==Usage Notes==
 
Obviously, [[Pan's Flute]] will make you take less damage on defense, and thus every mage will benefit from it. 
 
 
 
On offense, if you sometimes lose battles because you are out-damaged, this will help.  Less obviously, if you have slow units, this will help a little more of them survive to make their attacks.  And since you'll be losing less units, you'll be able to make a more attacks before ending your run.
 
 
 
Because the reduction is a percent of <b>base</b> damage, this has less impact against units such as [[Treants]] that are normally massively boosted by other effects.  Conversely, it is very powerful when combined with AP reducing effects like [[Bard]] [[Song]].  Here is an example of two attacks made against the same mage, one a minute before obtaining [[Pan's Flute]], and one a minute after.  Note that in the second attack it exactly negates [[Lucifer]]'s favor, so all units except [[Treant]], [[Mandrake]], and [[Griffon]] have their normal [[AP]] and [[Counter]].

==Typical sale price==
 
I paid 310M for it just 10 days into the reset on Solo.  You should expect to pay much more than that in most circumstances.  [[User:Carltsai|Carltsai]] 02:05, 4 October 2008 (CEST)
