immortal (mage, Nazir, blue) defeated Vip.rus (Inferno, Grok, red) 2_1_7.
Nazir appeared in the tavern right away, and I chose him as the main hero. The third hero was Casper; I used him to collect money starting from the second week. In the first week, there was a shortage of funds – very little was generated, and the entrance to the adjacent area was also empty. I even had to skip a day of construction. But in the second week, everything seemed to work out; the hero leveled up well, quickly acquired Pyromancy, and his spell power increased normally. Casper started bringing in profits from the second adjacent area. Without logistics, it took a while to move around, but I managed to get defense.
Grok started to pull ahead from the middle of the third week... While I was clearing the resource area, he broke through to my adjacent area – apparently, he was already looking for a treasure, and it seems he found it towards the end of the fourth week. Since I was heading towards Chaos, there was no point in delaying, so I didn't even go to the central areas – I attacked the city at level 21 and started to attack the Guardian. In the Chaos castle, they didn't let me in at all, but I bought "just what the doctor ordered" – on the fourth week, I got the Staff of Sar and the Phoenix Cloak, and on the fifth week, the Tome of Chaos. By the end of the fifth week, I finally reached the enemy's city. Grok was already very strong: several gnome artifacts, the Armor of Forgotten, etc., and also with Light and Armageddon magic (I checked with Clairvoyance). But Armageddon did the trick, and I also had decent defense and a defense skill... If I hadn't managed it in the fifth week, I might not have been able to hold out. And in the battle, I think I should have cast Armageddon on the pits... Here's a demo of the final battle:
It happened that the demon had even higher stats in knowledge and spell power than the mage. But it's useless against this overpowered Armageddon, plus with the right artifacts and good leveling. The only problem was that I couldn't get fire resistance and the Fire Shield stubbornly didn't appear, and the person who came up with playing without a mentor is, to put it mildly, not a good person
