| Utgard's mages are more focused on sorcery paths, gaining good access to Death, Nature and Blood Magic, and some Astral, while the ??Jotun Skratti?? adds strong water magic. Skrattir is also the star unit when it comes to the commanders of Jotunheim, as they perform very well in different roles. They are shapeshifters and gain 10% regeneration in werewolf form, which makes them very good thugs with some equipment. This ability also enables turbo communions, which is one of the strong suits of Utgard, especially with how cheap. | Utgard's mages are more focused on sorcery paths, gaining good access to Death, Nature and Blood Magic, and some Astral, while the ??Jotun Skratti#3432?? adds strong water magic.
