Fire 9 blessing

[Cainehill]

Like having an extra attack that does 8 AP damage, and is magical, so it can hit ethereal units just fine.

Does it add strength?

Also, does the 50% quickness for W9 bless increase attacks or just movement?

[Cainehill]

Blood blessing adds strength. And yes, the W9 quickness gives a 50% chance each turn of extra actions - attack, spell, etc.

I believe that Water-9 bless gives you two actions per round (instead of 1) and 150% movement points. So if you have a tactical move of 10, with Water-9 bless you get 15. But you get 2 actions per round, not 1-and-a-half actions per round (which would be 3 actions every 2 rounds).

Water-9 blessing does *not* stack with the Quickness spell or Boots of Quickness. I think that it stacks with Heroic Quickness, but I'm uncertain of the details.

[Zooko]

Note: Quickness spell *does* affect you if you already have a Water-9 blessing in effect, namely, it sets your move to 200% instead of 150%, and it gives you +3 defense. But it does not increase the number of actions per round you get, which is already at "two per round" due to the Water-9 blessing.

By "does it add strength" I meant does the 8ap damage from the F9 attack add strength to the damage?

No.

P.S. I've not tried it but I bet heroic quickness DOES stack with the W9 blessing ...
