The Ark can kill your pretender?

not a rationale, but i figure immunity is conferred by the "sacred" flag, which one's pretender doesn't have. Same reason he's not blessed w/ his own blessing

Does the armor that makes one sacred work on pretender ?
And does it save you from the Arc effect if you use it on e.g. Ice devils ?

shroud of the battle saint doesn't work on pretenders, but it does confer sacred status on anyone else.

Not to nitpick, but that's not correct -- the shroud blesses you, it wont make you sacred, and your butt will still get fried by the Ark when you are wearing it.

oh no way

that's no nitpick - i was flat out wrong

BTW, Boron's question regarding how you can get the Ark has not been answered ...

The MIQR 3.1 states it a 4F4A.

For you zealots out there find it here www.techno-mage.com/~zen/MIpdfv3.1.xls in Excel format.

Boron could try reading the manual, not too much to ask of such an "expert" on the game's balance and design.
