Champion's Trident doesn't stack with normal quickness:

... and it seems Quickness and Water Blessing work in mysterious ways.

Also, it seems I have actually forgotten some of the information I once had:
Post#361137

I had degenerated into thinking it was actually random!
That last thread mentions Heroic Quickness as well, but it all seems too complicated for anyone to grasp. E.g. the whole thread was started because Communion Master seemed to affect Quickness.

no, zooko was wrong, as W9 doesn't give 2 attacks per round.

W9 and the spell should stack - i don't think there's a 2 action limit from that, but i could be wrong i guess. The heroic ability stacks w/ anything, and can lead to some very nice effects

Yep nothing like a Jotun Herse with Heroic Quickness 200%+, equipped with Soulstone of the Wolves and scripted to cast spells; even without Jade Armor or a W9 blessing, that's a lot on wolves on the field. (Had this going in one game - sadly, the nature blessing wound up making him go berserk eventually.)

The Fenris Pelt (or some such) summons once at the beginning. Soulstone auto-summons once, and then can cast Howl each turn, if scripted to do so.

The free Call of the Wild each turn is pretty nice - but the in-battle usage is what makes it so great, all those wolves coming at the enemy mages from all directions.

You know, in the Calling All Players game I missed Ritual of Rebirthing my original prophet by two turns. Three turns ago. He was over 100% when he died... Sometimes I really hate how pretenders take space in HoF when they don't merit heroic abilities.
