Also gives him 3 attacks if death's agi is high enough (don't do this to tank or deal damage to a creature with high dodge)T = power build nera/soul bond nera + Fool's essence of slyness. less luck dependent tank buildDD= soul bond Sisily. hey if your good on energy for the magic egg fight when it's immune to magic, why not?T = Hanged man pulls big power monster into corner while your other characters take of small monsters (not really a combo but a useful thought)DD/T = somehow glitch divine breath so it doesn't reset your attributes but give still gives the points to spend man can dream right?

Having Death's Stats against an opponent whose Agility is lowered by 4 is pretty amazing. With the Fool and the High Priestess active, and the Magician using Energy Transfer, Sisily can single-handedly tank the Normal Tale Memory due to her HP-leeching against the Tale Memory's mere 2 attacks per turn.So don't sneer at the idea of Soul Bonding Sisily.

I just looked at Sisily's guard perks, and they really don't become worth it till Mirror Guard. After that, when she gets Divine Retribution, she's so stupidly anit-magic that it scares me ,_,One question: Are perks still active if Soul-Bond is used on a charac

ot if they change stats, usually. Basically, Soul Bond transfers Power, Endurance, Magic, Agility, Defense, Dodge, HP, and the Vampirism perk (-14% base HP regen unaffected by Endurance but still affected by the High Priestess's aura, 5 + (level/4) percent HP leech from physical attacks). This means it doesn't transfer some things which perks can affect, such as ranges, movements, HP leeching (Vampirism is an add-on to an already-existent HP leech rate, which is 0 for most characters but not for Devil Hunters and Sharpshooters), any kind of Piercing, et cetera. Notably, Soul Bond also doesn't transfer Resist, even if that Resist is unaffected by perks. I'm not sure if this is a glitch or not (I haven't checked the code for Soul Bond yet; these are just my observations from using it a lot), but whatever the case, it's yet another reason that a Guard Sisily is great to Soul Bond: she ends up with very good Resist AND Endurance scores, which makes her an impressive t
