Xistence Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Pretty new to AoS. Played a few times over the last 4 months with a list from the two Start Collecting Boxes but I really like the sound of a fear based Drycha build. I would be taking this to tournaments as I am a tryhard. (Dreadwood Grove)HeroesDurthu - 340 (Jewl of Withering, General)Drycha - 320 (Regrowth)Treelord Ancient - 300 (Acorn of the Ages, Dwellers Below)Branchwych - 80 (Vesperal Gem, Verdurous Harmony)BattlelineSpite-Revenants - 60Spite-Revenants - 60Spite-Revenants - 60OtherKurnoth Hunters Scythes - 200Kurnoth Hunters Scythes - 200Kurnoth Hunters Bows - 200BattalionsFree Spirits - 140Outcasts - 100Total 1980Idea is to use teleports from Realmroots, Durthu, Ancient and Sinister Ambush to have total control over 1 objective, to then switch at a moment's notice. Drycha + Spites deal with hordes, Durthu/Hunters have rend to deal with high saves.Not sure if the Branchwych is better off as a Arch-Revenant or Branchwraith, but I'm not sure how good dryad summoning is. It seems really slow IMO. I also didn't include Wraithstone because it doesn't help Drycha's spell.Apart of me wants a better artifact for Durthu. And I'm not sure if the Vesperal Gem is as good as I think it is. Guaranteed revives on Kurnoth Hunters seem really good.Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osprey07 Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 I haven't purchased any spite revenants yet so I'm not sure how good they are in battle. As for the branchwych vs archrevenant and branchwraith it depends on if you want to summon dryads (I've been pretty successful with my summons) or boost your hunters, I tend to use my branchwych as a extra caster. I think they're all good choices it just depends on what kind of support you want Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arnied3 Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 If you are going fear based how about looking into some spells to support - Skullroot or the Horrorghasts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibs Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 Not that some points have changed Durthu 300 pts TLA 260 pts You actually have another 80pts to play around with 😀  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pennydude Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 I've thought about doing something like this and unfortunately, I think you need to run a lot more Spite Revenants along with a Horrorghast and Vengeful Skullroot. Spites die when a stiff breeze hits them so you need quite a lot of bodies in order to get their debuff to stick. Personally, I think the Free Spirit battalion ability is hot garbage so there's another 140pts to work with.  While I love Durthu, you really need to make him work instead of him working for you so IMHO, I'd drop him for more Kurnoths or Spite Revs. I do love me some Drycha and I think she's head and shoulders better than Durthu.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
