If you're going for a rainbow pretender and have D2+ already, you could splash 10 design points for F1. Then you can make flaming skulls for the +F boost.

E4 reinvigoration is good for Pythium's sacred mages, N4 is good for their old age (shrouds). And E4N4 is good diversification for Pythium.

I don't see a need for an SC god when you've got hydras. So a rainbow with N4E4, and whatever other paths you want to round it out with sounds good to me.

The N4 regen cuts down on angel afflictions, and E4 reinvig is good for them too.

This is an old thread, but maybe the right place to ask if Theurges auto cast Astral Tempest if you leave unscripted pearls on them. I seem to remember in dom2 just researching evo and casting SOAP, but when then theurgs self destructed some good armies right after I got astral tempest.

And if you came here looking for a strategy for Pythium, I'm a newb, and I've only had evo/SOAP work against just one opponent or the AI. I played Pythium in an MP game and was working this strategy, but not only was I small, but I got ganged up on... which I guess can frequently happen to Pythium, and I assume it is assured to happen if you try and skip mid-game by casting SOAP with a rainbow pretender early, and going to conj.
