Default Re: MA Abysia: The Burninator Flies Again

Seems pretty effective to me. Just ran a test with 300 archers vs 50 devils under darkness & storm. 0 devil casualties, 127 archers killed before they ran away.

Archer precision 10. -7 for darkness. -2 (it was at 3) for storm. Current precision: 1. Half the arrows are negated by the storm.

Out of 300 archers I count maybe 6 arrow hits turn one (at roughly max range for shortbows). Probably twice that turn two as the devils get close. Turn three the devils are in melee range, and take about 20 hits...but friendly fire damage is even higher and of course the devils cut through the 2 defense low protection archers like...well, I was gonna say soft butter but it was more like melted butter.

Sure you could keep the devils off the archers longer with some blockers but the archers really didn't hit any significant number of devils until they were literally nose to nose. Darkness + storm is extremely effective vs archers and mages.
