Agartha, from my under-the-works demo guide

[Unwise]

You should put this up on the wiki:

I will, once I figure some Scale and Pretender design stuff.

That is an excellent post.

Thank you. I hope it will be of use.

Very nice Nerfix! Agartha was my pick for my current (first) game of Dom3. I learned many of the things you are pointing out the hard way. Lost my Oracle prophet and an entire starting army because I misused them.

I've picked Agartha for my very first serious demo game. Water 9 bless is pretty sexy. The only really annoying thing is that the Oracles choose to cast Flying Shards instead of Smite and hit my Ancient Ones more often than the enemy.

Yeah, it's rather stupid behaviour from them. =/

You're not the only one.

"However the Troglodyte Lord is only useful against enemies that are of his size or larger since he Tramples"

I'm going to have to disagree here. The troglodyte's weapons are only useful against creatures his own size (or for repelling), so why worry about his weapon at all?

The Troglodyte is there to trample, and he's really good at it. Slip on some heavy armor, a decent shield, and a defensive weapon (either a long weapon or a defensive weapon like faithful or a main gauche) and he can be very durable in combat. Put on boots of quickness or long strides and he can stomp on a lot of smaller enemies.

Those Troglodyte Lords are great anti-army thugs. Outfitting them for anti-hero work isn't even desirable, since so many enemy heroes are size 3. A properly armored Troglodyte lord can rack up dozens of kills and live to tell the tale. For a small outlay in gems, that's totally worth it.

I see your point. I will have to try this out.

I can see him being good as an emerengy anti-hero commander though since he has higher native Attack value than the Ancient Lord and otherwise rather similiar stats.

No doubt he can also be good against armies.

EDIT: What sort of fatigue he gets from the armor?
