Agreed! How about giving Yomi "Tempering the Will"? They've got the casters for it, it won't do a whole heck of a lot for them most of the time due to the already-pretty-good MR so it's unlikely to disturb balance.

And while we're at it, give Hannyas +10%W so Yomi can: (1) have a shot at summoning a Kappa without forcing them to take a WN god or pray for amazons, and (2) make rune smashers so "Tempering the Will" has something like a 10% chance of actually increasing MR, instead of just 5%.

Monkey PD. Heh, that's an oxymoron.

Well, apart for their just scandalous MR, their bandar infantry is quite good. just their MR (8?)... Seeing a 80+ bandar royal swordsman army kill each other because of confusion spam (by A2 mages with no items) is, indeed, painfull.
('test' made with CBM)

I can't remember if all their troops share this most gifted MR, but if they do I rate them last just because of it (in all eras). What a pain it must be in MP...

On paper, they look good. On the battlefield they are just a bunch of apes. Just like it should be - gorillas are mighty, but helpless agaisnt armed humans.

They are overpriced, large (thus prone to being swarmed) and not as tough, as, say, a Jotun giant to justify the drawbacks.

P.S.
Dont get me wrong, I dont consider Bandar Log pathetic anymore. Not with CBM, anyway. They are quite unique and fun.
