But it still doesn't work.
It's not just the buffs they won't cast.
Only one will cast the Soul Slay or Charm each round. The others will just sit there and take his fatigue.

More effective to use 9 (or 10) shamen. 8 for slaves and 1 or 2 masters. Equip the masters if you want, but they'll get 3 path boosts from the slaves anyway, so with your gear and without buffs they'd be at 5S6N anyway.

That's a neat trick.

Aha! I think this is the part I wasn't getting. So if there is a communion, a Master casting a spell would be kind of like the slave casting the spell as well, so the slave cannot do any casting in the same round even if the slave is a "Master" as well. Right?

Oh well, anyway, I was initially hoping that the communion would allow for the "speed buffs" spreading among all the members, and then allow for reduced fatigue for Charm and/or Soul Slay spam. I'll still try it out to be sure, but after I think I'll just have each cast outside of a communion.

My endgame prophet SC. I wish-buffed him 'a tad'.

[Meglobob]

Thats one sick mother...

How many turns did it take to get him like that?

[Azhur]

Having wished it, I propheted, wished twelve times (magic power, power) and finally forged 3 equips. So that's about 16 turns & -1300 astral pearls.

I just love the style, my precious prophet smites Bogus to smithereens with one strike.



Here's Risen Oracle's opponent. Assuming I'm casting basic battle buffs (mistform, mirror image, soul vortex etc.), then just attack closest, who wins? Make a guess.

OMFG!!!

"vast magical and priestly powers", indeed...

Still, Risen Oracle can go underwater. One point to him

[HoneyBadger]

risen oracle doesn't have awe or medusa-stoning ability or flying or poison resistance, 2 less holiness and 4 less attacks per round.

Poor oracle

Better stay in the water-preferrably the deep, deep end. For that matter, I'm kind of glad I live in a basement, at the moment.

[Sheap]

Give the Oracle an elf-bane and he will have better luck...
