The Archduke’s spell is deal [Magic x 1.5 + 7] damage so the 66 Magic becomes 107 damage. If you want a guaranteed kill the damage would be at least 157 (100 Magic).
Cuz he is kinda butt. Hki or zuul or ct usually better instant kill troops. Only kinda butt tho dont forget the kinda i dont wanna get technically’d below
The spell description is somewhat misleading and it’s very easy for someone to be confused. So many things in this game are deceptive, and it’s like they’re trying to hide things like this intentionally.
Keep this in mind when we have a red/demon journey in about 2 weeks. He will be a somewhat reliable method of defeating level 300+ enemies when the difficulty gets too high.
I’m expecting a bug report about him again in the near future.
I think the spelltext is fine, the issue is simply mistaking the purple number for the Magic stat itself, when purple simply means “scales with Magic stat”.
I know I’ve had battles where I’m surprised a troop survived getting hit by The Archduke…
