What sacred advantages do you get for magic levels

[Slen]

I was told 9 water magic gives sacred units quickness if blessed... but I don't see it listed!

Where can I get a list of all the effects of blessing with the corresponding pretender magic levels required?

I believe it is in the manual.

[GriffinOfBuerrig]

No, its not in manual(i am quite sure).

[Chazar]

DominionsII Handbook Table 1, Row 7 lists the Water 9 Blees explicitely. The Table is printed just before Section 2.1.4., at least in my book. Cheers.

[Endoperez]

It's in my manual too. Page 5.

[GriffinOfBuerrig]

Hoppa!

There are more complete lists of blessing effects around here, just search. Probably ligas addendum is a good place to check as well.

I bought my copy of dominions 2 in a pre-owned bargain bin in gamestop....had the cd in a jewel case with the cd key on a piece of tape lol. I was weary when I picked it up *BUT* the cd key works online so I was not ripped off... no manual though.

Only your pretender's starting levels matter.

[Chazar]

I think the Air Shield increases in 10% steps for odd values as well, ie. Air 5 yields 30% protection.

[Slen]

Are those cumulative, for example, for a lvl 9 nature pretender, do they get regeneration, poison resistance(50%) AND beserk +3, or AND besker +6?

They would have regen, poison res. 50%, and berzerker +3.

Thanks for all the info http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Last question, why dont these stats actually show in battle?

Things like Flaming Weapons, Regeneration, Lesser Fear etc. should show, not sure about stats. Are you sure the unit was actually blessed?

[Slen]

Yeap.

Should quickness show too?

Beserk is not.

[Nerfix]

There's no quickness symbol but I suppose Berserk should show. As far as I know it has it's own symbol. At least the newest version has.

[Oversway]

I've always seen berserker showing.

w9 blessing has no icon, but you see the increased movement (as well as the +4 def) if you inspect the unit. Note that it is not the same as "quickness" from the spell or item. In fact they will stack. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

[Chazar]

I second that: Right-click on the movement value will show that type of quickness... Everything else should shows as well (AirShield & Berserker & Boni to Att/Def definitely do). Check out your prophet, for prophets are blessed even outside of battle.

[magnate]

Sorry to be dim, but could somebody explain the Death9 and Blood9 blessings? Are they like spell effects?

Also, what are the stats of the flaming weapons for Fire9? I presume they do some extra fire damage, which is reduced or increased by resistance or susceptibility to fire. Is this damage AP or AN? Do the flaming weapons alter the unit's attack or defence values? What about archers?

TIA,

D9 - Resurrects the slain unit as a Soulless. Supposedly good for sacred mages.

B9 - Enemy who hits the blessed creature has a chance to become cursed.

Flaming Weapons - 8 AP damage, fire immunity negates as far as I know. I *think* it works on archers.

[Oversway]

I think the B9 curse is only when killing the unit and there is a magic resistance check. Its not that great
