I tried them without a bless and they were extremely powerful. At 3 astral gems each(i think, did it a few hours ago) they have good stats, ethereality and a very powerful weapon(hitting with 25ap damage means basically anything they hit is dead). Their ethereality, great stats, strong weapon, low cost and size 2 makes them superior to just about any troops without magic weapons and some troops with magic weapons. If you factor in things like the minor death bless ermor is likely to have from its pretender(maybe +200% affliction chance or so) they are amazing at taking out SCs(and i dont want to imagine what they do to undead SCs like banelords) and other tough troops aswell as line troops.
