How to use this creature in practice

Ranged stack requiring usable line of sight

Succubus Seducer needs line of sight to an important target. Position the screen against actual enemy reach; repeated ranged actions matter only when the enemy cannot quickly engage it.

Watch for: Distance, obstacles, engagement and ammunition are separate conditions. A ranged attribute alone does not guarantee full damage against every target.

Timing, specific abilities and the follow-up plan

Speed 4 sets movement reach; Initiative 9 concerns ATB. A movement change is not the same change in action frequency.

  • Shooter: Fires at range using ammunition. An adjacent enemy blocks shooting; the normal distance penalty applies.
  • Demonic: Demonic type is skipped by Succubus Chain Shot and follows the relevant Holy Word vulnerability.

Abilities and limitations

  • Shooter

    Fires at range using ammunition. An adjacent enemy blocks shooting; the normal distance penalty applies.

  • Demonic

    Demonic type is skipped by Succubus Chain Shot and follows the relevant Holy Word vulnerability.

  • Ranged Retaliation

    Returns enemy ranged fire when unblocked and with retaliation still available.

  • Seduction

    Once per battle, controls an eligible enemy stack. Duration depends on relative power; the seducing stack’s death ends it.

  • Immune to Puppet Master

    Immune to Puppet Master. Assess other damage and effect types separately.

Heroes connected to this creature

Combat specialty for this recruitment line (1)

The 3.1 manual explicitly names this form as a specialty target. Under the relevant hero it gains Attack and Defense every two levels, with the first +1 at level 1. This is not a sourced starting-army count, town-growth bonus or automatic Speed bonus.

Reference ↗

Where to obtain and develop this creature

This form uses the upgraded dwelling; construction cost is not the retraining price.

Growth and construction prerequisites (4)

Growth support is not another recruitment site. A prerequisite may unlock one of the recruitment forms.

Reference stack cost and health

These values multiply every resource in the undiscounted reference price and full base health. Hero, equipment, spell, price and growth modifiers are excluded. This is neither final damage or battle survival nor a guarantee that the listed number is available to recruit.

Reading this profile correctly

The reference is Tribes of the East 3.1. Initiative concerns ATB and Speed concerns movement; increasing one does not automatically increase the other. Upgrades and alternatives have separate profiles.

Resource costs are part of recruitment. For an entire stack, multiply every component, not just gold. Base growth excludes additional town, map and hero bonuses. Zero shots means no regular ranged attack; the creature can still have spells or other active abilities.

Original roster scope

177 creatures from the Tribes of the East 3.1 manual: 168 faction variants and 9 neutrals. Original and alternative upgrades remain separate. Stats exclude heroes, artifacts and spells. Speed determines range; Initiative determines ATB action timing. Costs include rare resources and are per creature.
