Dragonbane gem on Deamon Prince; Ward save question

If I give the Dragonbane gem to a Tzeenchian Deamon Prince is the ward save modified to 3+?
The warriors book states that a ward save cannot be better than 3+ with the reroll.

I want a DP to hunt flaming units so my trolls can roll over everything else.

The Dragonbane Gem confers a 2++. Daemon of Tzeentch does not alter the ward save at all.

Such a thing is never stated anywhere in the book.

I mean, the Mark of Tzeentch says that it brings Ward saves down to a maximum of 3+, and Daemon of Tzeentch just states that you reroll 1's on Ward saves. Maybe your brain mashed them both together somehow?

The DP doesnt get a +1 Ward from. MoT. Just rerolls doesnt he?

Correct Tzeentch DP rerolls 1s for his ward save and when channeling which is a nice combination with the dragonbane gem as if you happen to fail that +2 ward you can reroll it.

Especially helpful against Skullcannons and flaming Dwarf cannons! Also the Luminark's bound spell, if I recall correctly. :)

Yup, mandatory on a DP along with charmed shield imo.
