Default Re: phoenix pretender problems

Yes, that's what I trhough first. I'm just doing my Phoenix now for EA C`tis. What I like in Phoenix, is it's like a gun.. You just shoot him into some province, and even if he doesn't kill all, he kills part of defenders. You just reload the gun and shoot again.. And it's without risks to loose it! It looks for me better then Wyrm now. You can attack heavy cavalary, dark vines to kill slaves... And wyrm (which I like a lot) requires dom 9-10, ther is no magic on him, and you get your afflictions earlier or later, and useless in mid/endgame.

What I also like is no need to have high dominion for AWE , which is requirement for other SC gods (yes, I've read pluses to have it, but still I think it's not necessary).

Ctis are very limited in magic until conj 7-8-9, so I'm thinking how to spend points properly - and one of alternative builds was a4f4e4 phoenix.I'm planning to rush to cons 4 for research skulls and then - to conj8/cons8 with some minor research in other fields to make phoenix a bit more effective.

1. The current build assumes also o3s1h3d1L0M3 dom4 a4f4e4 phoenix, or
2. alternate o3s1h3d1L1M1 dome 3 with adding a4f4e4W4 to phoenix.
3. The third one in consideration is just F4A4 phoenix with all other points invested into magic and growth.

The question why I asked why E2, is very high cost of a new path for phoenix, and if you take E2 it's quite tempting to take E4.

I'm not planning buying a lot of sacred units, but bless could be useful for summons, and site searching would also be a dream.

What would be your thoughts, for EA Ctis? I didn't sleep well yesterday. Too much of mind infection from this game
