Now i've certainly been known to be wrong before..but if I remember correctly an invoker with 6 shields, barrier, aura, and shield will get like a 70 to 80 percent damage reduction I believe. Also a warrior cannot drive/pull his defenses away like an archon. *shrug* Just my thoughts.

> IMHO, master conjurers are infinitely more powerful (when prepared) than an invoker or transmuter. By my count the archon healed him 8 times (that's 1600 hp!). It looks like he had 790 or so to start, i.e., he had a total of 2390 hp. There is no way any mage can get close to that using barrier or transform, even with the rods. (Correct me if I'm wrong).
> Anyway, just pointing out that an invoker would not have lasted nearly that long.
