Darragh Wrathe

Warrior, sorcerer, and zealous follower of the Dragonfather, Darragh Wrathe ruthlessly commands Cryxian troops in the subjugation of the mainland. The howling of his countless victims follows the passage of Wrathe's hell-wrought iron steed as this necro-mechanikal horror rides to battle. He savors slaying the living whether by the razor edge of his scythe or a sudden eruption of spectral fire.

Thoughts on Darragh Wrathe

Darragh Wrathe in a nutshell

Darragh Wrathe is an expensive dragoon with a lot of good utility casting and, being cavalry, isn't bad in combat.

Combos & Synergies

• Death Ride works on Banes, Wraiths, and Thralls, as well as a few casters without those tags.
• A Brute Thrall both gets extra speed and protects Wrathe from incoming fire.
• Mortal Fear makes Bane Knights and Bloodgorgers in melee effectively ARM 20.
• Scaverous can TK him around and he gets a boosted Hellfire on feat turn.
• Any caster with a widespread ARM buff can stack it with Mortal Fear:
  • Asphyxious3 gives his jacks Unyielding.
  • Deathjack2 gives the entire army Unyielding.
  • Agathia stacks Mortal Fear with Death Shroud. She also has the benefit of Bane Knight Henchmen who will always appreciate Death Ride.
  • Goreshade1 stacks Breath Taker with Mortal Fear. He also summons a unit of Bane Warriors via his feat, who'll love Death Ride.
• Goreshade3 - He recurs the undead that Darragh speeds up, and Darragh is a pretty good Scything Touch target.

Drawbacks & Downsides

• His points cost is at the top of the spectrum for solos. For one point more you can get a Stalker!
• He's a big target (literally) and too expensive for his combat utility

Tricks & Tips

• Mortal Fear works against warbeasts.
• Charge a model, kill it (boosted rolls help), and then get a free spell before repositioning to safety.
