And here, Solmyr's chain lightning also helps in leveling up, and, unlike the wall of fire, it will be useful in a battle with a human.
Even the wall can be useful in a battle with a human. And in general, it seems strange to think that if a hero specializes in something, then he must necessarily use it in battle. There are plenty of various offensive spells in the Pandora boxes, and it is still unknown which hero will be stronger (Solmyr or Luna).

Even if you capture all the mines in the first week, by the third week you will have a maximum of 10 ducks (are you talking about Firebirds, am I right?), but there will be few of the other units, because there will be a shortage of money.
What mines? :eek: What shortage of money? If there is a Luna hero, does the treasury reset every turn? And if it's Solmyr, is there no problem with money? There are tons of resources on the map - take your pick. Additional sulfur in the medusa lairs and nagabanks, crystals - in the dwarf dwellings, mercury - in the imp dwellings, gems - with the leprechauns. Plus a lot of money. Ducks are wyverns that can be collected in the serpent nests. And you can collect a lot of them. In the wall, the serpentlings die quickly - by losing a little bit of fairies, we get ducks.

And where will a pack of angels come from by the third week? Unless you get lucky and stumble upon a Griffin Conservatory, but it will still be difficult to storm it.
Get lucky? There are these conservatories on every map. :D Found the minimum - opened it. It only takes 6 spell power for this. And if you find only 2 angels, you can break through almost everything, and then you don't even need the wall.

How will you have a Luna hero if you are not playing as Conflux, because the chance of finding her in the tavern is extremely small?
No matter how small it is, but if I dig her up in the tavern in the first week, she will be the main hero. (there were such cases - Luna for a dungeon, for example) :cool:
Er@ser
Even if the hero is Luna, it is still completely irrational to spend mana on some kind of wall, because the damage from it is very small at the beginning. And a pumped-up hero will find something more solid.
Let's calculate. 2*(3*10+10)=80 is the damage that each fragment (there are two) of the wall deals with basic fire. The wall lasts for 2 turns. Running the monsters through both fragments 2 times will result in 320 damage, and all for only 6 mana. And if you also pump up fire magic (which I actually advise in this topic), then the damage increases.

Judging by your previous post, you're playing random maps in the campaign. That's not very interesting; there's always an easy way to win. Try playing at least the standard difficulty, and the resource situation will become much worse, not to mention player-created maps. There are no "Gutalinas" in Heroes, but "Conservatories of Griffons" do appear, albeit rarely. And how do you determine the number of griffons inside? Save-loading? Come on, that's not fair. And, by the way, I didn't say that "if the hero is Solmyr, there won't be any money problems," there will be, of course. If a hero specializes in something, they should use it in as many situations as possible.

You become a hero near the Conservatory but don't enter it. Then, you right-click and see who's guarding it. If it's a horde of griffons, it means there's one angel inside, and you can confidently go in. If it's a crowd, it means there are 2-4 angels, and it's risky to go in without checking, but in this case, you can either take a risk or check for 2500 gold by sending in a secondary hero. It's also possible that there's an upgraded stack, and you can determine that the Conservatory has 2 angels, meaning many royal griffons and a horde of regular ones.

I completely agree with you. I myself never use save-loading. Moreover, if I manage to win a couple of angels in the conservatory, I immediately fire them.

Fire is good. But generally, I have mixed feelings.

Judging by your previous post, you're playing with random map settings. That's not very interesting; there's always an easy way to win. Try playing with a standard map, and the situation will become much more difficult, not to mention player-created maps.
That's right. I find it interesting because each map is different and unknown.
What are these "standard" maps? :confused: I haven't come across any good, player-made multiplayer maps (if you know of any, please let me know; I'd be happy to try them) because they all seem to require some kind of "balance." Also, there's no freedom of choice – you immediately have to rush, for example, to the north for ore, then to the south for something else. Everything is standardized by the map creator, it's all predictable and well-known. You can play a few times and find the optimal development strategy for that map. But randomness is randomness.

Well, you can't really use save-loading in multiplayer. The method has already been described above; it's as fair as it gets. :D

Probably yes... Personally, I can write several times! I need to create posts!:D
Yes, yes...:mad: I have been visiting the forum for a very long time, but I didn't get around to registering. I work a lot, so I have few posts, but when I have a happy day off:smile44: and I visit the forum, I don't start writing nonsense, but try to write on topic and develop my thoughts. Your aspiration...:mad:

Love rules the world!!!

If you love your enemy, it means Fire

If you love yourself, it means Water

If you don't love anyone, it means Air

Well, if you chose Earth, it means you're from GreenPiz, and your love is for creatures and monsters...

And if you're not into magic, it means you can only play Heroes with noobs! :smile33:

P.S. Those who disagree, leave a message here.

I practically don't use water. Fire is the thirst for blood, a curse, blindness. Air is flight, a doorway to other dimensions. Earth is a city portal and an explosion.

Well, there's also Haste and Lightning in the air – the best offensive spell of the second level. In the earth, there's the Slow spell, which is still more useful than the Explosion. And in fire, there's Berserk, which is also a good thing.

No... Let those who heavily rely on magic play with noobs. I'd rather play Heroes of Might and Magic. You don't need much imagination or skill to just mindlessly blow everyone up with explosions or some special weapon. :smile42:

Actually, everything depends on the situation.
But, in my opinion, if you learn the Town Portal spell at the highest level of Earth magic, you've practically won the game.

In my opinion, the most awesome earth magic spells are: slowing, resurrection, raising the dead, portal to town, and explosion (level 5). Air magic is second best: acceleration, various lightning spells, flight, and gates.
