Guide Fatigue quick reference - Page 2

Most elemental spells cause fatigue damage. This is most noticeable with Thunder Strike but it also for sure happens with Fireball and Magma Eruption (the smoke after the eruption), and I assume most others.

And of course there's Sleep Cloud.

And Cold Resistance does NOT effect encumbrance from Cold Blooded.

Rigor Mortis only covers 1/2 the battlefield?

The half the enemy is on I hope......

It has a 50% chance of hitting any particular square each round. It's pretty useful if, for instance, you have an E9 blessing and sacred mages and he doesn't. Your mages will regain 4 FP per turn on average (5 base + 4 for blessing) and his will regain 0 on average, assuming neither of your mages is undead.

Like Darkness, it also tends to equalize troops. Defense suffers twice as much from fatigue as attack does, and Prot suffers even more, so when the troops have an average of 70 fatigue each you'd rather have 500 chaffy troops than 200 elite troops. In a way that sort of makes it a counter to Army of Gold/Lead.

Obviously the best combination is to have Rigor Mortis + sacred Death mages spamming Raise Dead.

4 xp stars reduce enc by 1

also, WL, as things are now in the OP you are saying that CR reduces heat fatigue ;p

Never knew that before.
All the more reason to start raking up exp.

I also wasn't aware fo the 4 star impact! Not like it's exactly a strateg changer, but nice to know

Seeing as you've included Relief on the spell list, is this guide to include reinvig also? And encumbrance? In particular the difference between melee and spellcasting encumbrance would be useful reading for new players. Likewise the impact of spell requirement and caster level on fatigue, and how gems can be used to reduce it.
