Default Re: Immortals. There CAN BE ONLY ONE! Sorry, Two.

Communicants do not work like normal communion slaves. For one thing, they take much less fatigue damage from spells than normal slaves. I'm not sure exactly how everything works, but I think Pythium communicants divide up the spell fatigue without adjusting for path levels, because they have no paths, whereas normal communicants do the normal adjustment, e.g. x2 fatigue for being 1 path level short, or x0.5 for being 1 path level over. This means that you can do a Master Enslave with 8 communicants without all of them immediately maxing out on fatigue and dying with the next spell cast. There's some other weirdness that goes on, too, but communicants are much better than normal communion slaves in all the ways I'm aware of.
