Getting the max out of MA Agartha - Page 5

Ok, so you're advocating advancing the conjuration path rather than enchantment, going for wights/umbrals rather than the statues. Compeltely different strategy, interesting. I'm not sure what strengths of agartha you are utilising there though? wights/umbrals aren't anything special, golem cult dominion and darkvision are pretty much all agartha has going for it that I'm aware of

I wonder if a strategy could be built around rushing up construction and generating an astral income to build and thug out heaps of normal golems.. they are the most useful construct normally afterall...

As an aside, how can a median not be a whole number of respawns?

{3, 6, 9, 10} is your ordered data set. There is no "middle" element so you find the average between the items next to where the middle element would be.

6+9 = 15/2 = 7.5 <= median is not a whole # of respawns!

Ok, sure, I suppose - but this isn't theoretically a limited data set of 4 points. Surely mean would be a more useful measure?

Probably! Mean is offset by outliers more than median is, but the dataset is so small it makes more sense.

That said, I was just answering the question that you asked

Umbrals are probably the *best* thing agartha has going for it. Better in ea than ma.. but still

I don't have dominions on this computer, however... as I recall they are a pathetically simple summon 1E1D? And cheap.

This is one of the reasons I think add N4 on your pretender is preferable to blood. Site searching, GOH, Gift of Reason. Poison alternatives, (which also work underwater).

Now they are perfectly valid as troops - but if you do GoR them they are great thug chassis..

68 Hpish, ethereal, magic weapons, full slots as I recall.
