"Dying is cringe" - Neferata

"Dying is for the weak... and mortals" - Mannfred von Carstein, maybe. "I tried dying once. Don't recommend it, 0 stars on 5. You won't see me dying again soon, that I can tell you!" - Vlad von Carstein, surely. "Me and my husband tried dying together... Well, it is certainly the worst of ideas for a honey moon. Next time, instead, we'll get back to dining at a blood feast like in our last 4832 wedding anniversaries, it never gets old. Sylvania has such good places for it." Isabella von Carstein, definitely. "Dying is that new thing some youngsters try, nowadays. Hopefully, the trend will pass, it's pretty cringe... I might be called an old fart for saying this, but you'll never see me try it." W'soran, seemingly. "As usual, like for any kind of activity, some people will call me a cultural swine, an ignorant, or even a MONSTER for not trying it... But I don't see why I should be treated as a weirdo just because I don't like dying. It just isn't my thing, you know?" Ushoran, apparently. "Dying is for coward, unnoble wretches and honourless curs." Abhorash, certainly. "Death? You mean... dying? Oh, darling, only people with poor taste die... And I have the finest taste! Especially for blood... By the way, can you come closer along your neck?" - Neferata, truly. "Only landlubbers die. It's their lot after all. But that's not for us, hardened sailors, arrrrrrrh!" Noctilus von Carstein, presumably. "None of my 13 selves, even the maddest ones, would ever think of a such a terrible idea like ... dying. It goes to tell you how much of a stupid and crazy idea it is." Luthor Harkon, plausibly. "Actually, I wrote a song about this topic. It's titled "Dying Sucks". Let me sing it to you. *Note: recording device suffered a breakdown at this point." Cylostra Direfin, believably. "Dying is not worthy of anyone. And certainly not of the MIGHTY SETTRA, King of Kings, High King of Nehekhara, Khemrikara... *the interviewee goes on for a while from this point onward*" Settra the Unperishable, indubitably. "Even if my King asked me to die, I would tell him to go fuck himself. I hope this hints at how much dying stinks!" Khatep, doubtlessly. "Asaph prevented me from dying when I had the opportunity. If the fact that a FREAKING goddess went out of her way to prevent me from dying doesn't make you realize how grotesque and terrible it is to die. I don't know what else you need... I'll admit that my cousin was at least completely right on that point." Khalida, most likely. "My Master has spent CENTURIES vying for the right of people to not die. You've got to admire his dedication. And somewhat appreciate how much of an awful concept dying is. I'll certainly follow my boss on that one, and not by loyalty." Arkhan, presumptively. "I have learned and experienced many things in my life. And dying is certainly not something I want to learn anything about. Even my good ol' bonehead of a Krell wouldn't want to try it, and he's a daredevil, I tell you. Isn't that right, Krell ?" Kemmler, assumably. "Me and my brothers we always did things together and had the same taste. Until the day they suddenly, for no reason at all, completely out of the blue; decided to die. Let me tell you that I certainly did not follow them in their new wild idea. Thankfully they have changed their mind since then and we're back to having good fun all together, between brothers." Hellman Ghorst, positively.

@@Indolthir "Dying is essential if you want some nice colours for your uniform." Empire greatsword, absolutely.

A necromancer is just a healer who doesn't give up easily.

"You cannot heal dead men" wait whaaaat? Heinrich Kemmler: "Hold my beer."

Wonderful information sir. I thank you

Most of the passive spells are very good in campaign per reducing the cost of cheap spells. That is why I really like the passive spells of Lore of the Deep.

passives like this is why I love Kairos.

Thank you, my math senses were triggered.

It also affects armour values funnily enough, so you're taking even more damage exhausted vs fresh

@@alexscholz3438 maybe the unit is too tired to avoid showing weakspots in the armor

Regrowth sounds bad, but its insane. I only realised how strong Vigour was after getting Louen once to stand away from combat for about 30 seconds, popping Foe Seeker and then return to combat.

@@R_J8 What was the effect?

@@cobrazax He went from Tired to Fresh. Stat penalties went away. You can imagine his efficacy against Tired/Winded/Exhausted units then.

There was actually a busted strat early on in IE where you could cast it on peasants as Bretonnia and they'd just melt anything they touched, it was hilarious

Probably works well on anything with low melee defense. And probably works best when you have a lot of the models in the unit fighting simultaneously.

I've heard Chaos Spawn pretty much insta-kill themselves against chaff with damage reflection because of how many units their attacks hit. Keep forgetting to actually test that myself though.

This a family friendly channel, how you and your boyfriend enjoy your morning isn’t any of our business 😅

Haha that joke cracked me up

@@sherkhead9638 was more talking about myself but yea... lol

It was nerfed pretty harshly.

@@ruukinen Unless it was nerfed like a week ago it's no different

@@5chr4pn3ll The nerf took it from one of the best to not even close. That is what I am saying. It's now in line with other stationary vortexes with slightly lower damage for lore of life reasons or so. What I'm saying is "Dwellers Below is one of the strongest damage spells in the game atm." is no longer accurate. Changed in November 2022. Went ahead and checked since you couldn't be arsed.

There's an extra tick on cast, but not an extra at the end.

Not gonna lie. Skarsnik, and Gotrik and Felix should have been that. I hope Thanqol gets his goon, too

It's mostly on the tooltip - if spell's AP is below 50% don't use it on armoured units

Dwellers does damage allied units. Think of it as a stationary vortex. The "Direct Damage" tag is due to the contact effect.

Undead are weak to fire, and the lore of life doesn't have any fire damage, so no, but etherial units like banshees are weak to magic in general.

@@owlboy4923 thanks

Better bring Fire Magic (weakness to fire) or Death Magic (VC characters are really powerful)

Light Magic has a few spells that specifically have extra effects on Undead or Daemon units, the Tomb Kings are generally weak to fire, and Fire on the whole generally does well against them, but the undead don't have any reverse healing effect, and if an undead faction gets a bound life spell somehow or has an ally that can cast it, they get healed by it too.

Usually but it depends. Some beefier multi model units can actually get good health off it, and it can help an infantry unit hold for longer. For the Lizardmen specifically, if combined with the Bastiladon Rev Crystal, then the Rev crystal only actually resurrects units once all the models in the unit are at full health, so an earth blood to top the unit off, to get maximum unit returns is a good idea

"Strong vs X" doesn't change how spells work, it's how spells work that makes them stronger vs single or group of enemies.

@@mmorkinism This Any of the tooltip suggestions aren't hard rules, they're just generally explaining how to effectively use the way the spell or effect works. They're not even always right.
