Besides if U liked anc. phoenix so much, U will love new dragon summoning spell - its better, but cost f.... lots of mana (60)

Can you please to explain to me how it is better? I've used both and I found it inferior in every way.

Does Summoned Pheonix decrease the morale of dragon in allied army ?

Summons aren't affected by morale modifiers. Also, I don't believe a Phoenix counts the same as a "royal griffin" who hates dragons, etc.

So, in short, no. You can safely use Ancient Phoenixes alongside your dragons.

The damage output of the Ancient Phoenix is better then in AP.
So playing a Impossible Mage game is easier then before. At least for me.

I did killed everything on Bolo in less then 4 game hours. I didn't backtrack or do any unnecessary walking.

ICECOOL how long does it take you to Clear Bolo + the Underground.

Well, that depends on you getting the Phoenix early. In my game, it only spawned in Verona. But I have been using it with my Paladin, and even with a lower intellect it is usefull.

I wonder how powerfull the Resurrection talent is, is it worth casting instead of Resurrect? Can it resurrect level 5s too?

Sorry for the late reply,

Yes the Ancient Phoenix can resurrect lvl 5 to.
Thats why he is so much more powerful then in Armored Princess.
The more int you have the more HP and ATT the Phoenix has.

I am still working on my Impossible Mage campaing (going for 0 loss and max 7 days) I am lvl 30 now and I still use the Phoenix.
My main tactic is first round cast Fear and Summon Phoenix.
Second round Fear Fear (or slow). Then I cast Magic springs and stone skin on my Red dragons and go finish the battle. Most of my battles don't last longer than 7 rounds.

Also tried the new phoenix and he really rocks now. Hes ress is quite low but his dmg output is so awesome. I am mostly starting with target on demon summoned by demenologist and phoenix, or if enemy hits really hard i do stoneskin/mana spring first and phoenix goes on round 2. Of course i do not plan to use him on shettera and against dragons, thats his weakness ;p
