How to use this creature in practice

Melee core and holding approaches

Celestial should take reachable melee exchanges or hold an approach to more valuable units. Before advancing, identify its next target and enemies able to attack it afterward.

Watch for: Base stats are not the final exchange result. Account for retaliation, current creature count, target immunity and subsequent action order.

Timing, specific abilities and the follow-up plan

Combat movement 6 and Initiative 45 are separate. Choose a reachable target by current order and the actual physical or magical attack type.

  • Purity: Celestial is immune to harmful status effects. Direct damage is not automatically the same as a removable debuff.
  • Blade of Epiphany: Celestial restores eligible allies within two tiles and adds 30 morale and 10 initiative for two rounds. The Light effect can damage demons, undead and orcs in range.

Abilities and limitations

  • Purity

    Celestial is immune to harmful status effects. Direct damage is not automatically the same as a removable debuff.

  • Blade of Epiphany

    Celestial restores eligible allies within two tiles and adds 30 morale and 10 initiative for two rounds. The Light effect can damage demons, undead and orcs in range.

  • Blade of Judgement

    Deals 20% more damage to an enemy that destroyed an allied stack in this battle. The trigger is destroying the stack, rather than killing one member.

  • Living

    Can receive applicable healing and resurrection and is affected by morale. A particular spell must still satisfy its own targeting rules.

Where to obtain and develop this creature

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

Growth and construction prerequisites (2)

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

Read Might/Magic damage and protection separately. Protection percentages are not raw Defense attributes. Campaign forms, bosses and transformations do not establish separate ordinary recruitment.

The table separates Might and Magic damage, including the element. Protection percentages are not raw defense attributes; ability bonuses cannot simply be added to them. Growth belongs to the listed reference recruitment form and does not guarantee the same count in every town and patch. Ranged reach is not ammunition. Read separate conditions for bosses and Namtaru forms.

Original roster scope

111 stat profiles from eight historical Acid Cave inventories: 86 faction forms, 12 neutrals and 13 bosses. The faction inventory covers 84 base and upgraded creatures, with additional separate humanoid and spider forms for Fate Spinner and Fate Weaver. A boss is not an ordinary recruit. Might and Magic damage are separate; protection percentages are not raw defense attributes. Values describe the cited reference tables rather than every patch and scenario.
