Tactics for playing as the Sylvan faction.

Hmm... could you provide a more detailed breakdown of the hero stats?

I think attack and defense values don't matter. Besides, I created the preset focusing only on knowledge. It just turned out that two heroes belong to different groups based on the number of points; otherwise, I would have simply posted a comparative replay.

First case (with the Sar-Issa set): the hero has 28 knowledge and 9 spellpower. 5 druids raise the hero's spellpower to 21, i.e., by 12.

Second case (without the Sar-Issa set): 29 knowledge, 6 spellpower. The same 5 druids raise the spellpower to 12, i.e., by 6.

I used 5 druids for greater clarity. Although, I think that when it comes to obtaining 2 or more Sar-Issa items, there will already be enough druids to raise the hero's spellpower, and doubling their role will play a part. After all, the knowledge of a Wood Elf is not always extremely high. Sometimes it may not be more than 10, and sometimes it can reach up to 15 with education. Artifacts can play a decisive role here.

I mainly use Holy Word against the Horde.

It can also be used against Necropolis and Inferno. When each of the enemy units receives approximately 500 damage, it's very powerful; the total damage dealt to the enemy will be 3500 units. Only the use of area-of-effect spells from the Chaos school can compare. And Unholy Word, of course. Not to mention that Righteous Fury, which enhances Holy Word, is associated with quite useful mass spells.

I don't know about you, comrade, but Light appears very quickly for me.

There is a chance that a monkey, randomly hitting the keyboard, will write the novel "War and Peace" without a single mistake on the first try. :) Similarly, you can play Heroes every day and easily level up a mage-warrior (attack, defense, leadership, logistics) without any difficulties. But the chance of such incredible luck (or bad luck?) is very small. I mean, you're just lucky with finding it. Recently, I haven't been lucky with leveling up summoning skills for the Necromancer, and there's a 10% chance.

And besides, there's a program - a scanner.

Let's keep those things for offline tournaments ;) The computer isn't very powerful anyway, so it's better to give it an extra advantage. And on online platforms, it's generally a prohibited thing.
