That's right, Chief. Bifrons is normally W3/S2, BTW. The reincarnated vampire came with S6/W4, including his equipped items....meaning that he had been empowered twice in Astral as well. Pretty sweet.

Or maybe as part of the bug, his stats including items became his base stats when he died.

And why would anyone give an ice devil a water bracelet?

I had a situation like this arise that confused me. I was playing Ermor-Soul Gate and while looking through the heroes that had appeared in my provinces found this one: A long dead horseman (commander) with 4 air, 2 water, 4 astral, 3 nature and 5 holy. Other than those the stats were normal.

Maybe to cut down on spell-casting fatigue?

So on the happy occasions when someone gets one of these buggy units, do they go ahead and use them for all that they're worth, or what?

I considered that possibility, but ruled it out, because his water magic didn't increase as well: If he gained a +2 astral not from empowerment, but from the bug, and then kept his +2 from items, why did he not get a permanent +1 from the bracelet? Why did he only have his base water-3, +1 for a water bracelet? It's not consistent.

Well, the nation that presumably Last possessed him, Abysia, was AI-controlled at the time. Who knows what goes through the mind of the AI?
