Cloaked Curser

[Biblofilter]

Intresting points!

Im guessing you´d do better vs solo/buddy builds than builds with more creatures?

Better vs Blasting Banker than vs. Water Wizard (6 dispel/dissolves, teleporting hydras) or small creature swarm builds (like Straywood Aviary)

I partly agree - you can make Wizard Tower less usefull, but if the Tower is cast to the left of the Wizard - either the Tower of the Wizard can target you, if you want to target the Wizard.

Anyone with Dragonscale Hauberk and or Elemental Cloak + Armor Ward means you can only damage them with curses? So you might be in trouble.

lots of creatures i would try to kite and chains of agony(4 copies). ive never fought more than 3 creatures w/ mage so far so i dont know.

So far no one has teleported a creature on top of me....for some reason. I fought an all-fast creature book last time, and that was annoying, but i held out ok with elusive/fast and running(and slowing).

maybe? i always choose next to the wizard over the wizard tower. if wizard and tower take up the centres, I try to be in a corner.

I'll go over burn marker damage again: if that have super heavy fire armor, I have ignite, adremalechs torment, and pile on the ignite markers / curses. thats like 5 damage in curses + 3 dice in ignite every turn, while they have poisoned blood. Its enough to kill them so long as i keep them up. And thats assuming i dont bother to fireball mr mage with akiros favor just to stack more burns. If they have a (cursed) creature guarding them, I can add a burn to the mage every round without an action. So if they have armor ward, i get to do more arcane corruption damage. Try to look at the bright side.

Consider adding Eagle Claw Boots. You need to be able to scale a barricade of Earth Walls if a Warlord decides to build an army behind one before advancing against you.

i do have boots as of mark 5

I think raincloud might be a problem as it interferes with fire damage, burn markers, and provides regeneration. I have no ethereal to deal with it.

I am impressed with this design as it really is an "I don't care about your armor and resistances" book.  I was trying to dissect it and figure out the playstyle and what might be modifiable.  I have a couple of questions if you wouldn't mind answering them.

The Battleforge.  How many pieces of equipment do you actually get out of it before you're too far away (obscured) due to having to kite?

Sersyrix.  Do you find your opponents ignore him or try to cut him down quickly?  The times I've run him with Lady-lock he's been focused really hard.

Has anyone yet figured out to kill your Adramelech's Torment and neuter your burns since you don't have a mage wand for your ignites?

(Regarding Adramelech's Torment: am I correct that this ability has no range and only needs line of sight?)

Woo attention. I havent played the book for a little while.

Battleforge: sometimes I only get 2 pieces out before its killed via attack spell. If they leave it alone, I can usually hang out by it to get all the equipment i want, but there are mana constraints. My opening is usually mana crystal and battleforge. If i go for the rare early fireballs, I go something like fire ring->cloak->wand or fire ring->lash. Usually the progression is ring of curses, cloak, Adramelech's Torment, Regrowth Belt.

I have trouble making myself bring Sersyrix out due to mana troubles. The opening is battleforge or Sersyrix and I like battleforge. He is mostly ignored unless there is nothing else to attack. Maybe the best way is to open with Sersyrix and after he (and his rise again zombie) are killed plant a battleforge.

No one has ever neutered my burns, but if they are a druid or wizard, I don't bother with burns much.

[mwcard=MWSTX2FFQ01]Adramelech's Torment[/mwcard] only needs LOS. no range limit.

I'm gonna go try to play her some right now
