Okay, thank you. And which skills are best to develop? For example, in Heroes 4, ranged combat is the most important, but what about here? And what magic can the Sylvan faction use to defend against other factions?

Oh, and I forgot something else...
What is the "Achilles' Tear"? It seems like you need it to fully build the entire Castle, but where do you get it?

Achilles' Tear is the Grail; you find it the same way as in other parts of the game – by digging it up.

Be strong. Believe

Elves are elves, so in Heroes 5, they also have very strong archers. But I can't give you any advice about magic.

Light will greatly enhance them all; it's very good magic for them. As for the others... I can't say... a challenge might be... and Chaos and Darkness rarely appear for them).

Well, for some reason, I often got Chaos as a random spell. But I agree about Darkness; it also appeared quite often. If you're focusing on magic, either buff spells of the Haven faction or powerful Chaos magic plus Enchanted Arrow are good choices.

This is their magic, although I didn't mind getting Darkness, but Light helped better, although I defeated everyone with Darkness too....

Since elves are known for their archers, it's good to play as Ossir (specialization - archers), but since you can't upgrade "Elven Luck" for him, it's better to play as Elfina (specialization - unicorns). Upgrades:
1) Luck (soldier's luck; luck of the road; elven luck);
2) Attack (tactics; battle frenzy; archery);
3) In my opinion, it's best to take Light magic (granting protection, granting blessing; righteous wrath), but you can also take summoning magic. It depends on who you're playing against. If it's against demons, it's better to take (master of spells; banishment; fire warriors), and if it's against mages, since they have 3 archers, it's better to take (master of earth; mist veil; master of spells).
4) Logistics (finding the way; silent hunter; native lands) / Education (attraction of magic; unraveling the secret; forest cunning) or Defense (steadfastness; staunch defense; readiness), again, depending on who you're playing against.:smile20: :smile49:

I think that even without the elven luck, Ossir is very strong, and especially the new upgrade for archers! They are incredibly powerful. They deal so much damage that no one can withstand them, but everyone focuses on them immediately...

I don't think the Elven Castle is weak; it's just well-balanced (meaning it doesn't have any significant advantages). By the way, this castle can easily defeat the Dungeon Castle, specifically Heroes of Might and Magic with their elemental chains and decent upgrades.

I don't know, I think the Elven Castle is a bit weak due to its overly good balance (meaning it doesn't have any significant advantages). By the way, this castle can quite easily defeat the "Dungeon" castle, or rather, heroes with magic, with their elemental chains and decent upgrades.

well, I don't know...
it's probably strong precisely because of this good balance) just like in Heroes of Might and Magic III)) IMHO

and not only Sylvan can defeat the Elven Castle, but the Elven Castle can defeat Sylvan as well))) I think many will agree.

Be strong. Believe

Elves are a strong faction if used skillfully (it all depends on the player). Demolight, you're underestimating the Elves. Due to their balance, they can offer a lot against any faction!

The strength of the Elves increases significantly when facing their sworn enemies. Otherwise, I wouldn't particularly single them out among the other factions.

Sworn enemy isn't a huge bonus, but some people might use it. Before (meaning before the Tribes of the East expansion), I didn't really like these skills because it's quite difficult to guess the opponent, but now it's okay, you can even level them up. The bonus is good when you're focusing on attack! But as the game shows, the Sylvan faction levels up everything moderately (attack, defense, strength, knowledge).

Arch-enemy is a very good bonus, and you can predict it if you play well.

I like the Elves. Because every time you play against an opponent (more often a human than the AI), you have to come up with various new tactics, but one mistake and it's game over. The Elves have a fairly flexible gameplay, which is what I like about them, but they are not a very strong faction in terms of creatures, and perhaps that's what makes them even more interesting to play.
