A Stellar Dragon from 3rd Edition Dnd.

These dudes are actually entire constellations linked with sentience kindly watching the Universe. They love gathering info and chatting with wizards. Information forms in shapes of pearls in their bodies.

Do people often avoid seraphs to wish for, on the grounds against an astral nation, a few astral duels (even from S1) and one of them is going to stick?

Along these lines - does anyone know if a Chayot is "immune" to astral duels by virtue of the shapechange? i.e. do they just convert form, or are they down for the count at that point?

AFAIK they just change form, like Hydra hit by Soul Slay.

Hrrrm will a Chayot hit by a Dimension Rod or a spell like Claws of Kokytos that banishis them to an icy real actually work? or will they just change shape.

I fought one on several occassions in Glory.

They are hardy little bastards. I killed all but one of his forms on multiple occassions -but killing him was tough. Finally managed it by cutting off his escapes and making him route.

Definitely an awesome unit - and to my mind superiour to a seraph. However, he was using the chayot bug. IF that were banned, I'd call it more close to even.

What's the chayot bug?

Do they keep their equipment when they change shape ? The last patch tells me they should, but I wonder if anyone tested it.

If given a Ring of Wizardry, they suddenly have access to magic from all 4 forms, rather than just Astral.

And yes Humakty, all shapes have all slots, so retain all gear.

Now that's interesting. I wonder how empowerment affects a Chayot?
