Default Success on Seducing ?


I've always been looking hoping for a big seduction score on dominions... unfortunately no luck. Biggest capture was a level_1 fire/astral mage.

Has anyone had better captures with a succubbi lady ?

---looks like higher magic paths provide better resistance to seduction... but it might be my bad luck too.

From a post by Kristoffer O: (responding to Zen, who'd asked if Succubi seduce the hunkiest dude)

Leadership 50+: hunk.
Size 3: well hung hunk
Awe: irresistible hunk
Reinvigouration: long Lasting hunk

In the dark everyone looks the same (with the possible exception of the size 3 fellow).

Size 4 beings can not be seduced. Neither can lifeless beings, undeads, females, eunuchs, animals nor Heart Companions.

In a solo game, I did have a succubus seduce an Ashikagan Jonin.

It was a fairly long game, however, and she'd killed quite a few other commanders before being accepted.

(I was being particularly silly, and equipping her with the Soulstone of the Wolves, a Phoenix Rod, Boots of Stone, other lovely toys, and she didn't handle rejection well.)

So far... it looks like there isn't that many people which had great captures using seduction.

What's your best capture with a succubbi lady ?

My bit of silliness was to arm her with the Tartarian Chains, "if at first you don't succeed..."

Unfortunately, though she seemingly enthralled many an enemy commander via the chains when the seduction failed, I was never sure what happened to the leaders afterward...did they attack their own troops, or just go back among the ranks? I never saw a battle report following a failed seduction/successful Tart. Chain hit, so I can't say...

anyone?

Are there any deadlier assassins than a Succubus, that don't involve the Black Heart item?

I guess the succubus doesn't even try against targets it has no chance to seduce, though? Or will she assassinate even impossible types? Only if there are no seducable types present?

There's one pretender with the assassin skill; also an ethereal assassin that comes from a random event, not sure if that one is deadlier than the succubus.

The succubus will assassinate even enemies that are impossible to seduce. I've had a succubus of mine kill a pretender.

By the way, I would have loved to be able to tell her to just go for the kill, rather than bother with all the seduction business. Flying back to the action was a total waste of time. At some point, I started to use her as a thug. In that game, I had tons of fetishes and blood stones, so I empowered her every time she came home.

With fire shield and invulnerability, she took quite a few provinces by herself. [I added a snapshot of her]
