boost or a berserk communion. Still, I doubt it'd be very cost-effective. Not like SC and mini-SC communion slaves, at any rate.
