Ability Info

Glorious Death

Passive: Friendly units that die within a 25m radius of the banner immediatly return 20 / 24 / 28 / 33% of their original power costs into the power pool. The remaining power costs are granted as void power.

The benefit the Banner of Glory offers cannot be ignored, for its strength is significant in returning power from lost units. This allows banner of glory to be used both as a cushion in tough fights, and as a way to recycle unwanted units and return power. The banners effect is stronger the higher a creatures power cost is, making later-game units return a large amount of power if they are defeated, so it has applications across the entire game.

Rapid Construction

Passive: Construction time is reduced by 85%.

Rapid Construction enables the Banner of Glory to be constructed even in the center of a large battle, as it will finish construction incredibly quickly. If built next to a power well or monument, it constructs near-instantly. This can be used to build banners in offensive locations to benefit the assault.

Notes & Strategies

Banner of Glory is cheap, and provides many benefits. It should be used to provide cushion to a fight not in your favor, or to recycle previous era units that lack use to you.

Campaign PvE

Banner of Glory is a powerful application to any PVE Match, especially since maps can be learned. This allows you to plan where you place your banners, especially for tough fights you know units die in.

Banners additionally, help recycle creatures from previous eras that are no longer needed. This can be very helpful to build a stronger army faster, which can be invaluable for speedrunning.

Random PvE

Banner of Glory has similar applications in rPVE as it does in PVE, but the main difference is that Banner of Glory is used PRIMARILY as a recycling tool, rather than a cushion in battle. This is because it can stack with the Furnace of Flesh providing a powerful power refunding station.

Alternatively, the banner can be used for a fun strategy in rPVE: The Bug Deck.

PvP

Banner of Glory has many great applications in PVP.

Strengths

Refunds power from fallen units, friend or foe

Banner of Glory provides instant power refunding regardless of the units affiliation.

Constructs very quickly

Banner of glory can be oropped up just before or in a tough fight to provide the benefit.

Weaknesses

Banner of Glory is extremely fragile

This building has very low hit points. It will be destroyed very quickly if under attack.

Cannot attack enemies

Self explanatory.
