Wow .
What's the reasoning for giving a virtue 100% FR as well ?
This way you don't need any resistence stuff at all .

May i ask what happened to your new spell references as well ?

Because of the choice of picking the Virtue in the Mod is not as straight forward as it might have been before.

Just glanced at the list. So everyone is improved except Ghost King, Prince of Death, and Allfather who are nerfed? And a few others (Moloch at least) are untouched? Interesting.

If you want to count the nerfs, you might also want to include the missing head slot on the Void Lord.

Though of course, I always thought he just stuffed his facesucker in the top of all his helmets, looking like an octopus trying to get through a heating vent.

I like what you've done to the human pretenders, I'm looking forward to trying them out! I suppose you've considered stripping the Moloch of his imps, and decided not to?

you leave my imps alone you!

Ya, I noticed the Void Lord but forgot to mention it. The Sacred Statue got an odd change that I'm not sure is a nerf or a bonus. I guess it's to differentiate the Oracle, Sphinx, and Statue a little more? Now Statue is the most versatile of the three and Oracle is the cheapest Astral 3.

Hmmm. Intuitively it seems like the Skratti should maybe get its HPs bumped just a little - there's just not enough difference between it and some of the human pretenders, HP-wise.

I haven't really decided what role the Skratti is to play, if I could redistrict the pretenders, Giants would only have a very limited selection of Human Pretenders (Giants have a hard time calling any "Human" god).

In his current state, the Skratti has tougher stats, costs 50 and has 10/path, it's hard to not choose him if you are going for a Rainbow Pretender as Jotun, I feel.
