And your flagellants are almost effective, even if not really survivable.
maybe if you pick up some indy druids.(Protection?)
I love the Baphomet. I tried the dual-bless strategy you've mentioned about a week ago in an SP game and was pretty impressed with the results.
I suppose you could get a similar thing going with the Phoenix and Fire 9/Air 9, although it wouldn't be as economical. Maybe I'll give that a go this weekend, and see how it plays.

Im sort of an economical conservative -- I go with Air 5 on a Virtue, which gives me a nice starting scales and dominion value. The blessing is nothing to yell about, but it's still 30%, and it costs next to nothing. But then again I never go 9 with air since I rarely need SR.
