What uses ?? It's just an utterly crappy blessing, I can't see why in any case someone would like such a poor effect for investing in level 9 magic ...

Would be useful for massed sacreds (such as high death flagelants) stacking afflictions on less numerous enemies. I doubt i would EVER take b9 just for the bless but if i was taking it on a pretender for casting spells the bless could be handy.

The bless is potentially useful on weak, massable sacred units. But aside from Marignon Flagellants, I can't name many others. Mictlan Eagle/Jaguar/Sun warriors, perhaps.

If I wanted to curse a lot of units, I'd try Baleful Star. If my goals were afflictions, I'd go for Death bless, which sounds suspiciously deadly now. And it doesn't require any sacreds to die just to potentially do something !

The Death Curse should be Disease or something equally brutal.

Curse Luck would also work. It sounds like a brutal effect - and negates Luck!

How about the death curse lowering stats? -10%health, -2 strength, attack, defence and mr (the MR loss would be very nasty, especially if you were also using D()

I see..

For White centaur the str bonus is by far better. EA Ctis serpent dancers could be good with B9 bless but Shamans already cast Curse.


What is curse luck?

A very very beginer question: what does curse do? is it like luck but with 50% dmg increased?

Very nasty looking thing. I put my vote in for death curse causing cursed luck.
Regular curse (afaik) simply increasing the chance of getting afflictions when you are wounded.

Horror Marking would be fun instead, but maybe that's too much
