Default Re: Illearth has 0 defence? Why?

Edit: Never mind, since I publicly mentioned it, I decided to test it, and it seems shields add Parry to the listed Defense rating. I think. ; )

1) When your defence decreases due to being hit multiple times in one round, and you check the properties of the hit unit, how is the loss of defense displayed? Could that have caused it?
2) Thejeff, what Ylvali is saying that in spite of this unit being a prophet (prophet icon + blessed status), it does not have any level in Holy magic, which a prophet should have at least 3.
This is an interesting point that Ylvali raises.

1) As far as I know, the drop in defense from multiple hits isn't displayed anywhere. It's treated as a defense penalty on subsequent hits, rather than a change to the base defense.

2) I was pointing out the prophet icon, since Ylvali only commented on the prophet bonus on the first screen.

lol, ok, just to continue this useless discussion, let me say this is not an in-battle screenshot.

I seem to be coming down with the dominion fever, getting fed up with its loose ends.

Is this a question or a riddle?

Because if it's a genuine question you aren't giving us enough information.

If he is indeed a resummoned dead prophet he might have some kind of residual effect remaining from his death (perhaps a tangle vine). Since he died and did not leave battle it might be that the affliction wasn't properly removed. If this is the case a simple battle would resolve the problem.
