The Demon whip I think I mentioned earlier... I either got it as a random event or in a battle.

It turns out quickness effects don't stack, although it took me a few turns to figure that out.

there's a map coming up in a turn or two - I can't go back and take a shot because I'm up at turn 71 now

Ok, I understand.

In Dom2 each attack against a target lowered the defense of the defender by one against subsequent attacks. Is this still true in Dom3? If so, Balastha could still get beat up by a horde of little guys (imps, hoburgs) that can all make attacks, or by guys with lots of attacks.
Still, quite nice!

I think this works the same in Dom 3. Maybe I need to give him even more

His biggest weakness is no elemental resistance.

I would remove the anti-missle amulet since he can cast an easy spell for the missle protection. An item of reinvigoration will serve much better.

yeah i ended up changing his equipment, especially when I researched Arrow Fend, which was his job to cast for the whole army.

Elemental Resistance is not nearly so important in MP as in SP though. Vanheim is more likely to spam phantasmal warriors or ghost wolves than he is to cast lightning spells.

Sounds like he was a good investement then.
