Walkthroughs for custom maps.

Well, 11 months is still acceptable. But when it's 18 months or more, it gets really tiring.

You should play the "Dunkler HorizontV02" version.

1. It's actually possible to do it faster; I just wasted a lot of time (and after defeating the Ashwing, I relaxed in terms of pace)... I think that ideally, I could have completed this map in 9 months.
Perhaps some skilled players might be able to complete it in under 8 months (we're talking about a fair playthrough, without cheating on mana points), but I can't say for sure.
The thing is, the longer we progress towards the red, cyan, brown, and purple levels, the harder it will be to complete this map.
The battles are what get tiring; after two battles with 80+ rounds, you run out of patience and the desire to continue playing the map that day (especially if you make a mistake in that terrible battle and have to start over, replaying all 50+ rounds)...
There are maps where 20+ months will pass faster in real time than 5-6 in-game months on a paragon map.
By the way, if you're interested, I can tell you separately about a "not entirely fair" playthrough of a paragon map, as I've made many different attempts to complete it...

2. Thanks, I'll try it, and I'll definitely write about the results later.
But I'll probably try both versions of the map later
