Took my Wulfies in against Mab and Kraken; they got mana burned and devoured.
My Kraken devoured a Plague today in the GW, that was a good feeling!
Not when it was my Plague . . .
@sayrel I apologize, and feel free to come back if you want to. I agree that I stretched it a little too far with the word I used. I never was much of a bad guy.
Thatâs awful. Itâs bad enough trying to get him a meal and now his only useful trait is useless? Poor WulfyâŚ
Indigestible and the other new one, I forget the name, appear to be working. Impervious is non-existent at this point.
Fortitude? The dwarf one?
I really want to mess around with the Dwarves again,thats a great sign.
Probably. Or maybe Undying? I canât remember offhand which does what.
Undying is the undead one - immune to disease and poison, IIRC.
So mana shield is the only protection against Mab, then. I guess @eika is getting his wish.
According to the patch notes, itâs under investigation. Doesnât mean it will be working anytime soon.
At least it will be opening up the Mana burn potential a little, and I will be even more glad to see some more mana burn troops in the near future. There is some weapons and a Mooserabbit that has it, I think many of us would like to see more mana burn troops, and also that maybe the immunity of mana burn was taken away from Impervious. Its a good start I think, and possibly even a final solution.
I never liked the idea of sticking mana burn and devour immunity under the impervious umbrella. I think it should have stayed a trait that protected against status effects only. Thatâs powerful enough.
That said, I think they should keep Indigestible and Mana Shield as trait options. Along those same lines, I wouldnât mind if Mana shield guarded against all mana manipulation⌠mana burn, mana drain, etc.
I use a Mab team for attack most of the time, but never for defense. My defend team is always crafted to provide maximum benefit for the weekly event. (This week, I put in 4 Stryx troops.) I donât like the mana shield traits, but if there are no more than two with that ability, I usually donât have any trouble. If there is three, I have to pass or go another route. Maybe this is mostly just problem at higher levels, because I donât see a preponderance of anti-mana-burning at my level.
I like this idea, and I like the concept in general of having âfamiliesâ of immunities versus things like Impervious.
